Taskmaster

I am overjoyed at the success this show has seen. It is so funny, so clever, so exciting, and overall so fun to watch. I watch and re-watch each series regularly. Highly, highly recommended.

And I just happened to stumble upon it randomly never heard of it before. I saw the USA version but the UK version is side splitting hilarious.

The barmy and bizarre comedy game show that pits mainly comedians against each in a series of hilarious tasks started life on the unusual place of UK Golds, and Dave channel. The station more well know for repeats and re runs.

It is the highest watched show over the entire UK Gold network and for a very good reason. For not only does the show keep itself fresh with 5 new faces every season but the kameradory between Greg and Little Alex Horne never goes stale.

Deffo worth watching box set to box set

There is something special about the humor of Taskmaster. It is a funny combination of the subtle remarks of the comedians and the overtly absurd tasks they have to complete. Although the first few series are great, they still hadn't found that balance which series 4/5 onward nails. Greg Davies and Alex Horne's comedic chemistry is truly phenomenal. Also the music and editing is surprisingly good too.

10/10.

I have to admit that when my husband wanted to watch this, I had never heard of it and was skeptical. But when I saw the good reviews on here, I said ok. Glad we did! We have only watched seasons 4&5, but thought they were both funny. I think 5 is a bit better though. I would love to do some of these types of challenges with my students!
