‘Life’s Too Short’ is one of the funniest shows on television. Warwick Davis does a fantastic job portraying himself as an egotistical, washed-up actor. The celebrity cameos are the highlight of each episode, and boy do they deliver. My particular favorites are Liam Neeson and Helena Bonham Carter. I was in tears! It’s a real shame that show wasn’t rewarded a second season, but HBO reports that a Special will run to properly close out the series.
Are you a fan of Warwick Davis, Ricky Gervais or Stephen Merchant? Don’t be a wanker! Pick up a copy of ‘Life’s Too Short’ The Complete First Season.

Just finished watching the entire season. Cracks me up every time!
I’m sure I’ll rewatch this again on HBOGo before the Special airs. It will certainly be announced here on HBOWatch when that Special does makes its debut.
