This guy gets it:
What in God’s Name Happened to Ricky Gervais?
quote:
SOMEWHERE OVER THE LAST DECADE, Ricky Gervais lost it. His nosedive is fairly puzzling: in just a few years, the man who inaugurated a new era of TV with The Office went from one of the most original voices in comedy to a complete gasbag. His stand-up comedy is excruciating, his movies are instantly forgettable, and his smug, dorm-room atheism makes any self-respecting unbeliever want to convert to Wahhabi Islam just as a personal frick you.
In short—to paraphrase a bit of dialogue from one of his contemporaries, Armando Iannucci—Gervais has gone from the guy everyone loves to hate to the guy everyone just hates. From Simon Cowell to Piers Morgan.

his demeanor and rants about atheism haven't changed in the 15+ years he's had stand up specials.
It's not HIM that's changed...it's society/the audience

No he doesn’t. The world changed around Ricky. Ricky I think is still largely the same and funny. It’s kind of like how a decade ago Bill Maher was most far on the Left in Late Night, but now he’s the furthest to the Right, which is fricking insanity since I don’t think he’s changed much.
The world has lost its mind. Ricky seems to be the only British comic outraged by the guy with the Nazi Pug being found guilty, and every other comic is silent over it. Where’s the mass protests over this?

Merchant had all the talent.
