Yeah people are just impatient and have a specific moment in mind they want him to react to. A couple was reacting to south park and the fans convinced them to skip the first 3 seasons lol. They didnt understand anything or who any of the characters were. Its a bad way to consume media when you just skip the part that establishes the series. Makes no sense.
Glad people from across the pond are appreciating the unique ramblings of a Northern/Greater Manchester working class hero... Eventually you'll become one of us who falls asleep nightly to the old XFM radio shows. The only chance (if ever) we have of seeing Ricky, Karl and Steve working together again is to make sure everyone who wants it is heard!
Karl is often ALMOST right - he confused the death of Plato with the death of Aeschylus, who was allegedly killed by a bird dropping a tortoise on his head.
Horrible Histories did a sketch about Aeschylus and the eagle dropping a tortoise on his head. Even better was that my Latin Summer exam at school we got given a bit of text to translate, and it was the story about Aeschylus. Everybody in the class was confused af "Tortoise? Eagle? What the hell". Thanks Horrible Histories.
Yes, he got the story very confused. But quite aside from that, it's the Pilkington logic that is lamentable here. How does dying from a bizarre and unforeseeable accident possibly point to a lack of intelligence?
Wow, I sometimes forget just how old these conversations are: Karl was only 32 when this was recorded and he's pushing 50 now. Another great video by the way👍.
Going to the doctor is free here in Ireland! And most of if not all of Europe, saves a lot of lives and gives everyone peace of mind...which I think is a big point people ignore when they argue against free healthcare
I've always laughed hysterically at this show, it's one of my favourites. But your reaction is making me CRY laughing! I love your laugh and the fact you actually get it all! 👍🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀
lol i didnt know that at all. Gonna need a translation of all british slang from now on because its all big ben and wanka to my uncultured american ears.
I understand that you agree with Karl on the medical points in this episode because of the American health care system but Karl doesn't have that reason to not have it done. It's free in the UK and takes hardly any time at all so it's his own embarrassment/stubbornness that's stopping him. It's like he doesn't trust the fact they've studied at medical school for 5+ years or been a practicing doctor for X amount of years on top of that. I know he's had it done now but it took Ricky and Steve intervening so much for him to have it done when he could of just sucked it up and gone himself, but ya gotta love him
This is why Karl is so great. Yes he's a bit of an idiot, and has really odd logic, but he's relatable, and a decent guy who doesn't mind speaking his mind.
I agree and when you think about the fact he was a radio production manager at 31 and he has had many TV shows since and he’s being working without Gervais for a long time now. Karl is a very successful person.
You are my favourite English humour loving person . When you 😆 it makes us laugh just as mush as Karl does.keeep digging . There is loads more just like this.
Imma be legit here. The naked woman story is relatable with me, I live on the second floor of my building and from my bedroom I can see like, 3-4 buildings including bathrooms and bedrooms. So, let's say, 2 houses per apartment, bathroom and bedroom windows, on some the kitchen too. I can see into like, 30 windows from my bedroom. Yes, I have accidentally seen things BUT NEVER.... Never have I taken that like Karl did, as a challenge, flashed my arse at them. I notice, they either cover up or freeze in place, but my reaction is turn away and close the blinds. WHY WOULD YOU SHOW YOUR ASS KARL?! I.... Just never change. I used to watch this show late at night in the UK on E4 and I still love it. I'm a new sub btw, so I've not seen most of this guys stuff but his reactions are seriously good to watch. Like, he genuinely finds joy in this series alone. And I think that's a good damn thing for a reactor. Hoping you do season 2 as well, it just keeps getting better. TL;DR Karl is a maniac and I'm a new sub that's happy and going to be binging this channel :)
As amazing as it is to discover Karl. Their is so much joy in someone else sharing that love too. If you guys need more of Karl. Most this material was touched on during their old Radio show (where they discover Karl) Just search Ricky Gervais Show on XfM. And just wait for the laughs.
@@AfterWorkReactions anytime man, more for you than the channel. It's mainly audio. Worth it though, he made a quiz show called rockbusters. It was a hilarious s**t show every time.
There are hundereds of hours of audio of Ricky, Steve and Karl, from the original podcasts and radio shows. Really good to listen to when driving or travelling...
Love this channel never watched reactions befor only got into it a few months ago n this is top lol love your appreciation of Karl pilkington and you've watched many top stand ups of British comedy and of course our legend Lee Evans many movies like mouse hunt and something about mary
