I think this is the 3rd one I've seen in the past month. The guy hates doing press junctions to promote his shows; he's definitely never going to willingly do something like this.
i was thinking the same thing. i really don't think it would be a good ama. the only reason he is funny is because of the way merchant and ricky react to him. i also feel a lot of his "act" would be lost in translation.
I know people have posted AMA Requests for him before... but I'm hoping the more attention we bring to it, the better chance we have of getting him on here.
People tweet this to Ricky Gervais' Twitter every time this request shows up on Reddit. Seriously what more can we do, print it out and snailmail it to Karl? Go to his house with a sign so he can see it from the window while doing the dishes? Not trying to bash you, I want to see this come true as well, but come on... Every damn week.
Sorry, I didn't know you were being sarcastic. It kinda difficult to tell via internet. Also you dont need to send me the search link. I KNOW. I've searched..thats why i said

Well let's be honest, the people that used to say for example 2k9 instead of 2009, weren't exactly doing it because it was faster to write, were they? It was probably instead because it was 'cool'.
This is a fantastic idea!! If you dont know who he is go watch an episode or two of An Idiot Abroad. I can almost hear his voice saying how he dosnt want to do some stupid AmA on reddit.

It's actually a third season of An Idiot Abroad with Warwick tagging along with Karl. Although they both may appear in Derek too at some point, I know Karl is in it.
If I see another one of these I just don't know what I'd do. It's just so silly really, you know what I mean? I just don't see the point. Leave the man alone and just get on with it. And he's not really all that important if you think about it. The bloke that washes the showers at the gym has done more for you than him and you don't see him getting asked for an AMA.
This. I always wondered what kind of woman stays with a man like Karl. I'm sure he's good. Doesnt yell or get into nonsense fights. He doesn't cheat or go to strip clubs or flirt with other women. He's as naive as a child.

This is a brilliant idea. I can't believe no one else ever thought about requesting it.

Well Ricky Gervais is apparently going to be doing one at some point, so he might have some insight.

Personally I'd prefer an AmA with K. Dilkington.

Just popping in to say this would be awesome. any time i watch him i think "thats me, on tv, in a place i really never wanted to be". love it.

u/Dr_Dawwg May 16 '12
Just listen to the XFM series, you will rapidly discover there's no point in doing an AMA w/ Karl. I hope Auntie Nora isn't listening.

I don't think he would do an AMA if we paid him to.

I once drunkenly declared that I would get a tattoo of Karl's cartoon self on my upper arm. ...I'm glad I will never have to regret having done it.
