This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
... View MoreA Disappointing Continuation
... View MoreI really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
... View Morean ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
... View MoreI cannot praise this show enough, the simplicity of cartoons sitting around a table discussing the weird & wonderful thinking's of Karl Pilkingon, the hero. Every episode is hilarious, & at point you may find yourself agreeing with KP, oddly, but don't admit that to your friends. Everyone has that one show that they have to watch when it's on, regardless of what you're doing, this is my one show; I have to make sure I see it. You'll continue to laugh when you discuss it with your pals in the pub, the banter between the 3 is classic; Stephen Merchant listens intensely & comes out with these brilliant one liners & Ricky Gervais plows in with unrelenting mockery. It is brilliant, comedy genius. Don't knock it until you've tried it.
... View MoreAs an avid Ricky Gervais fan, i was highly disappointing by this show. the graphics do it no justice. it somehow reminds me of watching archer and that was also another terrible experience for me. personally i do not know how this show was not cut after the first episode. Also, the way they just took old radio pod casts and made a new show out of it is just appalling.Karl Pilkington makes the show somewhat enjoyable but that's where it stops. I would advise anyone who is a fan of RG's work to avoid this show.Jane.
... View MoreI absolutely love this show, and any other one that has to do with Karl Pilkington such as: "An idiot abroad". I can't get enough of this guy. I must have watched all three seasons about 50 times by now and its still just as funny as when I first watched it. I thank my old roommate everyday for letting me use HBO GO on my xbox 360. I had first saw An idiot abroad on TV, and Karl Pilkington would crack me up so much, but when I found the Ricky Gervais show I was blown away. They could easily do 20 seasons of this show. In fact, Ricky Gervais, I am begging you to bring out more episodes of this show. Listening to podcasts isn't enough. The animation completes the whole thing. 10 out of 10 from me.
... View MoreThere's something so irresistible about Karl Pilkington. I discovered him through the books first. Then I enjoyed watching An Idiot Abroad. I'm not a fan of Ricky Gervais usually, but that doesn't matter here. Karl takes all the teasing in his stride and can give as good as he gets. He's not a victim, although it may come across that way to some viewers. Ricky & Steve both love him and if Karl wasn't happy, he wouldn't keep on working with them. The animation is brilliant. The title sequence alone pulls you in. I don't believe there's that much acting involved. Karl is a unique person and his outlook is refreshing. His Diary is always a highlight. One of the funniest series ever, whether or not you heard the original podcasts.
