The Ricky Gervais netflix show After Life is not good. I'm sorry, I know it's massively popular but I think it has serious issues with character, plot, repetitive jokes, a lack of depth, and some worrying messages about grief and obviously about therapy. Whilst I like some of Ricky Gervais work, After Life was not an enjoyable watch, so I thought to make a videoessay giving analysis as to what went wrong. Another addition to my Analysis of a Trainwreck series.

My Little Thought Tree is my channel for drawing out the deeper meaning and emotion in film, TV, and the world at large through relaxed, analytical video essays. I am a professional counsellor and often draw on my psychology and therapy background to better understand characters, themes, and emotion in fiction. I upload every Saturday and occasionally on Tuesdays, if I'm feeling productive.
