Did anyone watch this? He absolutely ripped into Paedowood, Apple, Amazon, etc.

Here's the opening speech: https://twitter.com/DisorientYouth/status/1214178074645925889

He is great! I always like seeing the audience's faces.

they had his funniest jokes on the BBC site. apparently, anyway. would've hated to see what his unfunniest were.

That was just brilliant.

Neither can I, but the looks on the faces of the Great and the Good of Hollywood as he absolutely ripped the **** out of them was priceless.

Absolute genius. Only Ricky has the balls and the personality to pull that stuff off. I'm waiting for videos to appear of him introducing the guests, there surely has to be more insults during the show.

The part about not preaching to the public was the best.

wedrum · 6 Jan 2020 at 19:22

Had me in stitches

Tim Cook didn't look very impressed

"Lets have a laugh at your expense shall we. Remember, they're just jokes. We're all gonna die soon and there's no sequel."

Just imagine if Frankie Boyle was somehow allowed to do a major America awards show... it would make Ricky Gervais look like The Pope.

SlyReaper · 6 Jan 2020 at 21:12

Loved seeing people in the audience, with faces like thunder. And some pretending to laugh, but clearly not enjoying themselves one bit.

He's an insufferable moraliser too, so seeing him called out for just one of the unethical things his company does was supremely satisfying.

Nah, Frankie got woke and safe. He's a pale shadow of the man he was on Mock the Week.

That was EXACTLY what Hollywood needed to be honest... Let's hope theres a little self reflection going on

Such a tedious comedian, thinks he’s far more controversial and interesting than he is.

I think you'll find it's the powers that be who think he’s far more controversial and interesting than he is.

Savage, how’s he been invited back so many times

SkeeterUK · 7 Jan 2020 at 01:45

His mate from idiot abroad would have been better, the complainer that went around the world.

~>Dg<~ · 7 Jan 2020 at 04:13

b00merang69 · 7 Jan 2020 at 07:11
