We want to be able to go down the TV Show rabbit hole with these suggestions, and eventually we will. Currently doing 30-50min video reactions just isn't possible for us. We'd have to drop down to 2-3 uploads a week. As soon as we are able we will most certainly be reacting to these suggestions!
That is 100% Karl's real personality, he is not acting. He is just a grumpy Northerner that hates being pushed outside his comfort zone. Ricky knew this and made a TV series called 'An Idiot Abroad' and tortured Karl by sending him all over the world and making him get involved with (extremely) foreign culture - A must-watch!
I feel like The Ricky Gervais Show is the perfect start to that journey though. You get so much more context and a 'feel' for who Karl really is in that show. He comes off as just a whingey person (which he is) in The Idiot Abroad if you haven't seen much of him before.
@@benharris144 Nah, the XFM shows are the start of it all. I hate that people watch the animated show first since it's mostly just a rehash of what they'd already talked about on the XFM radio show.
Please watch an idiot abroad ! It’s so funny ! Ricky sends Carl around the world and sets Carls inventory for the trip , the things he makes him do will get you laughing from the get go . Enjoy !
Maybe it's not saying his persona is an act. Maybe it's because of the fact he has gone on to act in some programs so that's why he is also now able to be described as an actor. Although of course, I wouldn't say acting is his main thing or what he's mostly known for.
Karl was a producer at a radio station called XFM. Ricky got a show there and Karl was brought in as his producer, and from day 1 Ricky was fascinated by how his brain works.
@@simonbuggles431he was a product primarily editing and doing the background work. Prior to the office where Ricky and Steve co wrote they both worked at x FM on the desk but no where near Karl and Karl may not have been there at the time. When Ricky and Steve finished the office they were offered to come back to X FM and they had their own show and Karl was assigned as the producer. But when they realised Karl being Karl they started to have him on the show and it went from there.
you have just opened up a huge rabbit hole watching Karl Pilkington, he is a fucking legend and you will have plenty more to react to involving him. A True British gem
@@svenlima I'm not sure I would call karl pilkington an artist but I say that because he is funny as fuck and there is a ton of different content he's been in that more than worth a watch.
@@svenlima I kinda get for that for most but I'm still not sure that's what Karl is, you wouldn't class some random funny person you meet down the pub an artist. That's the sort of category I feel Karl falls in to be honest.
I've watched the Ricky Gervais show SO many times now, it's like I have it memorized. I sometimes put it on when I can't sleep. Still gets a laugh out of me.
Even though I’ve seen all of Ricky and Karl’s videos, I have never laughed so hard than when watching it with you guys. Thank you both, you’ve made my day. Best reaction channel EVER.
Yes they are legends, and leaves you crying out for more! Thanks you two for adding an extra layer of laugher, glad you appreciate our english humour xxx
Yes, these two are comedy legends who leave you crying out for more! Thanks you two for adding an extra layer of laughter. Glad you appreciated our English sense of humour xxx
The best thing about An Idiot Abroad is it's all these exotic, far-flung places and experiences that most of us would love to do, but Karl is just a common, working class, down to earth, moany Northern bloke who doesn't want to go anywhere and anything outside the North of England is way outside his comfort zone; he's the type of Brit that goes to Spain then spends the whole time looking for a British pub, serving British food and British beer, looking for shops selling British newspapers, refusing to speak a word of Spanish, then moaning the whole holiday about it being too hot!
If you're not overly familiar with Karl - you might not know that this is just him being himself. They wouldn't have scripted any of this. Ricky just basically taunts Karl and they film it cos it is funny as F.
