New York, N.Y., January 6, 2011 - HBO is offering an online sneak peek of the entire first episode of the second season of The Ricky Gervais Show, the hilarious animated version of Gervais' smash-hit podcasts that earned a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records for the most downloads.

Topics covered in season two include 21st-century scientific innovations, bizarre medical stories, Ricky's pet project to "Get Karl Famous" and Karl's fascination with doppelgangers and twins. Also included are the regular features "Monkey News," in which Karl describes the role banana-trained monkeys played in early space exploration, and readings from Karl's diary.
