An Idiot Abroad



"TV Promo of the Day: First look sneak peek trailer for Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant’s An Idiot Abroad — a documentary series featuring beloved round-headed buffoon Karl Pilkington traveling around the world and hating every minute of it."

There is something purely genius about the interaction between these three that is always hysterically funny to me. If you haven't seen 'The Ricky Gervais' show on HBO or listen to the brilliant podcasts these three have created by just talking around a table then you have been missing out. Karl Pilkington is a one of a kind personality in the way that Harvey Peckar was. I promise you haven't met strange until you have met Karl.

That's hilarious! The show would be like going on vacation with most of my English relatives.

Although going around the world with Harvey Pekar would have been a real trip. Harvey would make Karl Pilkington look downright genial

I would have loved Karl and Harvey in a buddy comedy. Ricky Gervais sure found his muse with Karl. He is truely one of a kind.