Karl is in our hearts as a national treasure. He is just himself; authentic. And makes comments that are funny, without realizing himself that he is funny. Ricky says that Karl is blessed with comic timing that every comedian would die to have. For Ricky, Karl is the funniest man in the world. Karl is an unintentional funny man. And a great part of his appeal is down to the fact that Karl thinks differently to most people. He is a gift to the world! 'An Idiot Abroad' is classic tv and will show Karl's grumpy, simple way of life disrupted constantly by Gervais and Merchant. Though ,maybe 'The Ricky Gervais podcast' - the animated version - might be the first place to start on the journey. Or even the shorts, 'Meet Karl Pilkington' parts 1 and 2.
Karl is already a legend in the UK...his 3 seasons of an idiot abroad from about 15 years ago are hilarious. Ricky sends him to various locations around the world but basically sets him up with bad hotels and even worse situations..Karl's got books out now too which are very funny....Great reaction 😂
You have got to do the Ricky Gervais show - Karl’s diary. I think if you watched that Jess would pass out laughing 😂it’s so much funnier than this even
I just knew jess would split her sides laughing that's why myself and others suggested it! Ricky is a comic genius, No script Karl didn't know what he was in for that's why it's a lot funnier! Watched it dozens of times and it never fails to make me laugh😂 So happy you have now shown it. I have been awaiting jessis face erupting with laughter for a time now I knew she would love it! Seen Ricky live and cried with laughter! 😂🎉🎉🎉❤ Please show more xx
Karl Pilkington in an Idiot Abroad series 1 episode 1 China is the first episode and is extremely funny and Carl has been obsessed with China since his experience you will love it and won't be disappointed disappoint a great reaction thank you
Karl was a producer at the station that Ricky did his podcast. Ricky thought he was hysterical so started bringing him on the podcast. Karl is the real deal and not acting.
Normally the reaction things I find pointless when they just explain what they've seen and stoic faces with little reaction. You guys are entertaining. You have a nice chemistry and I love the laughing.
There are hours and hours of Karl, Ricky and Steve Merchant. It's absolute gold. This is really how Karl is. Hecwas a producer for Ricky and Steves Radio show back in the early 2000s and one day they let him speak on air and the rest is history.
I have watched that 'pilot' a dozen times and laugh out loud each and every time. But seeing you guys enjoy it so much made it even funnier because you are Americans. My cheeks are sore from laughing at the comedy genius with your reactions on top. Thanks from the UK. Good comedy is universal. Subscribed! Love you guys
Oh guys, you so so so so so so need to watch the Ricky Gervais show. You'll cry from start to finish, steven merchant, ricky gervais and karl all sat in a room just talking, it's brilliant.
Ricky and Karl together is always hilarious. I've only recently discovered you guys who are fast becoming my new fave reaction couple......Jess's laugh is so infectious 😂
I am so grateful for you guys for putting this on here. It’s the first time I’ve watched Karl Pilkington and will certainly be trawling RUclips to find the recommendations suggested in the comments. I really do think you need to make the Title of this reaction better as I am stunned at how few have watched or commented on ii and its pure genius. I’m from the uk and have watched lots of what you have shown so far and this is the best so far. Brilliant!
Hey guys !! Thank you soo much you !! I had a real shitty day at work and shitty train journey home soo much negative energy. But you guys have just really lifted my day.
I have spent the last 20 years going to sleep listening to the original xxx radio show: Ricky gervais show with StevE Merchant and Karl Pillington. It’s where they discovered Karl. He was a producer on their show, and off air his normal conversation had them dying with laughter so they invited him on air and a legend was born. He was never acting he was being himself and I used to laugh so hard while out and about listening to them I looked like a madman
Karl isn't actually a comedian. Ricky just found a lot of unintentional comedic value in his dry matter of fact responses to everything and took the opportunity to involve him in his work.
I think that is the one only I’ve been looking for episode 2 to know avail. I cry with laughter every time I’ve seen this and I’ve seen it about 20 times.
@hmu05366 I concur. Kate Winslet really embraced the part,I haven't told many people but I nearly died laughing @ barry from eastenders got caught playing with that pen behind the desk,it was Ricky's disstain look,& Barry's quick confession. My head nearly exploded then anxiety kicked in I had to calm myself down ,I felt a panick attack, that was the shock of the comedy it was so unexpected even though steve merchant got caught ist.
