Karl has a HUGE following. He is famous for the shows "An Idiot Abroad" and "The Ricky Gervais Show". Idiot Abroad is a travel show and The Ricky Gervais Show is an animated show with Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington talking about the most random things. I have both shows on my page. HIGHLY recommended
The best thing about this was watching you lose your mind!! I don't think I would have been 5% as amused if it hadn't been for your reaction!! Well done. 👍 You translated Ricky Gervais for me!! 🤣
You are the person to watch something funny with. I’ve watched this many times, but you make it better. Thank you for starting my day with a belly laugh. 😂
FFS, I LOVE your reactions JJLA, your giggles are infectious, and you seem to be such a lovely person, You should watch 'Meet Carl Pilkington', Carl is an Enigma.
When you did your live JJ I was one of the people to say watch Ricky and Karl, and seeing you laugh with them shows me you appreciate the British humour!!! You need to do more 😂😂 my stomach is aching with the laughs right now
Karl is a typical northern English person, down to earth, and Ricky is a typical southerner, thinks he's a 'man of the world'. This type of conversation could genuinely take place exactly like this. Hope your chuckle muscles have recovered.
I love watching US reactions to Ricky and Karl. It’s like you’ve never heard comedy before. This is one of the few occasions where you see Karl break from his miserable facade. You rarely see him laugh and smile in future projects.
Your reactions are so relatable! Laughing so much your face hurts, I feel you there 😂❤ these are quality guys, Steve Merchant is too. The three amigos haha :)
Karl is the best. He is unintentionally hilarious. The best thing I ever saw about Karl, was a comment on one of the "Idiot abroad" videos. Where someone posted "I don't get what's so great about Karl? They could have just sent anyone from Manchester".
Karl's reaction is so genuine because Ricky went from being a mate he did radio with to having his own film production crews. So Karl is literally thinking Ricky would never bring out all these people and all this equipment just to mess with him. I think he realizes around the 16 minute mark that Ricky is willing to spend thousands of pounds just for his own amusement.
The pure joy you exuded while watching these two brought a smile to my dial... 😂✌🏼 You should check out their animated show with Stephen Merchant... Gold!
They used to do a podcast together, a very long time ago, back in the days when podcasts started. The actual original recordings have been turned into animated videos (think they are all on TH-cam now?). Looks like JJLA will really enjoy those in his spare time - very funny, even funnier than this!
You should watch AN IDIOT ABROAD starring Karl, who was sent to various locations throughout the world by Ricky to do a myriad unpleasant things; Karl was funny just by being himself …. The skit just now was nothing to do with timing on Karl’s part, he was just being Karl. The funniest thing on this was YOU 😂
This is both the pilot and last episode unfortunately. There was plans for more, as Ricky mentioned it as a new project on his site, but they did very little together after this other than publicity stuff for An Idiot Abroad 3, which was out at the same time
This was an extra on one of Ricky's DVDs. It was completely improvised, which is why Ricky keeps bursting out in laughter at some of Karl's responses. Sadly, they never did an episode 2.
this is similar to most lads at the pub if there having a laugh, especially if there’s someone easily wound up 😂. Yanks are prime for taking up the garden path. 21:53
JJ you seemed interested in Karl mentioning how much milk is used dependent upon the type of tea being used etc.? FYI: When making several cups of tea for people _(at home or at work for example),_ 'the tea maker' will usually ask a few questions and then use those answers to provide a 'decent' cup of tea to the 'tea drinkers', thus; "How do you want or how do you take your tea?" The answers are often similar to these: "No sugar / one sugar / two sugars / do you have any sweetners?" - "Black, no milk / milk, please" _(followed by)_ "How much milk?" _(answered by)_ "A dash of milk / 'builder's tea' / milky, please" OR a combination of such phrases. Other questions may include "what tea do you have?" _(E.G. PG Tips, Typhoo, Yorkshire, Twinings etc.),_ and British people JUST know how to make it... We get trained from young how to make a CUPPA, use a teapot and a kettle... LOL 😂👍
