Re: An Idiot Abroad
It's from the creators of "The Office"
It's one of those rare shows where I look forward to every episode, and even love seeing a repeat one.

Re: An Idiot Abroad
There are clips online on the website.
The description used for Karl is "...a round headed chimp like moron" but he's not really that at all. Two guys, as a practical joke, send thier friend Karl to see the wonders of the world while being filmed, like a travel documentary, they mess with Karl, they set him up to experience different cultures, but actually are setting him up with stuff they know he will just hate just to make a very funny show.
Karl, not a moron, but a guy with such a unique perspesctive, oh...the things he says.

Re: An Idiot Abroad
good show. I've only watched the Jordan and India ones so far, need to add it to the DVR.
Love the end of the India episode - peaceful ride down the Ganges alongside the Taj Mahal, setting sun and bodies being cremated.

Re: An Idiot Abroad
I'm thrilled to hear from someone else who is following the show.
Oh yeah, they ran 3 episodes last night, the Mexico one, India, and Cairo. I didn't get to watch much of the Cairo one.
Mexico was hilarious.
I know they have a website with clips, haven't checked it out much yet.

Re: An Idiot Abroad
Haven't seen this yet. Did you say Science channel? Did you mean Scifi? We don't have a "science" channel. Some refer to discovery as the science channel but I know you normally refer to discovery as discovery.
I can goggle the show but figured I'd be lazy and just ask.lol

OMG You answered faster than I could have goggled that. lol
We don't have the science channel. That could explain why the show has not been promoted here.

Re: An Idiot Abroad
India episode is the best..."room with en suite shed" priceless....if you go on youtube you may find some stuff on there with Ricky Gervis and Karl Pilkington. Do a search...the Monkey news is a giggle. Also if you search for The Ricky Gervis Show you get an animated version.
