I love how Karl treats his laundromat wedding like he's a game show host, like you can walk away with what you've got already, or you can gamble it all on this next part 😆

2025-09-20 15:55:23 +0000 UTC“That’s her problem, she has too much skin for her bones” 😂😂 I love my mental picture of Susan based on Karl’s descriptions, a big blonde woman with a square head, big ass and too much skin.

2025-09-15 22:11:59 +0000 UTCExcellent to see Mr K Dilkington back up on this channel.
Dave Henshall
2025-09-15 21:36:47 +0000 UTCHe is persistent though, so even with their insane laughter and bickering he would have got his own thoughts through in the end. For the audience it is nice for once to not always have Gervais laughing and interrupting (and his laugh is almost so montone now it could be a standard laugh-track to any stupid sitcom and make it a winner)
Christopher Bergren
2025-09-15 20:09:12 +0000 UTCWow, that disguised smell-sensation party for singles - what a fantastically great way of unweaponization in awkward situations of what a real blind-date usally ends up with. I have to promote that here. You know - instead of having to awkwardly say - I truly find you ugly or boring - just say, I waver more towards the esoterics of the morning-mist of...cough, will you ecuse me
Christopher Bergren
2025-09-15 19:39:16 +0000 UTCAlso a bit surprised that you thought five days was a long wedding. well it is, but mine went on for three days until the last guests left the premises =) I would love to hear how a typical Florida-wedding works (if there is a "typical" or traditional)
Christopher Bergren
2025-09-15 19:24:00 +0000 UTCI think Karl is more relaxed without his two tormentors and I must say it's better for it.

2025-09-15 19:14:04 +0000 UTCOnly only one screening scared the shit out of me. My ex-wife (Lithuanian) her grand-father was an ex-KGB officer and after I had proposed i found myself sitting on his bed (very old guy) with my ex-wifes daughter translating. The questitioning was great though and very heartfelt, but his voice - wow, you could hear he had been in charge in old Soviet =D So scary. But the girl, about 14 at the time, just laughed and translated between us and finally I got this big hug from that old legend that almost choked me and I was accepted. I passed =D But I would never accept anything like that again. If relatives do not agree, than I say it is just between two people who decide if "we two" are the important ones in the relationship or our whole sick family-history
Christopher Bergren
2025-09-15 19:05:04 +0000 UTCAfter a wedding at the laundromat, surely you'd have to have your gender reveal at the laundromat. Maybe a red or blue sock put in with a white tshirt. That actually would be cute

2025-09-15 14:49:24 +0000 UTCPeep Show will return Oct. 19th. We put all the info about our schedule in the pinned post and the about section.

2025-09-15 14:19:28 +0000 UTCNo Peep Show?
Stuart McKenzie
2025-09-15 14:08:32 +0000 UTCMy daughter and son-in-law got married 16 years ago on a gulet in Turkey. They gave everyone who wanted to attend 18 months notice. They had lived together for five years, and 40 people attended. Everyone treated it as their summer holiday and stayed on after the wedding. We had an amazing time.
Karina Bailey
2025-09-15 13:44:57 +0000 UTCI get the importance of making a commitment, making vows to the person you love. I just don’t like the costs that are involved nowadays. I used to work in a florists and as soon as the order was for a wedding (or funeral) the costs per stem sky rocketed. I think people are taken advantage of at some of the most important and emotional times of their lives. I don’t fancy a laundromat wedding but I get what Karl is saying about the simplicity being the important part ☺️
Andrea Logan
2025-09-15 10:32:24 +0000 UTCI agree with him on destination weddings. Deeply ridiculous idea. And the sniff party is nasty. And I felt bad for the gal in glasses when he just bandons her for a lady the thinks is hotter.
Dandelion
2025-09-15 10:11:18 +0000 UTCThis is why I watch you guys. Thanks for being such a great example of how relationships really work.

