Critics Consensus

Mean-spirited and clunky in execution, Ricky Gervais' latest special is more obnoxious than edgy.

It baffles why Gervais, a man who is clearly very smart, loves animals, has professed support for vulnerable communities and has condemned racism, homophobia and misogyny, continues to traffic in exactly that in the name of comedy.

If trans people are to be thrown to the wolves of comedy, one would hope the wolves would at least be funnier.

Independent (UK)

The problem with SuperNature, as with much comedy these days, progressive or irreverent, is that it finds itself sucked into the self-referential death spiral of the culture wars.

Rated: 2/5

National Review

Everyone knows Gervais does these sorts of bits, so there’s no surprise factor in SuperNature. I hate to alarm Gervais, of whom I am a fan, but it’s possible that this new hour of standup won’t cause any protests.

Gervais reflects upon and provokes to gift us a collection of the best jokes in these times of overplayed [political] correctness. [Full review in Spanish]

The guy is just an achingly conventional millennial posing as a naughty maverick.

Those who frequently arrive at the joke's inception are the ones who voiced complaints regarding Mr. Gervais. Great caliber of humor! Top tier! Top echelon!

One of my first peak into British comedy and boy does Ricky make me laugh. I remember so much from this standup, because a lot of these skits were really iconic. I love that Ricky has a distinct take on humanity and can round the audience into an agreement that there is nothing else to do than take his side and just have a laugh.

Fantastic stand-up and one of the best comedy minds of our time. Great set as usual. There are many who complain about Gervais’s subject matter, but they should be ignored. Anyone who uses the term “punching down” has no business judging comedy as laughter is not one of their priorities.

It's the least good of the specials but it's really really good. This one has more positive tones and as strange as it sounds they're the worst things about it

Ricky is on point again with his observations and his opinions based upon those. Hilarious from beginning to end. He has surpassed one of my (fallen) favorites, Louis CK.
