Product Description
The complete scripts of the award-winning series, with exclusive behind-the-scenes photographs by Rich Hardcastle. Meet Andy Millman, actor. Never forgets his lines because he never gets any. And meet Maggie Jacobs, actor. Would love to throw herself into a good part, but she's more likely just to put her foot in it. With an agent who works part-time at Carphone Warehouse, sometimes you have to take a small role on the path to acting fame. But now, after years spent struggling to make it big, Andy has landed a pilot for his sitcom script. Will he finally get the recognition he craves? Extras: the Scripts is the perfect memento for fans of the show and a stylish record of the astonishing writing talent of Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant.

I have discovered that I am not much of a Gervais fan, vis-a-vis "The Office", but I do find this as one of his better jobs. I haven't viewed the related DVDs, so I don't know how these scripts work out visually, but they do work well on the page, though you have to be a fan of Gervais's particular brand of humor to really enjoy them.

Extras is another Gervais and Merchant masterpiece. Not only are the DVDs essential, but also these detailed, amazingly crafted scripts. Extras is a lesson in structure, dialog, and that delicate balance between big laughs and melancholic poetry. Every word, every silence, every movement is carefully but affectiously planned in order to work.
No wonder Ricky Gervais says he wants to write a more dramatic TV series in the future. Between the comedy, where the surpringly touching sadness lies, Extras shows that him and Stephen Merchant can be the authors of the next Sopranos... Please, HBO and BBC - don't let them go, and give these guys the money and the freedom to create another TV legend!
