An Idiot Abroad

Post by Dr.Cookie Master »

In case you don't know this eye-watering hilarious series, its about a low witted man called Karl Pilkington who goes round the world and see the wonders of the world, while the likes of Ricky Gervais (director of "The invention of lying) and Stephen Merchant (voice of Wheatley in Portal/Portal 2) make him do outrageous things along the way (like bungee jumping off giant steam towers and have men kidnap him in the middle of the desert, or even paint his caravan with cow dung)

I highly recommend this series for those in need of a right laugh.

I really like these, they are replaying the first season here in New Zealand but I missed the last two. THEY START AT 11 PM! Is there a second one out? Damn I have to watch the first one first.

So... why did Karl agree to be the titular idiot? Won't he get kinda mad when the show's finished and everyone's calling him an idiot?

But what if I start liking the taste of the frogs? And when I get back to England I can't eat any of them.


Also, the moderately Okay wall of china.

Karl is fascinating. But I always pity him whenever he's sent out to the more ridiculous tasks. :XD:
