After Life follows Tony Johnson, a newspaper writer whose life is turned upside down after his wife dies from breast cancer. Contemplating suicide, Tony instead decides to punish the world by saying and doing whatever he wants regardless of how it affects others. Though he thinks of this as his "superpower," his plan is undermined when he realizes he does care about certain people. Created by and starring Ricky Gervais, the series is set in the fictional town of Tambury and explores themes of grief, depression, and finding meaning through helping others despite overwhelming loss.
