      Taylor Lynn It's funny I didn't like Karl in those other shows, like Idiot abroad etc but in this he was hands down brilliant. Best actor, even better than Ricky, and incredibly well written (thanks to Ricky). Such a huge shame he didn't do season 2.. I couldn't even finish season 2. Apparently he was scared of acting.. even though he is so good at it! I think maybe he did't like the wig.

    Among his reasons for quitting the show is that he doesn't consider himself to be an "actor."
    He's a brilliant actor. Yes, he's just playing himself, pretty much. But how many people can do that in such a completely natural, un-affected way? Watch any sitcom when they have some sports star or some other famous non-actor appear as himself. They "act" like a chunk of two-by-four. Karl seems completely unaware that there is a camera in the room.

    • @caldw615
      @caldw615 9 років тому +9

      Mickey Bitsko I think Karl is just used to a studio environment as he's worked as a producer for multiple shows over the years as well as had camera's in his face a lot for things like An Idiot Abroad. If you watch him on the old podcasts or Rickey Gervais Show he does a lot of improv scenarios with Ricky and Steve and takes them seriously enough as if they were actually happening which is very natural and very funny V:

    • @frlipa
      @frlipa 8 років тому +8

      +Cal DW I don't think any producer could appear that relaxed and natural. On top of that he's also very interesting, he doesn't bore you in the slightest. This is all very hard to pull off. Sportsmen are also used to cameras in their face. No matter how you put it he is very talented.

    • @caldw615
      @caldw615 8 років тому +10

      Iv Ko Again I don't think this is down to Karl's knowledge that he's trying to act, he just sort of does it. He can over complicate scenarios when he gets into them but I don't think he's aware he's doing it. He's very imaginative in some respects and oblivious in others which is why he can sometimes come up with complex details to a scenario Ricky or Steve never thought of but he has a habit of taking scenarios too literally at the same time.
      Ricky and Steve for example have tried telling him famous proverbs like "Peoples in glass houses shouldn't throw stones" and in Karl's head he is thinking of all the negative drawbacks there would be to actually living in a glass house but he doesn't understand how it relates to the real world as a metaphor. In one aspects he's very creative and in another he's just oblivious. This isn't a bad thing mind, he's a very interesting individual and very creative, but I don't think he's learned or trained to be that way like many actors have actually done with full understanding, he just sort of does what he does naturally because that's how his mind works.

      Iv Ko Musicians still need to learn instruments and artists still need to learn how to draw. There's a certain level of learning involved when it comes to certain kinds of work and forms of expression. Karl's naturally good at getting into character but he still would have had to learn how to do what he does while considering where the camera will be, sound production and so on though chances are he learned a lot of that back when he was a producer.

    Season 2 was not as good w/o Karl/Dougie. I Just read an article why Karl didn't do Season 2. Although he did a little - he said he hated it so much and really hated that wig. Here is what else he said: ‘People go, “Oh, you’re quite good in it”. I think I got away with it - it wasn’t acting!
    ‘I can put myself in a situation dead easy and get wound up by it, but for me, if you’d said, “Right, that’s brilliant Karl, [now] do it in Irish” - that to me is a proper actor!
    ‘If you can’t do that stuff, then you’re not really acting, you’re just remembering s**t.’

    The part with Dougie and the clingy lady with the mothers ring, one of the best bits and Karl REALLY bit into the scene and character, you could tell.

    This week, I finish up after 5 years as a handyman (a community employment scheme) in a similar position to Dougies, looking after the elderly residents in a small 30 bungalow estate run by Saint Vincent de Paul charity ....
    I'm 65y.o. myself so the work was getting too much for me...( e.g. cleaning gutters, cutting grass & even clambering through attics when necessary )
    During those 5 years I made friends with them all and also saw some pass away... and the families who never visited came & rifled through the house of their deceased mother or father just like the woman with the ring. They'd leave all the other stuff, furniture, personal effects etc...basically take anything of value... 😞
    It was heartbreaking.... I also had to clear out the houses and re-paint etc. in preperation for the next resident. I would carefully sift through papers etc. and oftentimes rescue photos and letters from the bin. We would try find a family member to post them to...
    As I watch Derek I find myself thinking of those who passed and wonder about my own future, I live alone in a rural setting and have no children...
