The second season (or "series") of Ricky Gervais' sublime comedy of awkward interactions kicks things off in fine style, as Gervais' perennially put-upon character actor Andy finds himself in an unlikely position: success. The former movie extra has been upgraded to the enviable position of star of his own show. But as television execs ask him to make more and more concessions, will Andy end up being his own worst enemy? In a subplot involving Andy's extra pal Maggie, Orlando Bloom plays himself -- or an insecure version of himself.
