Ricky Gervais has risen from relative obscurity in England to become one of the world's biggest multi-media superstars. The award-winning actor and co-creator of 'The Office' and 'Extras' returns to HBO for his first-ever stand-up special on the network. Taped live before a sold-out audience at the WaMu Theater at New York City's Madison Square Garden, the special is a high-spirited hour of Gervais' offbeat observations and understated humor. Topics include his unique takes on such disparate (and often politically incorrect) issues as fund-raising, autism, fame, nursery rhymes, Nazis, moronic friends, obesity and more.
