Extras is a truly terrific comedy television series,the show is full of laughs in every single episode,and I really don't see anything not to like about this series.The cast is pitch perfect,and the writing from Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant is terrific,which is no surprise from these two.If your a fan of The Office,I would strongly recommend Extras.I would be happy if the show went on longer,but it still is a clever move from Gervais and Merchant to quite while their ahead instead of going till they run out of ideas.Every episode has a very big celebrity in it,they've had unexpectedly huge names on this show,to name a few,Ben Stiller,Kate Winslet,Samuel L Jackson,Orlando Bloom,Robert De Niro,this list goes on and they all play themselves brilliantly.The show myth only have thirteen episodes,but no bad episodes,and the finale is about eighty minutes long,I will admit I found it to be a bit of a disappointing final episode,but its still a funny,and surprisingly emotional,end to the series.
Andy Millman (Ricky Gervais) works as an extra on many big budget movies with his friend Maggie (Ashley Jensen),because Andy doesn't have any a great agent in Darren Lamb (Stephen Merchant) to help him get to the top.
