Karl Pilkington's tankard story - HBO Ricky Gervais Show

[TheEddiejones15]

Cus your the only mug in this story!

[Mohrkai]

Freak accidents do happen and whether curses exist or not, nobody knows for certain. Indigenous peoples believe it but anyway. A woman who missed her flight on Air France 447, which soon crashed afterward - within that same week she returned home and was driving her car and crashed. She died.

I'm a believer in destiny as I understand and accept the path that life chooses for me.

I don't believe in Fate but it's possible, I'm just not dead yet to get an understanding.

'I believe in the laws of the universe' I don't think any human knows the laws of the universe or should ever know.

[SScomedian]

I love Ricky he is so funny and a great artist but i've watched alot of this show and ricky can be a dick. "I believe in logic and the laws of the universe. " Fuck off Karl is telling a story clearly its not real but who cares. The story was interesting and he sometimes doesn't make fun of Karl but just flat out insults him. Dick Of A Friend

0:54 stephen laughing always gets me

[dangerzone24]

[marteltristan]

Cuz 'e picked it oop.

[hiPlasma]

Moug.

[chinahands100]

makes me laugh how this show is for gervais to bang on how clever he is..

or not

[m3d1cation330]

Volume sucks

[QuackdaRipper]

...terus

[Bearsca]

Ah, I love the laws of the U.

[MrEmmacath224]

Should be called the Karl Pilkington show

[bb1crew]

Ricky Gervais just isn't funny in the Ricky Gervais show (or extras... or the simpsons...). These days without Karl, he'd be pretty uselss.

[MrDanielWalls]

@bb1crew extras is fantastic! what are you saying!

[deloford]

@bb1crew lol, good one.

[Radocto]

@bb1crew Not True, He's Awesome In Extras And All The Ova Shows He Does

[SharksKid]

@bb1crew

You're either an idiot or a troll. And no, you're not allowed to have a subjective opinion. Ricky is objectively a brilliant, funny man.

[hurstification]

@NovusOrdo2012 Haha yes, I realise this.... The Ricky Gervais Show is not scripted. Ricky has said this on *many* occasions. It took them approx three months to write each 30 min episode of The Office.... when would they have the time??? (taking into account all the other projects they do alone?!) They used to put out hours every week in the old XFM days (which was broadly similar) Stop calling people morons as it's clear your about as clueless as the perfectly round headed twonk himself........

[lcjj7]

Maybe the mug had some sort of crazy virus on it. Sometimes I support Carl (Karl? Carl?)

[shockraid1]

@lcjj7 If I had to guess? If the tankard had any lead on it, could be lead poisoning. Or possibly bullshit poisoning.

[Cryer24597]

@NovusOrdo2012 It was originally a podcast that came out in 2001 and Ricky Gervais has said many times it isn't scripted......though he could always just be lying.

[Cryer24597]

"Cause your the only mug in this story!".... "High five"

[Grim220981]

@Cryer24597 You're

[Grim220981]

@Cryer24597 You're

[Cryer24597]

@Grim220981 Excuse me, but you're missing a full stop.

[hurstification]

@NovusOrdo2012 it really isn't.......

[JordanRobsonOfficial]

@NovusOrdo2012 Is it? I know it was originally a PodCast.

[Marcello777]

@NovusOrdo2012 So? All the more reason to be tired of the repetitiveness.

[Marcello777]

Ricky likes to toot his own horn showing how much smarter he is than Karl. It get's kinda old.

[TheSoundtracksMan]

I touched the tankard...

I died

[TheChrisRob]

..iverse

[Scarecrowman27]

I love when that dude says "Sure" after Karl tells him how the first person dies lololol

[Izaak247]

Not many people believe in logic...

[weewee582]

the cursed tankerd oooooooo

[u2good2b4gotn]

1:35 Karl looks into the camera and spazzes out for a couple seconds...ha ha.

[Bagrah10]

@ServeTheBeaver - The world is whole again...

[robjames11jimbo]

karl is a hidden genius

[SHOCKstarMIKE]

i don't think its a tankered that hes talkin about i think its a stien and a stien is a big mug

[12igon6]

I just realized this, they are dicks to Karl

[JH1311]

Steve: "can we call it a tankard please...."

Ricky: " cause your the only mug in this story"

Steve "high five"

haha

[HuginnG]

is this show only about two smartasses bashing poor ol' Karl Pilkington?