Karl Pilkington is great. I think his appeal cones from the way he touches on some genuinely interesting and grand ideas but his vocabulary and accent (like many of us in the North of England) betrays him and makes him seem silly, especially when Ricky (and Steven Merchant) pokes fun at him for comedic effect.
He takes so much shit... & he just powers through, doesn't get derailed & finishes his point, undeterred. Those XFM shows were gold, I only wish they had been filmed so we could witness their expressions.
@craigbailey2256 I remember when my mate put the podcasts on for me in our works van (he connected an iPod to the stereo, that's how long ago it was 😆) and i was hooked. You're right, I wish it was filmed too for their reactions, but Karl's reactions to them tickles me too 😂
If nothing else, reacting to the Ricky Gervais Show/Idiot Abroad/anything Karl related will get your subscriber count up and well passed 100k. He’s a national treasure, and very popular. If Britain had a Mount Rushmore, Karl Pilkington would definitely be in there
you got to do more karl hes so funny and he not trying his interviews are funny too also you should check out miriam margolyes on the grayham norton show you will love her she was profeser sprout on harry potters
I'm obviously not the first to say this, but you're gonna love 'The Ricky Gervais Show'. You'd have to give a little more time to 'An Idiot Abroad', I'd like to see your reactions to both though. ✌️💙🏴🇬🇧
Karl thinks this is a real language lesson if you haven't already figured it out. This is all just a setup for Karl's reaction. Karl is Ricky's unwitting, & often witless stooge :) What's great though is Ricky's genuine affection for Karl, if you followed the radio show you'd know that he calls him near enough every day (then, at least) & often takes him out & has him around his house, & also made him a wealthy man with their numerous projects.
Why is this SO MANY reactors first exposure to Karl? The full extent of his hilarity in this particular video is only really apparent when one is relatively familiar with the way he is. Yet, for some reason, this seems to be suggested to reactors as a first exposure to him way more than anything else he's in.
One thing Carl said is perfectly true - to various Asian/African people we DO smell because we have dairy in our diet. My best mate throughout our teenage years, was Chinese. I remember one time going to his place where his Grandpa also lived. As I walked in Grandpa walked out. Later, I asked my friend, why he did that and was told it was because Grandpa couldn't stand the smell of Europeans. At the age of 15, when I was just learning about being feminine, I was shattered!! I smelt bad? I bathed at least twice a day (and still do) wore deodorant and expensive French perfume (I worked in a perfumery during school holidays)...and yet Grandpa found my smell offensive? I was shattered!! However, years later, when living in China, I began to understand how sour & nasty dairy could be to people who hadn't milk or cheese in their diet. Things have changed now - especially since ice-cream became a favourite - but out in the countryside there are people who still think we are stinky!!
i still watch this from time to time if im feeling sad haha its quality ....you shit? ...you stink! he is a legend Ricky bullied him a lot but he took it well
The animated Ricky Gervais show and An Idiot Abroad are essential reaction channel viewing
Definitely and hopefully a full episode of an idiot abroad
Karl's Diary 👌🏻
@@thomasharper1927 I love Ricky's own hysterical reactions to Karl's Diary: "Why does he write this down?!"
Monkey News?
Idiot abroad far better but I love both so yeah lol
Karl is not acting! He is just Karl.
it's hard to believe if you are seeing karl for the first time tho.

