Pretending to be mentally disabled, for laughs, bit much...
Acting is another word for pretending. What about Tom hanks pretending to be Forest Gump, or Dustin Hoffman Rainman? Why is it OK to play disabled people for sentimental twaddle but not in a comedy?
I haven't seen the new series, but judging by the last one that's not what he's doing. I'm not a big fan of it, but I like seeing Karl Pilkington acting.