History time- Ricky Gervais worked at a small radio station in London called XFM, because he took on more jobs at the station (and being quite lazy) he hired an assistant, that ended up being Stephen Merchant. XFM got taken over, the new bosses let them go, Ricky and Steve created “The Office” TV show to huge acclaim. XFM asked them to come back, they agreed but only on the condition that they didn’t have to do any real work like pressing the buttons and running their show, so XFM provided them with another XFM employee to do the work, someone from the production department - it was Karl Pilkington. Ricky and Steve would talk to Karl off air, realised he was hilarious so brought him on air as their 3rd man. After a few years they all left together to start their own podcasts, which were a success. HBO then gave them a TV show, where they took the podcasts and animated their real conversations as cartoons called “The Ricky Gervais Show”, which are well worth a reaction 😉 they then made a show called “An Idiot Abroad” which is basically Karl travelling the world, every aspect of his trips are organised by Ricky and Steve and are made to be as miserable as possible for Karl, also well worth a reaction 😉
I feel like this is a LOT funnier when you've seen The Ricky Gervais Show/An Idiot Abroad. Honestly, if you guys were ever up for doing an episode-for-episode reaction video of The Ricky Gervais show, that'd be a hell of a lot of content and every episode is hilarious.
No matter how many times I’ve seen that video, I’m left in tears 🤣🤣🤣 seeing you both enjoying it, made me know there are a lot of ppl who love dry humour 🤣🤣🤣
You can go into many British pubs and workplaces and here similarly surreal conversations, but Karl is an effortless master of his trade. Glad you appreciate quintessentially British humour.
Great video as always guys! Totally agree with others here - You should do An Idiot Abroad if you liked this. Genius travel show, absolutely hilarious.
Hi guys, great reaction, Karl a gem, no acting, just being himself, typical Mancunian, down to earth, tells it how it is, from Manchester, reaction to idiot abroad, hilarious, much live , Phil from Manchester
I absolutely adore you guys you have a great sense of humour without getting triggered. Like others have said you'd live Karl pilkington moaning of life traveling around the world getting stitched up by Ricky its 10/10
You guys should watch An Idiot Abroad if you liked seeing Karl and Ricky together... it is mostly Karl going on his travels, where Ricky tells Karl what he is supposed to do and where he is going to visit. Can't wait to see your reaction to that... Love you guy xxx
Totally fantastic reaction you two. ❤ I have seen this sketch, which they do improvise, many times. I have never cried laughing so much than with u. It's like enjoying it with your friends. Thank q. So hope u sent it to your brother, Jess. 😂😂😂
Love this! 😂😂😂 Meet Karl Pilkington and Karl getting a prostate exam are both hilarious! Also, Ali G interviewing David & Victoria Beckham...must watch 😂

An Idiot Abroad is where Ricky sends Karl to different destinations around the world. It's hilarious the situations Ricky puts him in.
😂😂😂👍👍 Thank you so much. I love it. Always puts me in a good mood. There is plenty more comedy from these two as others have mentioned.✌
You’ve gotta watch “meet Karl pilkington” you’ll laugh from beginning to end…RUclips it.
Personally, if you're going to take these recommendations seriously, I strongly recommend starting with The Ricky Gervais Show.
We want to be able to go down the TV Show rabbit hole with these suggestions, and eventually we will. Currently doing 30-50min video reactions just isn't possible for us. We'd have to drop down to 2-3 uploads a week.

@@futurez12 We're being realistic about what to watch for reaction content. We know XFM is where it started. That's a weird thing to hate, man.
Oh mate... not acting? Seriously? Did you ever see the sitcom that he wrote and starred in called 'Sick of it'?
An Idiot Abroad, The Ricky Gervais Show and The Moaning of Life. Must watch.
