I just watched the 4th episode of After Life, a comedy (of sorts) written, directed by and staring Rickie Gervais.
His wife has died and he is considering suicide (not funny so far--but it is). He works for a small newspaper in England and has, as he tells a co-worker in this episode, never tried to 'move up' because all he wanted to do was get home and be with his wife.
It's on Netflix, if you have that, and is really warm and tender and, in it's own way, funny.
Rickie Gervais is one of the wonders of our time. You can find him all over you tube too.
Well worth finding and watching.
(See, I got through a whole post without being political!!! But it was hard.)
