Whilst speaking about this ending, Tony star, creator, and director of After Life, Ricky Gervais touched upon whether there will be a third season in the coming years on Netflix.

He confessed: “The answer is: I don’t know about a season three.”

Despite this, he went on: “For the first time ever I would do a season three, because the world is so rich.

“I love the characters, I love all the actors in it, I love my character, I love the town, I love the themes.”

“I love the dog!” Ricky added with a chuckle. “So I would do a third!”

Despite his enthusiasm on looking for a third season, Ricky did go on to explain how he would not jump at the chance if it simply arose.

He continued: “But it’s got to be a real demanded-for encore. I’m not going to just do it.

“If this goes down a storm, and Netflix call me next week and say: ‘Listen, It’s gone through the roof – everybody loves it, we’d love to do a third,’ then I would.

“But I wouldn’t do it for the sake of it. I wouldn’t do it just to get paid, or because they want another show.”

Ricky went on to call the proposal of a third season “really daunting”.

“Particularly when you put all your eggs in one basket,” he added.
