I believe this is the entire opening monologue. It's awesome, particularly the end. Ricky out there scorching the Earth!

Yahoo writes a story about Gervais' opening.

The important thing to note is the overwhelming percentage of user comments in full agreement with Gervais.

Meanwhile, tech world titan, Tim Cook, looked on stone-faced as Gervais praised Apple TV+’s marquee series The Morning Show as a “superb drama about the importance of dignity and doing the right thing made by a company who owns sweatshops in China. You say you’re woke but the companies you work for — Apple, Amazon, Disney — if ISIS started a streaming service, you would call your agent, wouldn’t you?

Brutal, but I mean, nothing's going to change.

Who is the person in that Tweet?

Watch the whole monologue when you get a chance. The crowd shots are amazing. Gervais is talking to a group of people who only ever talk to yes men and people that worship them. Here's a guy who had them trapped and shit all over them.

No idea, was quoting for the text.

Is that sarcasm?

71% of voters at this site loved Gervais and want him to host again.

I don't think so, but a good chunk of Hollywood reporters' jobs require a high level of fealty to maintain access.

Sounds like an idiot.

Yeah, I'm not sure he improved the image he portrayed of himself with that clarification.

I enjoy how he worked sexist and homophobic into it, yet Gervais made no jokes that could be defined as either.

I don’t know. Some movie reviewer.

Now I'm dying to know who he thinks is allowed to consider herself a woman. SInce he considers them to not be, and he's gatekeeping.

Butt hurt bigot at The Guardian trying to spin Gervais' monologue as a failure.
