Karl Pilkington - Top Negotiator

[@FernieCanto]

The animation in this is amazing. They managed to turn it into an actual story despite the chaotic talking, with Ricky going in and out of character and whatnot. Incredible and hilarious.

[@Azrael442]

i agree but it is HBO, they dont really do half measures

[@quantumblurrr]

The animation is cheap... you mean the art style or the composition

[@quantumblurrr]

Tanner Miller Simple flash

[@JD-Media]

I think he means how they actually adapted in to play out like it was designed to.

[@adamwilson232]

I think they've definitely gone for a Hanna Barbera look

[@Tom-bn6pr]

I love Karl. He's not that impressed with a man who is LAPD and SWAT but is fascinated by insects like ants

[@Big_Fat_Ugly]

Tom 22 And the immune system

[@ianfarrugia4495]

ants are fascinating though

[@TranceSuperWave]

"I'll just leave then." I love how he just cant be bothered and would let all the hostages die.

[@bicolouredprawn]

+TranceSuperWave Lol, yeah! That's Karl all over! He never ever admits when he's wrong/talking rubbish.

[@Stuurminator]

It's his last week anyway.

[@vantheman1234]

He’d rather be having a coffee at the British Legion

[@taylor1999gamer]

He doesn’t have time, he has DIY work to do and his boiler needs fixing.

[@gemstar7286]

💀💀 LOL

[@WillWivellAnimator]

I cracked up when Karl fumbled with the megaphone. Great example of the animation enhancing the original material.

[@borednow5838]

This is one of Ricky's most entertaining performances.

[@fredrydmusic1]

And also one of the funniest moments of Karl especially his line in the end "Ah, I just leave then.". He's really fucking funny!

[@ForzaEnforcer]

"There's only one person we can ask for...get me Karl Pilkington" *Cue dramatic entrance* The best part in this scene IMO

[@SlamHannigan]

Sahrun If this were the trailer for a feature-length movie I would see it five times

[@jakkuwolfinsomnia8058]

The US president sat in his top secret classified military bunker with the world's greatest secret service agents with a world radar preparing for nuclear war against Putin and Kim Jong Un so he needs the best negotiator and President Obama says: "There's only one man we can ask for...Get me Karl Pilkington." Dramatic close-up on President Obama's face and personal administrative assistant gasps at his request: so speechless she nods her head and runs to fulfil the request. President Obama then puts his hands together and has a serious look: "he's the only man who can save us now..." 😠

[@gregorjamesfergusarnott1024]

You know whenever Ricky asks "what do you think of that Karl?" you're in for a hilarious answer.

[@DrugzRKoool]

What Karl means is that it's like being a vet, in that there is an unspoken agreement that you will try your best to save that life, but also that if that person/animal dies, you did all you could.

[@TheKrigeron]

I think he also meant that the person/animal is expected to die.

[@staticshotaop561]

TheKrigeron wring

[@TotinosPizzaRollz]

I think Karl meant, "If it dies, it's just an animal. No great loss."

[@arstulex]

@@TotinosPizzaRollz Not really. Especially considering how sympathetic Karl is towards most animals (except jellyfish lmao). His point was that when a cat is on the brink of death and it at the point of being on an operating table it is already expected to die. If the vet somehow manages to save it then that's a bonus, but the vet is not *expected* to do so. Likewise, the moment those people were taken hostage they were already considered doomed. If the negotiator can save them then that's a bonus. If the negotiator says something that pisses off the terrorist to the point where they kill a hostage, nothing was lost that wasn't already lost the moment that person was taken hostage. That same hostage would have likely been killed anyway regardless. In other words, there is a difference between "failed to save them" and "got them killed".

[@unknown6390]

@@TotinosPizzaRollz Lol its probably not what he meant but in his fumbling way he really made it sound like that

[@Kleavers]

I was in tears the first time I heard the hostage bit on the podcast.

[@bd603]

You’re a hero mate

[@itsMattydud3]

That bit when ricky was acting as the criminal and he goes "DON'T EVER FUCKING SAY NO TO ME!" Made me weak with laughter

[@PurushaDesa]

Ricky as a crazed terrorist is fucking hysterical. 😂 He’s actually quite scary!

[@aisosaihama]

We need a feature length of Karl as Top Negotiator this would be too brilliant

[@sailordarty9032]

It was known as the stealthiest SWAT mission ever. The gunman was so busy arguing with the negotiator, he didn't notice the police had already knocked down the door.

[@MrSpazDoctor]

The music accompanies this perfectly

[@JadeiteMcSwag]

what is the name of it

[@Guinness4h2o]

The grins on Stephen and Ricky's faces as police as Karl is trying to negotiate just slay me.

[@itsMattydud3]

It kills me EVERY TIME when Ricky goes "DON'T EVER FUCKING SAY NO TO ME" in that character voice

Karl Pilkinton: Top Negotiator. this needs to be a movie

[@MW-tv4mv]

Love how it's all American but with British police uniforms

[@Utonian21]

I believe that was intentional due to all of them being English, I think the animaters just didn't want to draw British police cars as well, lol

[@ONLYFOOLSNVIDEOS]

Actually that could work- Karl saying I'm leaving. The criminal could be like 'wtf' and look out the window and then get shot in the head.

battermix it'd be better to have actual contributors of this world than pointless idolised mediocrity earning so much that seeing that they have such luxury whilst there are those who are starving and those who are homeless makes your blood boil with rage. I'd rather live in a world functioning on the written word of communism than the unjust, unfair reality we currently reside in, but alas, the concept of communism doesn't factor for the selfishness and evils of the human condition.

[@comicbook325]

battermix remind me again the amount starving in the US in comparison to say, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland and Norway and tell me that being a socialist is the wrong way. If you create revenue through demand but factored in the importance the job has to your society then maybe law enforcement, health services and other jobs of use in both the US and my own country, the UK, wouldn't be in entire fucking shambles trying to scrape the bottom of the barrel for funding. I don't believe in communism in practice because it'd would never work, but you're an absolute bullshiter if you say that socialism can't.
