Netflix Announces Release Date For ‘Ricky Gervais: Humanity’

If the little bit of Ricky Gervais you get every week as part of the ABC game show Child Support is not enough for you, then you’ll be happy to know that there is a big helping of the UK comic coming your way on Netflix.

Gervais’ next stand-up special, titled Ricky Gervais: Humanity, will see the Office co-creator take on new topics like, well, humanity. Specifically, the synopsis says the “scathing” special will include Gervais’ take on aging and having kids. Odds are this will be a lot different than the light-hearted chuckles you get on Child Support, what with Netflix using the word “scathing” to describe the special.

After initially announcing the special earlier this month, Netflix has revealed via their comedy-focused Twitter account Netflix Is A Joke that Humanity will arrive on the streaming service on March 13.

Until then, you’ll have to get your Gervais fix every week on Child Support, where he interviews kids for the answers to questions that adults need to get right in order to win big bucks. And if you want to ramp up to the more adult-oriented Gervais we’re all familiar with, you can work your way through all of his other content available on Netflix, like The Office and Extras.