Moaning of Life gets copyright blocked. An Idiot Abroad will be fine though.
Definitely, still watch all of them
We might not have good food but we got great idiots 😂🇬🇧❤️
Please watch an idiot abroad ! It’s so funny ! Ricky sends Carl around the world and sets Carls inventory for the trip , the things he makes him do will get you laughing from the get go . Enjoy !
Idiot Abroad is brilliant
Karl just being Karl.
An absolute legend without even trying.
Yeah,absolute rubbish.
Agree - total legend
This is Karl Pilkington, he is not an actor. This is just the way he is.
true !
As I've said before, he's either real, or the single greatest actor who's ever lived
Maybe it's not saying his persona is an act. Maybe it's because of the fact he has gone on to act in some programs so that's why he is also now able to be described as an actor. Although of course, I wouldn't say acting is his main thing or what he's mostly known for.
An actor? He's just playing himself.
He acted in Derek.
Karl was a producer at a radio station called XFM. Ricky got a show there and Karl was brought in as his producer, and from day 1 Ricky was fascinated by how his brain works.
I thought he was an electrician and he met Ricky and Stephen on set!

Why watch the same guy/group more than two times? That's boring. There are so many new artists to discover!
@@svenlima I'm not sure I would call karl pilkington an artist but I say that because he is funny as fuck and there is a ton of different content he's been in that more than worth a watch.

I love seeing people discover Karl. No person in this world has made me laugh more than him. Hes a treasure and he doesnt even know it.
Like everyone else in the comments has said…..”An Idiot Abroad” is a must for you to react to,you’ll both absolutely love it…comedy gold.
You have gotta check out the Ricky Gervais show with Karl and Stephen Merchant its so funny
This - If you are considering these suggestions, please start with The Ricky Gervais Show
100% to that. The whole series is pure gold.
Try extras with Ricky it’s brilliant
I've watched the Ricky Gervais show SO many times now, it's like I have it memorized. I sometimes put it on when I can't sleep. Still gets a laugh out of me.
Yep, as others have suggested, the Ricky Gervais animated podcasts are amazing. Especially Karl's diaries. Insanely funny.
Honestly, please watch the animated Ricky Gervais show you guys will absolutely love it.
Airy Chinese kid
The dribbling episode to see if it runs out,😂😂😂 still paralyses me!
Not the animated series, the sound effects are off putting. Just listen to the original podcasts or the xfm shows. They're all on here
Even though I’ve seen all of Ricky and Karl’s videos, I have never laughed so hard than when watching it with you guys. Thank you both, you’ve made my day. Best reaction channel EVER.

You've opened a real can of worms here.. You can keep going for years listening to these two and Steve Merchant..
he didn't "break" per say, as Karl isn't doing a chracter. This is just who he is and Ricky takes full advantage of it and we're the happier for it

History time- Ricky Gervais worked at a small radio station in London called XFM, because he took on more jobs at the station (and being quite lazy) he hired an assistant, that ended up being Stephen Merchant. XFM got taken over, the new bosses let them go, Ricky and Steve created “The Office” TV show to huge acclaim. XFM asked them to come back, they agreed but only on the condition that they didn’t have to do any real work like pressing the buttons and running their show, so XFM provided them with another XFM employee to do the work, someone from the production department - it was Karl Pilkington. Ricky and Steve would talk to Karl off air, realised he was hilarious so brought him on air as their 3rd man. After a few years they all left together to start their own podcasts, which were a success. HBO then gave them a TV show, where they took the podcasts and animated their real conversations as cartoons called “The Ricky Gervais Show”, which are well worth a reaction 😉 they then made a show called “An Idiot Abroad” which is basically Karl travelling the world, every aspect of his trips are organised by Ricky and Steve and are made to be as miserable as possible for Karl, also well worth a reaction 😉
At last! RUclipsrs that has 100% genuine enganging laughter, thank you guys!😊❤