Second season of 'An Idiot Abroad' is best television ever made!
turns out, little monkey fella
don't forget xfm where it all started
I have seen this so many times I start laughing before it starts!
The best thing about this was watching you lose your mind!! I don't think I would have been 5% as amused if it hadn't been for your reaction!! Well done. 👍 You translated Ricky Gervais for me!! 🤣
You also need some Bob Mortimer in your life. Especially his appearances on Would I Lie To You (WILTY). Another national treasure.
😂😂 I've never seen this, it's hilarious and so is your reaction 😂😂
OMG! I have face ache. Laughed so hard at this even though I have seen it some years ago. Karl & Ricky are ace together. Ugly crying! 😂😂😂😭😭😭😂😂😂
Karl is NOT acting. This is Karls true personality. He does'nt see things in the same way the rest of us would.👍🇬🇧
Speak for yourself...i'm constantly gettin on peoples wick by saying stuff like 'what's the point of this or what's the point of that'.
Karl is a gem 💎
It’s been years since I saw this and it’s still hilarious! I love how much you loved it 😂
Your reaction had me laughing more than the video did 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You are the person to watch something funny with. I’ve watched this many times, but you make it better. Thank you for starting my day with a belly laugh. 😂

Carl Pilkington will be seen by history as one of mankind's greatest sage's.
Karl Pilkinton..... a comedy legend without ever trying or knowing it 😊 🇬🇧
I know we sell ourselves abroad as James Bond or Hugh Grant types but most of us Englishmen are like Karl.
😂
Go back to the start of the Ricky Gervais Show and work forward from there, it’s absolutely gold
I’ve watched this so many times but your video popped up I had to watch it again 😂
I'm so here for your Karl Pilkington arc
Karl is a typical northern English person, down to earth, and Ricky is a typical southerner, thinks he's a 'man of the world'. This type of conversation could genuinely take place exactly like this. Hope your chuckle muscles have recovered.
I love watching US reactions to Ricky and Karl. It’s like you’ve never heard comedy before. This is one of the few occasions where you see Karl break from his miserable facade. You rarely see him laugh and smile in future projects.
Haha. I've never seen you laugh so much.
That was great JJ, never seen you laugh so much 😂
Karl and Ricky are so funny together 😂
Karl pilkington is a legend 🎉
Your reactions are so relatable! Laughing so much your face hurts, I feel you there 😂❤ these are quality guys, Steve Merchant is too. The three amigos haha :)
And thank you, this video has been the laugh I needed today. I've watched the original video, but you're reactions just enhance the experience 😂😂
I love Ricky Gervais. The funniest man on earth….in my opinion. I’ve seen this video before and it never gets old. 😂😂😂
Your best reaction yet
😂 I was so worried you were going to pull a muscle JJ!! ❤
Karl is the best.
He is unintentionally hilarious.
The best thing I ever saw about Karl, was a comment on one of the "Idiot abroad" videos.
Where someone posted "I don't get what's so great about Karl? They could have just sent anyone from Manchester".
This man needs to be protected at all costs! He’s the definition of a national treasure…
So pleased you found this funny ... Good to see you enjoy with hysterical laughing .
Karl's reaction is so genuine because Ricky went from being a mate he did radio with to having his own film production crews.

Long time since I've seen anything this funny!!!! I'm crying lol
Glad your on the Karl Pilkington journey man you've got so many more laughs to come from all their shows 😂
The pure joy you exuded while watching these two brought a smile to my dial... 😂✌🏼
You should check out their animated show with Stephen Merchant... Gold!
Welcome to the wonderful world of Karl.
I love how much you loved this 😂
That was fun... I hope you have recovered 😂
JJLA IS THE ALGORITHM
WARNING
JJLA IS THE ALGORITHM
(The algorithm knows everything i've watched in the last few weeks)
You must react to the Ricky Gervais show and an Idiot Abroad.
Karl is not acting here. Hes a proper down to earth moaning git manc and we love him for ir. Loved youe reaction mate an i was laughing with you 😅😅😅😅😅
They used to do a podcast together, a very long time ago, back in the days when podcasts started. The actual original recordings have been turned into animated videos (think they are all on TH-cam now?). Looks like JJLA will really enjoy those in his spare time - very funny, even funnier than this!
No this is 100% real Karl. He is a true British legend
Karl is a great comedy creation. His greatest asset is coming across a real person.
I've seen this many times before and it still cracks me up in tears xD
Cracks……… !?
Just out right laughing at the reaction. Pure gold 😂
I can’t remember seeing you break as much as this at a reaction 😂
You have to react to some animated Ricky Gervais show episodes!! 🙏🙏
You should react to the Extras Bloopers. They're pretty funny.
I'm so happy you enjoy this humor as much as non-Americans do.
You should watch AN IDIOT ABROAD starring Karl, who was sent to various locations throughout the world by Ricky to do a myriad unpleasant things; Karl was funny just by being himself ….
The skit just now was nothing to do with timing on Karl’s part, he was just being Karl.
The funniest thing on this was YOU 😂

Karl is by far our most beloved village idiot
Hed actually be good tho lol
Love Karl Pilkington.
this is similar to most lads at the pub if there having a laugh, especially if there’s someone easily wound up 😂. Yanks are prime for taking up the garden path. 21:53
They're both speaking English and the text is also English so what nationality exactly can learn anything!😂😂😂

