AFTER LIFE
March 8, 2019  | By David Bianculli

Netflix, 3:00 a.m. ET

 

SERIES PREMIERE: Ricky Gervais stars in this new Netflix series, and also wrote and directed it. He plays a recent widower living a morose and solitary life (except for his dog), going through the paces of visiting his ailing father (who has dementia) and working at a tiny local “free” newspaper (where he’s assigned pitifully dull feature stories). Co-stars include the endearing Ashley Jensen, from Ugly Betty and Gervais’ own Extras – and, as always, there’s a message, and a warm heart, beneath the surface of Gervais’ characters and TV series.
