I'm a mental fan of gervais and merchant (and karl) but i have to say that life's too short was god awful

So was the second An Idiot Abroad in my view. Just have them do more podcasts please!

I hated the first, loved the second... it was much more natural karl. Reminded me of xfm karl before he started egging it.

I just F'n hate the stupid calling Karl up bullshit. I want them to fucking BE there with him doing these things too or encouraging Karl in person. I don't want to watch someone on the phone with someone else it's retarded. Especially since what I want more than anything is for Karl to stop putting up with their "orders" and say "Fuck you I ain't doing it." He tried and FAILED to do that, and I'm sick of watching it.


Fair enough, but i have to say they don't come across well in the series, i think they may have made themselves look worse than they are. They're actually really good mates and a lot of what we see on TV now is kind of over-acting. Karl loves spending time with them, they're pretty much his only friends and if they didn't force him to maintain the frindship, he wouldn't ever see them cos he's such a miserable, set-in-his-ways, old-before-his-time fart. I don't think he's really being pressured or anything; they're acting more nasty than they are and he's acting more annoyed than he is.

I think he does get a bit of that in the 2nd series anyway though because he flat refuses to do the big challenge (won't spoil it) or at least lies. But i preferred it because we got to see him having to interact with other people that always failed to meet his requirements in any given errand and there was no way out of it - like the desert island one - so he had to just be his natural annoyed self with those people.

Man i could talk for england, and you might not have even meant that at all so i'll stop there. Oh but i agree i think it's utter shit having them just call up like fatcats. It just seems a bit weird. Make an itinerary at the start and let him work it out, or go with him. What did they do instead? Life's too fucking short?

@EMPIRE - Were you a fan of extras and the office though? I feel like this is the first of their comedies that has the appeal to people who'd like comedies i can't hack such as "my family"

So in this show, there's celebrity cameo appearances, allowing for Ricky to say things that make him appear like a bit of a dick?
Whaddaya mean he's run out of ideas?!?


I think that's how he enjoys writing the characters he plays and ultimately when he plays himself, like he's an egoistic bastard who likes the sound of his own voice. He even acts like that in interviews and a lot of people would be forgiven for thinking he really is an arrogant asshole. But when you really get him talking on a subject, you realise that he's a very philosophical, kind man And that's why I still love slightly shite clips like this, he's just pushing this false persona and seeing how long it takes people to bite!

It was a dupe, you can find it here now:

Why kill you this? It funny.

Edit: It's more than funny, it's fucking hilarious! Seriously, Ricky Gervais couldn't have done it better. I can hear Andy Millman himself delivering those lines.

Thanks kind sir
