These discs work for me, very funny series
The discs I recieved plays on PS4, and Blu-ray disc player. The people that say it doesn't work, recieved different disc or was putting them on upside down. Karl Pilkington is a very funny man and compared with Ricky Gervais, excellent. Great purchase!

No Subtitles on Season 2!
These Blurays are in fact for Region 2, so you either need a region-free bluray player or UK player.Season 2 of the show has no subtitles, which is a bummer.The show itself is outstanding, and is a must for any Gervais / Merchant / Pilkington fan.

Karl Pilkington is probably a genius
Karl Pilkington is either the legitimate article, or a comedic genius. One of the most entertaining shows of the last decade.

Must own it
I can't say this about many show but I could watch it over and over again and never get sick of it. It's like Rick Steve's with a seance of humor

I love Karl and I love this series but I can only watch it sparingly because his constant negativity gives me a headache lol.

Check region code FIRST! If you can find it!
Well, I couldn't find the region code in the description so I thought it'd be ok. Nope. Region 2 & 4... waste because it won't play in my region #1... the region code SHOULD BE IN THE DESCRIPTION! I bought this because it's my favorite show! So disappointed!

Great for two series, but three might test you.
I heard about Karl by watching The Ricky Gervais show. I always got incredibly irritated at Ricky and Stephen for, what appeared to be, bullying Karl. Or, when Karl said something that was perfectly normal and/or intelligent they laughed at him as if every single thing Karl said was expected to be stupid. I do think a lot of what Karl got was uncalled for and if it was staged then it just sets a bad example. Series 1 and 2 of this were great and the special features were fantastic. Series 3 with Warrick left me feeling not as sorry for Karl as I was before. He seemed to bully Warrick. He was condescending, ignorant and discriminatory, and Warrick took it like a complete gentleman.Overall the show was very funny. I needed a laugh. I knew Karl never failed to make me laugh in the past and I recently went through a tough time and I needed a distraction and to have a few belly laughs. This DVD set did not disappoint, but if you like Karl now, series 3 might test that a lot. Series 3 has 3 episodes whereas series 1 and 2 have significantly more.

ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS! GUARANTEED TO CHEER YOU UP!!
You must get this, even if you don't know anything about Karl Pilkington! He is the funniest guy alive!I always put him on when I feel stressed out etc from a hard day at work, and he always cheers me up!Absolutely hilarious.Not only do you get to laugh, you get to see the world, so it helps when planning your next holiday ;).I find that he is actually very honest - so if he doesn't like something, he'll say it! Always useful when planning to go to a place he's visited in the show!You must get it, I guarantee that you'll laugh!

Best TV in ages.
I have seen all three seasons of Idiot Abroad at least twice on TV, but wanted to watch them again, so buying this when on sale was a no brainer.The first two series are simply the greatest TV ever. Watching poor Karl having to cope with the different aspects of humanity all over the world makes my cry with laughter over and over again.I do think the third series is the weakest as Warrick Davies adds very little to the show other than being genuinely annoying and coming across as a guy who just wants to boost his career and I actually feel for Karl when he moans him.But without the third series you don't get to watch Karls struggles with the wider world in general.brilliant.

We love Karl Pilkington
We love Karl Pilkington, and what can I say - we love this set of DVDs. His humour is so off-beat, and whilst I'm not normally a fan of anything involving Ricky Gervais, I can deal with his presence on these episodes.We watched these when they were on TV, and became slightly gutted when they were no longer available to stream, so I bought the DVDs for my bf for a present - they were a really reasonable price on Amazon, and next day delivery which is perfect.Karl has all number of begrudging adventures, and part of the joy of watching them is trying to figure out if he's learnt to enjoy them yet. Each series is also just as good as the last - well worth it if you like him.
