The Internet is definitely more primed to meme and/or “think piece” everything Ricky does as host than it was 2012, the last year he hosted.

Ricky Gervais hosted The Golden Globes three years in a row and ruffled some feathers, particularly of those in attendance, during that stint for his roast-style hosting. 

After three years of the power duo of Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, we wonder what Gervais will have up his sleeve and if he’ll go more or less aggressive throughout the telecast.

So, in the same year, Chris Rock and Ricky Gervais will have hosted major awards shows, which seems like more than just happenstance.