2025-09-15 08:54:54 +0000 UTCI salute any happily married couples out there, I wish them all the best 👍We are planning on getting engaged next summer and one day i get to marry the love of my life and the mother to our 2 beautiful children ❤️
Mark R
2025-09-15 08:54:14 +0000 UTCI don’t think it’s a belief. I had to look it up myself to get the proper definition. It might be the wrong word, but people do have a scent.
Julian
2025-09-15 08:11:03 +0000 UTCMike !! 20:00 I heard and watched that same story haha. I think they followed him for a few weeks and found out he wasn’t what he said he was. Pretty sure we’re on about the same thing here
Mark Rudd
2025-09-15 01:04:17 +0000 UTCIf you watch the set where Karl says, 5 bedrooms,,, the family was instantly interested 😆😆
Mark Rudd
2025-09-15 00:58:06 +0000 UTCJust a heads up @RegenerationNationTV Ricky Gervais did not produce The Moaning of Life; the documentary series was executive produced by Richard Yee and Krishnendu Majumdar for Me & You Productions. Ricky also done a series called Derek that has majority of them all in it including karl 🤣
Dan Anderson
2025-09-15 00:54:00 +0000 UTCThe one I've been waiting for since Idiot abroad 🤣🤣🤣 brilliant!!!!
Dan Anderson
2025-09-15 00:37:09 +0000 UTCNo worries friend. We do have it posted as the pinned post and in the about section, but Patreon is not laid out the best. We've always alternated shows after a series ends. For example. Our Sunday slot started with An Idiot Abroad series 1. Once that finished we alternated to The Inbetweeners series 1, then back to An Idiot Abroad for series 2, then back to The Inbetweeners for series 2. We do this until a show ends, then we vote on what will replace it. Right now our Sunday slot has Peep Show and The Moaning of Life rotating with each other. The Moaning of Life S1 has 5 episodes, so Peep Show will return Oct 19th for S2. Hope this helps to make sense of things.

2025-09-15 00:16:58 +0000 UTCPoor Suzanne, Karl made out he'd just like somewhere wide enough to roll her through while grabbing a burger. It looked to me those Indian women just hoped Karl would have a shave for the wedding. It's a pity you can't smell a red flag, that insta-argument smell-fiend woman was rattling for a good argument and, Karl might as well have facepalmed the glasses, koala poo lady away, brutal, Karl ! heheh. still, poor Suzanne. Ah well, she could take him to the cleaners yet married or not.
emu cat
2025-09-15 00:15:14 +0000 UTCApologies if this is a silly question but in terms of the schedule, when do the Peep Show eps get uploaded now? Is it like a season of peep show and a season of this or every other week? Not that I'm complaining just asking cos I'm not sure.

2025-09-15 00:08:19 +0000 UTCOmg yes memory unlocked! 😂

2025-09-14 23:11:41 +0000 UTCA craze started on the internet to find out who was Suzanne and what she looked like, and searches kept linking her to be suzanne from the pop idol band Hearsay and her picture would show up, so funny
Michael
2025-09-14 23:09:06 +0000 UTCYup. There's some science that between a Mother and a new born baby have attractions to them, with suckling and stuff. but yeah, not a thing in humans.

Emma Edwards
2025-09-14 22:30:32 +0000 UTCI really wish I could get behind the idea of marriage for myself. I love it for others, and used to want to get married. But as someone who's survived numerous abusive relationships and engagements and the statistics of people being murdered or nearly murdered by their husband or wife, who they thought they knew, completely puts me off. The idea of not being able to completely run away from someone stresses me out. But I do love seeing other people in love.
Chosos Wife
2025-09-14 22:24:49 +0000 UTCYou don't look old enough to have been married for 20 years 🥹
Chosos Wife
2025-09-14 22:22:14 +0000 UTCIm howling at Jess crying and getting emotional at the laundromat wedding 😭 you're so precious 🫶🏻
Chosos Wife
2025-09-14 22:17:25 +0000 UTCI definitely share Karl's views on weddings, I wouldn't like to have all the guests and fuss so if I was ever to get married one day I would probably do it in a Vegas drive-through or even a laundrette and get my washing done too 😂 also you 2 are such a good example of a healthy, loving marriage and if its not like yours then I don't want it! 🥰
Nicola
2025-09-14 22:07:15 +0000 UTCYeah there's 2 and 3. Got them in a Cinderella box set. 3 is better than 2. But a lot of Disney movies have straight to DVD sequels such as Lion King, Little Mermaid and Hunchback of Notre Dame etc
Danny
2025-09-14 22:00:25 +0000 UTCHe closed Round Ed productions down and started Alrite Productions Limited
Danny
2025-09-14 21:55:40 +0000 UTCIf its not too much of a personal question, how did you propose Mike?
Josh Read
2025-09-14 21:52:10 +0000 UTCI prefer this to Idiot Abroad, it's better not having Ricky and Steve just trying to wind him up constantly. Karl's just naturally funny, you simply don't need to manipulate the situations like they used to.
Stephen Prince
2025-09-14 21:43:50 +0000 UTCWhen Karl asked if she wore a lot of jewellery, it reminded me of the true fact that Indian housewives collectively own more gold than all the rest of the world's gold combined, including the rest of the world's government gold reserves.

