Next up is Ricky Gervais' After Life; a 6-episode series currently streaming on Netflix. After Life is about Tony who lost his wife and who lets his grief lead him down a path of nihilism. I think the series does an excellent job at not only portraying grief in connection to existential uncertainty and suffering, but also at formulating an answer to nihilism that, all together, reminded me a lot of the writings of Albert Camus, C.S. Lewis and David Foster Wallace, and will be examined mainly through the lenses of their work.
