The Moaning of Life

This show is even better than Karl's last one. The insights are wonderful to watch as they unfold - evolve - grow. I loved his last series (An Idiot Abroad), with all the comedy. Karl has grown out of his distaste of all things foreign, not quite embraced those cultural differences, yet shows his courage to not only seek to understand the culture, explore the differences - more than that, through his experience - he attempts to apply his brand of practical culture in order to better understand those cultures around him. We all do it - but in his not so eloquent style, he helps us all work our way through it as he shows us how it could be done.

What this series does is take it to the next level, to give it that philosophical advantage, without missing the whole point - life and all the things we do are weird, wonderful, and most of all (most of the time) - funny. Great job and I expect it will continue with great success. Kudos.

Only discovered Karl this year in lockdown. Where has he been all my life? He's hilarious so down to earth. He's right cheered me up in lockdown

To all the people familiar with Karl, from his dealings with a certain Mr Gervais & Mr Merchant, you probably wont need much of an intro on what to expect from Karl. To all the non believers or Karl virgins, it is really quite difficult to explain just how good the show is. It is basically just a normal guy being put into strange situations & putting his own thoughts out there, but Karl being Karl, it is these thoughts which make the show. The show is 3 episodes in so far & it's been superb, what i like about this series quite a lot, is that we are finally seeing a part of Karl hidden previously. Now he is the master of his own destiny so to speak in this one, he seems to be able to enjoy & appreciate the experiences & it really shows through on screen. Two examples of this, the dancing clown part & when he found 2 pizzas in the bin.

It really is a great show which as plenty of laughs. Well worth anyones time.

I was a big fan of the Idiot Abroad series and was super thrilled to see that Karl is back. This time he is fumbling his way around the world learning about different cultural rites of passage like marriage. I enjoy how Karl views the world. He is unabashedly himself and is naturally hilarious. He questions why we do things like have a big marriage ceremony - is it really necessary? What is the point of pomp and circumstance for merely a moment in time? Karl is a philosopher of this generation. No doubt about it. I'm a huge fan and appreciate him in all his cranky glory. Ricky Gervais was a genius in discovering Karl and introducing him to the world. He truly is unique in today's very artificial culture of celebrity fandom. Karl cuts through the bs and says what a lot of us are thinking.

One of the best shows I've seen. Karl is interesting, insightful, funny and witty. He is the kind of guy I would like to have a beer with and shoot the Sh#t. Keep up the good work. Not sure what else can be said about the show, other than I like it and now I can't post this until I come up with ten lines minimum that I must fill with meaningless words. Anyhow I like the show and can't really say too much more. My hand is getting tired of typing because I have arthritis in one hand from too much use over the years. I did buy one of Karl's books, this was entitled "To Slap a Jelly Fish", Karl put to pen his many very funny thoughts. The book was mainly about his childhood and the places he visited.
