Ricky Gervais, of course, is the award-winning co-creator and star of The Office and Extras. Steve Merchant, who also stars in Extras, is his long-time creative partner. Karl is a pile of protoplasm that mimics the functions of a human being.

"If Mr. Gervais made only podcasts for the rest of his career, I'd keep downloading." (The New York Times)
"Listening to this makes life worth living!"
I would honestly walk over hot coals to know that these people would continue to make podcasts into their nineties. This is not comedy in the usual sense, this is listening to three naturally funny personalities conversing in a way you just have to listen to for yourself - to know is to enjoy! Listen to them all! I do feel a bit sorry for Karl Pilkington though, I think they can be a bit rough on him! I think he is a genius in his own way, quite clearly!
Most of it rubbish but amongst it sometimes there is a deep statement, love him! Listen and you will be hooked!
"Ricky, Steve and Karl on top form."
Love it. I have every piece of audio theyve ever done, and love it all. Its so unique, and not just their comedy, each audiobook is different, not as repetitive as i thought it'd be.
Just cant wait for the rest of their "Guide to" series :D
"GENIUS"
I ONLY SUBSCRIBE BECAUSE OF THESE PODCASTS / AUDIOBOOKS. GERVAIS, MERCHANT AND PILKINGTON ARE IN A LEAGUE ENTIRELY OF THEIR OWN.
"Fantastic"
I love this trio! They are so funny. I listen to various series most days. It can be embarrassing when I'm listening to them while undo the weekly shop because they have me roaring with laughter!
"A Successful Formula"
Enjoyable up to a point.
However I wonder if this threesome can go on much longer when the only substance appears to be the loveable baffoon (Pilkington) being the butt of all the jokes.
"Ricky Gervais Show: The Complete Fifth Season"
As usual this is absolutely wonderful and it's so good to hear the three guys back with each other again. The only problem is, when I downloaded this, I expected each individual episode to be its own file... but they are all in one long file, which is wrong. If I want to listen to episode 2 only, I need to forward all the way through episode 1. Absolutely crazy.
"Funny in parts"
This is a very cheap download and while it is very funny in parts, it is basically just ramblings - and it doesn't last long either.
"really pants, i cant believe this cost me money"
a complete and utter waiste of my time and money. i jewned so much my jaw locked and spent the day in a&e which was more fun. why o why bother ricky and the two mutants with mics. shame on yous give the earnings to charity as recompence.
