    In this Broadcast Award-winning, BAFTA and Emmy Award-nominated entertainment show, Taskmaster tyrant Greg Davies (Man Down, Cuckoo), with the help of his loyal assistant Alex Horne (The Horne Section and the show’s creator), sets out to test the wiles, wit and wisdom of five hyper-competitive comedians.
    Comedians that have risked life, limb, and dignity in the hope of making the Taskmaster proud so far include: Frank Skinner (The Frank Skinner Show), Mel Giedroyc (The Great British Bake Off), Romesh Ranganathan (Asian Provocateur), Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’ Diary), Rose Matafeo (Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner 2018), and Russell Howard (The Russell Howard Hour). Unaware of what awaits them in each wax-sealed envelope, only one competitor can become the victorious owner of His Royal Task-ness’ golden head and be crowned the next Taskmaster Champion.

      Rule was not to get out of the boat. Which technically means you can't touch the ground. Just like the 'knock over all the ducks without leaving the mat' task, and even though they still touched the mat, they were DQd when a single foot hit the ground.

      I mean, it definitely feels somewhat off compared to the other series, especially the studio segments, but we have to remember that it was the first series filmed after Covid, with much of the filming taking place during the early days when restrictions were severe and confusing. I don't think having to have crew and cast physically seperated really helps, either. Considering all that, they did quite well in my opinion; could have been a lot worse.

      Part of it is no live studio audience, the fact there were so many oddball contestants, and for me personally Catherine Parkinson was just such a rubbish contestant. She had a few moments but was otherwise just uninteresting and unfunny as a contestant. That being said I do like her other work as an actress, I just don't think this was the kind of show that suited her best.

    • @iliketrains3495
      @iliketrains3495 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      Daisy is comfortably the worst contestant of all time IMO, but I think the biggest issue with the series is the tasks, a lot of them were excessively complicated and felt like Greg was overcorrecting for not being strict enough on the rules in previous series, plus it also features one of the most awkward moments in the show when Katherine gets upset that Greg lambasted her masks.
      But it's often said that even the worst series of Taskmaster are better than most TV, and it's true. (Also I think series 8 is the worst one)
