The Horne Section TV Show

One of few sitcoms that's as good on second and third viewings, because there are so many jokes and references that you won't get them all on the first viewing. It's very Alex Horne, in the best possible way - clever, funny, silly, and quite insightful about power and what it does to people.

If you're familiar with Alex Horne's work, there are a lot of familiar faces and themes. The "Alex Horne" of the show is like a satire version of actual Alex Horne, and he sends himself up brilliantly. All in all, a sweet, delightful show that leaves you feeling happy and will brighten your day. Considering this is a first attempt at acting and scriptwriting, it is impressive. I hope we get more!

I have to admit, I was a bit nervous about what this show would be like but I was so incredibly pleasantly surprised. Alex Horne's character (or "character") is funny, relatable and immensely likeable (even at his most infuriating); the guest stars like Greg Davies, Desiree Burch and Tim Key feel like gifts to Taskmaster fans worldwide; and I was delighted by all the little references and surreal moments (Biff Chippington in the credits of the show within the show spun off from the other show?? Amazing).

Every Taskmaster fan absolutely owes it to themselves to learn more about the genius that is Alex Horne by giving this show a watch. And people who've never watched Taskmaster absolutely owe it to themselves to watch both!!

The long-awaited sitcom has arrived. It's part-Mockumentary, part scripted, part improvised and has musical interludes from Alex's band consisting of some of the UK's most in-demand musicians.

What happens when Alex Horne & his real-life band accidentally get a live sitcom? The answer is: comedy & chaos. Light-hearted entertainment, super songs & high-quality videos.

The band play exaggerated versions of themselves & their special guests are happy to send themselves up. Want to know Big Zuu's hobby? What terrifies Anneka Rice? What does Greg Davies want with the band? Which member of the band can unicycle? What is it about Trumpeter Joe Auckland (Madness/Noel Gallagher) that spooks everyone? Find out in this series.

The well-directed music videos of some of The Horne Section's best-known songs are worth watching. The musicians have never acted before & they do really well for a first attempt. A second series will allow them to boost their confidence even further as well as bringing more of their wonderfully witty and clever songs to a wider audience.

The taskmaster cinematic universe continues!!

This show is actually pretty fun! I had no idea what i was going into apart from it was about the band and was a comedy show and was pleasantly surprised !

It mainly is a show, about a show and Alex and his crew writing really random but hilarious music. Also, props to the band, they're really talented musicians and honestly they all play really hilarious characters!

The humour is quite niche, filled with purposefully cringy jokes and hilarious songs about peas and camels; Exactly what you'd expect from Alex Horne! I loved the random cameos too, Martin kemp was great and I loved Dr Ranj's segment about his car haha!

It's not everyone's kind of humour but if you enjoy Alex's segments on taskmaster then you'll love this! Awkward humour at its best!

I watched the show as someone that is a Taskmaster fan and quite familiar with Ale'x work, so I wasn't surprised that the concept and the style of the show would work for me but to be honest I was a bit worried that this would be a too niche show for those that don't follow Horne's work close enough to get all the easter eggs and inside jokes.

On a rewatch with a friend that was not familiar with the band I could see that yes if you are a fan you will enjoy it a lot more, but at the end of the series my friend was interested to know more about the band. She really enjoyed the songs and how light it was. And I agree, in a world that everything has to have a plot twist, a dense plot just for the sake of trying to be the center of attention on Twitter this show is a gem! It is fun for the sake of being fun.

My only problem with the show was that I wanted more from the band and I hope that if they get a second series they get more attention and please guys do the classics!

Tim Key and Greg were amazing on it, Desiree Burch was quite good too!

If you are a fan of Horne or the band you are in for a treat, if you are not you might be one of us by the end of the series.
