Gervais also spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about playing the cat Tabby Gus. He said, “I don’t have to do hair and makeup; I don’t have to get up early. The cats never get old. So as I get older and fatter, I can still sit in a chair and continue to make this forever.” The tagline for the series is “Nine lives, zero f***s.”