[tadjcmartin]

@HuginnG Yes

[medicaldoctor369]

@HuginnG If you know about Karl Pilkington, then you sure as hell know all about Steve and Ricky. Stop trolling.

[JohnnyGoesWest]

Ricky Gervais is really arrogant about his atheism

[d245470k]

@JohnnyGoesWest I know, it's such a shame, especially when you consider how subdued and humble all the religious folks are when they're out knocking on peoples door, picketing funerals & abortion clinics, and standing on soapboxes preaching with megaphones.

[nick260682]

@JohnnyGoesWest

Honesty isn't the same as arrogance. He just says it how it is. Organised religion is fucking stupid and people are mental for believing it. That's not arrogance, it's just telling it how it is.

[b0nd33]

This clip is a great example of steve merchants comedy genius

[hillarychapman1]

the laughing is annoying

[redwing104]

@hillarychapman1 well they cant change the way they laugh

[TomG1013]

what!! Logic and the laws of the uni....uni-what? Unicorn??

[glossop08]

@TomG1013 its unicycle

[fatkat444]

@glossop08 Relistened: it's unisex bathrooms.

[DJOgmios]

Hmmm what's the connection 'ere?

[steveryans2]

haha "tiny tankard in a pub, must be a real grind" god merchant is awesome

[ghostwhiskey]

"look theres been alot of weird stuff goin on here"

[Listenkids]

Barney Rubble.

[EllenRebecca3]

lol God I love Stephen Merchant! :-D

[SvenTviking]

I have to ask. How did Karl Pilkington do a producers job? He lives in some daliesque surreal world!

[fatboyzoid]

lol science doesn't even fully understand the laws of the universe yet!

[MrChimpanzeeThat]

For people thinking Karl is made up go back and listen to all the XFM shows, the classics and over time you really can see him get worse and worse. Plus take into account the fact that he had months off staring at bugs before the podcasts. Anyway good clip but prefer them in audiobook format, you don't lose some of the bits then.

[garysquirrelreviews]

karl doesnt believe it. its an act, even a child knows a chimp cant do tasks like a human. still funny though

[SickenedSince88]

@garysquirrelreviews

Yeah you're right mate. It's ironic that Ricky would abhor the suspension of disbelief necessary to enjoy his show.

[andyman5556]

[LeahsWhereuWanaB]

[vodka2727]

[GhostOfRockyHorror]

[dankku1995]

@Bagrah10 ...nicorn.

[digaritmo]

@Bagrah10 ...of the universe

[EvilMatters]

Ener notice how Karl never smiles...

[JTee93]

hahah i love all the podcasts. However, i can't help thinking that the animators have made Karl look more like a rape victim than someone with a head like a fucking orange!

5/5

[sellthemanicans]

"Its not just him though is it?"...HAHA So damn funny.

[Deiparous]

Derek Acorah is a twat

[AndyMoore303]

@Deiparous Damn right.

[JordanRobsonOfficial]

@Deiparous Yea, especially for telling Karl Pilkington that story.

[sirk79]

most brilliant funny thing in AGES

[jakeavakian]

looool ricky looks like fred flinstone

[lalu0481]

@jakeavakian Hahaha yes he does!!!!!

[adam8xz1]

@jakeavakian thats because thats the style they used as inspiration

[Archigearour]

"So this tankard's knockin' about."

[lanedek]

"Everytime someone touches it.......they die"

[CopyriteInfringement]

i wasnt sure about if this show would work, but wen u watch a full episode it really does work, and is brilliant. the youtube clips dont do it justice, the animation style growns on you, i can see why they did it in this style, its fkn shit that the americans get to watch it first, gervais is such a traitor to england. so i was forced to download episodes from stagevu(DOT)com,

[madanimal]

why does ricky look like barney rubble? lol

[DopeQuest]

karl is a genius

[thunderstrk6]

now im not saying that the idea of touching it and dying is real, BUT, the idea of the devil's cup i think its called, is common in the UK and parts of europe, where they have a tankard that they put a drink in in order to have the devil satisfied and not causing trouble, and if you are to touch it while theirs still a drink in it it gives you bad luck, justa myth of course though

[baobaojames123]

This is funny as hell!

KARL HATERS CAN FUCK OFF YA CUNTS!!

[multitudinal]

Nah sorry these animations do not work. Its superflous and the lips are not in synch with the speech. it was made for audio, and thats how it should stay.

[baobaojames123]

FUCK OFF YA CUNT

[eiderjose]

Brilliant show HAHAHA
