After Life premiered on Netflix at the start of the month.
The show follows Tony, a local newspaper journalist, whose wife has died.
Struggling to cope with his grief, Tony decides to give up his nice guy act and punish the world by doing and saying whatever he likes.
But his friends and family step in to help, and Tony's new carefree life ends up being a little trickier than he had intended.
Gervais wrote, directed and stars in the comedy.
Speaking to NME he said that After Life was, “the most dramatic, the darkest and the most uncompromising," piece of work he's ever created.
“Some people will love it, some people will hate it, most people won’t know it exists, so I’m all for that.”
All six episodes of After Life are streaming on Netflix now.