22:46 Wait, so, in the US, you pay taxes, AND medical insurance, AND still have to pay for treatment? You guys really are getting bent over and not just for a quick finger. Taught to take pride in such a system too. 🤔
It’s the whole not my problem until it happens to me mentality that drives America. It’s a part of every single one of their problems except for abortion
@@stevious7278 I've been saying this for years and never heard another echo the sentiment. Yes, the Americans who are so against the concept seem ti be the older generation. A generation brought up in the heat of cold war paranoia, taught to hate and fear "communism" as the ultimate, anti-American evil. So they see anything remotely socialist in philosophy as part of some kind of sinister and insidious ideology, (whilst not noticing they live in a country with one of the most unionised workforces in the world, but never mind). They really need to shake off this mentality. Universal healthcare is an altruistic policy that to me, is one of the pillars of civilization. Frankly I don't consider a country that doesn't have it to be particularly civilized. Americans who oppose it think of it as "paying for other people to be sick" without thinking of the vice versa, without a modicum of empathy for those in need who by ill fate can't afford the care they need, without thinking they might ever need it themselves. I can't tell if it's selfishness, shortsightedness, or just hopeless optimism. Anyway, I'm glad to say, from the Americans I know, the younger generation seem to have thought it through rather more. I would encourage all Americans though, to look into the costs of healthcare in your country vs others and see how much the industry is screwing you. Even compared to private healthcare in other countries, you are being bled white by an industry raking in billions by the day from your suffering. And they've tricked you into being proud of it. Doesn't look very dignified from over here. You at least must care about that.
Brilliant! Really enjoying these reactions, and yeah the excerpts from Karl's Diary are the best bits of the show for me, they are genius! Thank you for uploading so many reactions, been watching them all! Keep up the great videos
Thanks for the entertainment. I've just signed up on your patreon page to show my appreciation. I can't wait to watch all your Idiot abroad reactions 😂 the one you did today had me in stitches.
1 dislike on all of the last 3 videos... Someone has a silent hater, who seems to have notifications on... how pathetic ! 😂 Another great reaction man ! Loving the uploads
Brooo your uploads recently :O I’ve just watched the whole reaction to idiot abroad and now this too! Keep up the grind bro! Love it , I could watch these all day
2:45 They did explain the forward facing eyes in the full podcast. They just cut out that extra dialogue for the cartoon. Season 1 Episode 7 if you’re interested.
Scrolling through these, it’s like I’m watching them with a friend man.... 👍 also massive props on the goku vegeta shirt. 💪 Kioken Goku vs Prince Vegeta. Sayian Saga, post Napa. 👌
There is footage of Karl actually getting a prostrate exam live on TV (Ricky surprises him with it). You might want to check that one out :) Imagine Karls reaction.
The egg dropping fact relates to birds dropping things on rocks to break them open for food. I do not know about that area of birds and food but there is a record of a bald man being killed by a tortoise that a bird dropped thinking his head was a rock. I guess that was something similar that happened to karls story. A stitch in time saves nine, nine was used as it is the closest in rhyme to time. The phrase is meant to mean fix something to save doing work o.n a bigger problem later like a hole in your clothes, 1 stitch to fix it or else the hole gets bigger needing more stitches in the future. You get the rough idea.
I don’t know who is telling you to skip episodes but ignore them there’s gold in every episode
Yeah people are just impatient and have a specific moment in mind they want him to react to. A couple was reacting to south park and the fans convinced them to skip the first 3 seasons lol.

Agreed, do NOT skip any. Definitely watch them in order.
Annoys me when people do that. Aswell as the ones who constantly say just wait til you get to ep such n such
Ever heard of pick n mix?
Is that how you watch tv shows donald? Oh i think ill start on ep 6 then on to s2 ep 3 then on to the finale before finishing up on s1 ep1🤔
"that's why a minimalist lifestyle is so appealing"

Karl is often ALMOST right - he confused the death of Plato with the death of Aeschylus, who was allegedly killed by a bird dropping a tortoise on his head.
Well googled! Err...I mean "remembered"
I think he learns like a sentence worth of info, but adds so many made up details that it comes out as nonsense xD
Stupid deaths, stupid deaths, they're funny cause they're true!

The only American iv seen reacting to Karl, who really appreciates how funny he is
I'm hyped for the hostage negotiation episode
That was a good episode, but I don’t think I’ve laughed harder at anything than the Mongolian throat singing & the wing walking episodes.

Yo man just wanna say i enjoy your videos. You're also a great guy and your laugh makes the funny moment even better.
Your laugh always gets me going man, keep up the great vids!
