Ricky Gervais' Humor Is Dated, Not Daring
Based on his past hosting stints, everyone expected Ricky Gervais to make edgy jokes. What was surprising was that this year his humor was so out of date. His jokes about Jeffrey Tambor playing a transgender character, after Tambor's Emmy for the role in 2015 and Caitlyn Jenner's very public transition, made Gervais seem like he's been living in a cave since the last time he hosted the show.