You need to listen to the podcasts. Honestly really feel good listening
XFM. Those were the days. Tom Cruise. Head of a fucking orange. Bees having heart attacks because it’s stressful in London. Eyes Steve..
Mr. K. Dilkington
@@findlaywalker3513”as a valued customer……….” 😂😂😂. I’ve got them all on an old iPod. I hope it lives forever 🤞🏻
Lest we forget Auntie Nora's split tennis ball.
More Karl!
You definitely need to watch An Idiot Abroad! It’s hilarious
Surprised you havent seen this before. Its a masterpiece.
you should react to the show where Ricky makes Karl get a real prostate exam
Karl Pilkington is great. I think his appeal cones from the way he touches on some genuinely interesting and grand ideas but his vocabulary and accent (like many of us in the North of England) betrays him and makes him seem silly, especially when Ricky (and Steven Merchant) pokes fun at him for comedic effect.
Dude you gotta watch an idiot abroad it will blow you way 😂😂😂😂👏👏
Ricky Gervais is easily the funniest pop star
I highly suggest watching The Ricky Gervais Show animated
Please do more karl pilkington stuff, it would make my day!
If your face hurts watching this you need to watch the Ricky Gervais show and and "An idiot abroad". Karl puts up with some shit from Ricky 😂
He takes so much shit... & he just powers through, doesn't get derailed & finishes his point, undeterred. Those XFM shows were gold, I only wish they had been filmed so we could witness their expressions.
@craigbailey2256 I remember when my mate put the podcasts on for me in our works van (he connected an iPod to the stereo, that's how long ago it was 😆) and i was hooked. You're right, I wish it was filmed too for their reactions, but Karl's reactions to them tickles me too 😂
Karl’s from where I’m from I have same accent! He’s a proper Northern bloke!! You need to check out Idiot Abroad….It’s hilarious!! 😂
You’ve gone down a rabbit hole
I'd love to see you react to The Ricky Gervais show and Idiot Abroad, you'd love them.
If nothing else, reacting to the Ricky Gervais Show/Idiot Abroad/anything Karl related will get your subscriber count up and well passed 100k. He’s a national treasure, and very popular. If Britain had a Mount Rushmore, Karl Pilkington would definitely be in there
We need more of Karl
Forgot how good this was 😂😂😂
All Hail the Karrrrrrl, baby!
Yes apparently we do smell of sour fromage! 😂
you got to do more karl hes so funny and he not trying his interviews are funny too also you should check out miriam margolyes on the grayham norton show you will love her she was profeser sprout on harry potters
I'm obviously not the first to say this, but you're gonna love 'The Ricky Gervais Show'. You'd have to give a little more time to 'An Idiot Abroad', I'd like to see your reactions to both though.

ironically the Chinese are lactose intolerant 😂
Carl piko he right sometimes check out annie lenox broken glass jonbmalko is in it😊
Please react to more of these 🙏

You gotta react to an idiot abroad. It's brilliant!
TH-cam subtitles can't be trusted at all
thanks for this comment. Skipping this one. When will he learn?
@@lukespooky it is still funny
@@gerardmcquade9102 it's infuriating. I can't
Your reaction is even funnier than the show 🤣👏👏
This is true! Lol!
Oh no not auto-generated subtitles, they’re always horrendous

Yes, they think we smell of milk, and we think they smell of fish.
He says he was a grandpa, he was probably about 30
Is this your first experience of Karl? as others have said, would love to experience some Bob Mortimer stories with you 👍
Omg please please I hope you notice the top comment here lol. Totally recommend’The RG show’ as a warm up to ‘An idiot abroad’!
Is that your first time experiencing Karl? If so, you really need to watch and react to An Idiot Abroad and The Ricky Gervais Show
This is truly a new level of human comprehension. Sort of.
i still watch this from time to time if im feeling sad haha its quality ....you shit? ...you stink! he is a legend Ricky bullied him a lot but he took it well
You really need to watch An Idiot Abroad if you haven't yet
I've never seen you laugh this much, really try out an idiot abroad 😂
Please do An Idiot Abroad!
