Netflix has released another comedy special with transphobic material.
In his new stand-up special "SuperNature," which hit the streaming service Tuesday, Ricky Gervais begins making jokes about "old-fashioned women," "new women" and transphobic concerns about public restrooms almost immediately, before launching into an extended bit against "cancel culture" and "woke comedy."
The hourlong special arrives amid Netflix's attempts to navigate slowing revenue growth after announcing last month that it lost 200,000 subscribers during the first quarter of 2022. Since then, the streaming giant has cut jobs and contract positions, including those related to social media accounts that were focused on promoting content to people of color and the LGBTQ community.
