Para #SextaSerie cujo tema é “séries de comédia dramática”, trago novamente "Derek" (2012-2014). Criada, dirigida e estrelada por Ricky Gervais. Os episódios são uma montanha-russa de emoções: do chocante / vergonha alheia até algo bem tocante e singelo.

Derek

I haven’t had the chance to watch #Gervais’ #Derek but have seen some outtakes and discussion (all via #YouTube). Even saw a ‘Best of Dougie’ 25 minutes. There’s a bit where Derek asks the ever-exasperated Dougie, driving the minibus, ‘If all the bangers (tiny fireworks) were attached to an atomic bomb would it make a bigger bang’. Something like that. Such a brilliant thing for Derek to say. Gervais intrigued me as a person. ‘Derek’ even though I’ve had to #extrapolate, as it were, from partial data, is a wonderful creation. Derek is blessed with the unceasing intrigue of so many of us. To look to the stars or across an ocean or in a rock pool or at a forest, a city even, is to begin that journey.
