I have not seen this show, but now I have a burning NEED to. Hahaha. Those gadgets are so terrible, and Richard Ayoade's face is a picture. Thank you vidder. You have pimped this show well.

OMG, THIS IS AMAZING! Thank you so much for making this for me! The song is perfect and your editing is so crisp... this vid is an absolute delight! I've already watched it three times and I look forward to watching it again immediately, and then probably a fifth time so I can dance along to it, and then many times in the future!

The opening with Richard's automated morning routine! The robot falling down to "over"! Then Richard flopping onto the bed! The montage of drones! Richard booping the seal on the nose for "better"! The montage of robots ending with the wink! The store mannequin expanding to "stronger"! The music section with the instruments and the dancing robots! Ending with a montage of Richard's excellent facial expressions!

You can't imagine how happy this vid has made me! Gadget Man is one of my comfort shows that I re-watch when I'm feeling down, and this vid distills all my favorite things about it -- ridiculous tech and Richard's stoic humor.

I watched this with two friends and their first reaction was, "This is so good, Gadget Man should use this as promotional material." And I definitely agree!

I can answer that! Gadget Man is a show that ostensibly reviews new technology, but is really more of an excuse to play around with ridiculous gadgets and make jokes. Stephen Fry hosted the first season, but Richard Ayoade has hosted since then.

Several full episodes and many, many clips are on YouTube.

Two things: 1)the world just does not have enough vids with Daft Punk songs in them and 2) how the hell did I not know Richard Ayoade had a series featuring tech stuff???!!!

This is so cleverly edited I absolutely love it!
