The second season of Ricky Gervais dramedy Derek is now available on Netflix as a Netflix original. While it debuted in the UK on Channel 4, it’s considered a Netflix Original in other countries like the U.S.
Here’s the show’s description if you’re unfamiliar with it:
Ricky Gervais, creator of the original British version of “The Office,” produces and stars in this heartwarming comedy-drama as Derek Noakes, a loyal English nursing home caretaker who sees only the good in everyone. Derek’s sunny outlook comes in handy with his quirky coworkers and friends as they struggle against prejudice, government bureaucracy, and constantly shrinking budgets to care for the elderly residents who depend on them.
Netflix original enthusiasts have a week to burn through this before Orange is the New Black makes its return, which shouldn’t be too hard as there’s only six 23-minute episodes. If you haven’t watched the first season yet, do yourself a favor and watch that too. It really is good stuff.
As far as other upcoming Netflix shows, Orange is the New Black: Season 2 debuts on June 6th, and Hemlock Grove: Season 2 debuts on July 11th.
