See i'm torn, I do find his standup stuff quite funny at times
but he's such a vile person, that whole "An Idiot Abroad" thing is just an excuse for him to bully someone else and call it entertainment, and while the odd clip i've seen looks amusing, it's still a smug vehicle for him being a cunt.

I watch that show, Karl's really very funny.
But Gervais and Merchant really are very unpleasant people judging by the way they talk to him.

I reckon off-TV Karl is just one of the lads, most social groups have someone who gets it ripped a bit more than the others...
... and if you listen to his podcasts, he re-uses 'jokes'*, so he must have understood that they were funny even though he ment them seriously at the time, so is rolling with it.

* For lack of a better word, I mean, normally funny little sayings that are amusing.