Paul Craigen
2025-09-14 21:38:27 +0000 UTCThink other people have mentioned but Ricky wasn't involved with this. Karl created his own production companies and got licensed by Sky. RoundEd Productions.. literally haha
Karlos
2025-09-14 21:36:02 +0000 UTCI was friends with a Sikh girl I worked with. I remember her crying when she found out she was going to have an arranged marriage, so we drank some gin and talked it out. Anyway, she went through with it, fell in love with the guy and by all accounts (from what I know) they've been happily married for over 10 years and have kids. So, I guess it can work.
Karlos
2025-09-14 21:33:41 +0000 UTCWhen the boiler’s knackered?! That’s probably the one time I wished I WAS married so that I don’t have to fix everything on my own 😂
Emma Edwards
2025-09-14 21:27:34 +0000 UTCJess shall we send our shirts in so you can test Mike? 🤣
Josh Read
2025-09-14 21:26:49 +0000 UTCYou're right, Karl created his own 2 companies for this. I'm not sure if he just wanted more money or more control (not staying in crappy hotels etc). The funny part is one of his companies is called RoundEd Productions :D
Karlos
2025-09-14 21:19:17 +0000 UTCYeh guys it might be worth skipping the intro.

2025-09-14 20:56:02 +0000 UTCYou’re the first person I’ve ever seen cry at the laundromat wedding. That’s lovely Jess😆
Sam Dilks
2025-09-14 20:49:15 +0000 UTCVery great reaction and lovely conversation at the end there was well, totally agree with you. One thing in paticular that I love your reactions is not only are you both genuine and likeable people, but the love you have in your marriage really shines through in your interactions with each other. So I knew this would be an interesting reaction once we got to The Moaning of Life!
Clowd
2025-09-14 20:23:26 +0000 UTCKarl is actually wrong as the other day in a charity shop I saw cinderella 3 on dvd. I didn't know there was a 2 let alone 3.
Josh Read
2025-09-14 20:23:01 +0000 UTCMoaning of Life intro is TERRIBLE for spoilers. An episode preview BEFORE the episode is insane

Sinead R
2025-09-14 20:06:39 +0000 UTCSeries 1 episode 1 of this goes on YouTube ok usually. The rest of it, no chance without very heavy filters and even then they normally get pulled eventually. Theres only a scattering of reactions on YouTube to it of random episodes that stayed up with heavy filters and editing
Danny
2025-09-14 20:06:13 +0000 UTCOh I wasn't expecting this. Nice one 👌. I think I still have my deleted scenes for both series of this so can sort that out for you

Col Boro
2025-09-14 19:56:59 +0000 UTCHumans don't have pheremones btw. This is typical American bs. They're smelling perfume and deodrant, nothing more. Men and women do smell different but got nothing to do with pheremones. I'm sure it's a great way to meet but there's absolutely no science involved.
SomeBSName
2025-09-14 19:56:45 +0000 UTCHi guys, at the beginning, when Karl was at the meeting, that was a real family and set-up with their daughter...and i don't think Ricky was involved in Moaning of life!

Jamie Derry
2025-09-14 19:20:21 +0000 UTCArranged marriages are simply business transactions. That's why they were interested as soon as they heard he owned a house in England. It works but it's all about money, nothing to do with the person. He even said we have another one who makes this much, as soon as he owns a house fuck the other person.

Brad Johnson
2025-09-14 19:17:08 +0000 UTCI might actually enjoy this series more than Idiot Abroad. Even though I love Idiot Abroad, it started to get uncomfortable the more Steve and Ricky put Karl through shit. Felt like a practical joke that went a little too far. Moaning of Life allows Karl to be himself, without him getting too miserable.
Jay
2025-09-14 19:14:11 +0000 UTCNever watched this, but love Karl!! Really looking forward to watching it along with you guys over the coming weeks!

2025-09-14 18:54:04 +0000 UTCGutted you've switched from Peep Show. I know it maybe hadn't fully clicked yet, but it's one of the best-loved UK comedies in the last few decades and only gets better and better. Hope you get back to it asap.
Simon Charlie
2025-09-14 18:53:57 +0000 UTCYes its better than Netflix Disney and Prime put together
