I really enjoy seeing people do their own versions in their own styles. First episode of Task Mistress was really good, I'm just starting this one now but looking forward to it.

Can’t wait!

Looks like another great season.

I still think my favorite David moment is the one from series 3, but the lights out quick change is up there.

He was UNHINGED. Tons of fun to watch!

If there was a god this would be 5x longer.

Lol

Don't kid yourself: you'll be watching all, just not on one weekend.😁

There are two mega playlists, one for all UK episodes and one for all AUS and NZ episodes.

The first UK season is already great. While it's not required, I suggest watching chronologically. Sometimes they haven't yet established some convention and watching backwards caused me some confusion.

Edit, found the playlists: https://www.youtube.com/@jimmykins3142/playlists (misremembered the exact makeup of the playlists)

Thanks. That’s helpful.

Thanks, I’ll check them out. I’m looking forward to the next one in the uk with Richard ayoade and Matt Lucas. Both should fit the format well. However, it’s the comedians I don’t know that have surprised me the most at tasks, probably as I don’t have preconceptions about their lateral thinking ability.

UK Series 7, NZ Season 2 are absolute musts

For Taskmaster UK: From the more recent series(!) Series 19 was pretty well regarded I think. Overall series 5, 7 and 14 (I think) tend to often crop up in the comments as fan faves. Haven't watched all of the NZ and AU ones yet, but I think the most recent NZ one and the AU one before this one were both very good. Overall it really doesn't matter much though because the shows are pretty much consistently good imo

I haven't seen this episode, but started watching the first few. Does anyone have recommendations for good seasons due to good guests. With 20 odd UK ones, NZ ones too, I won't be watching all.

I’m so happy this is finally up and SO sad they decided to hard-code English subs in their grimy typewriter font that’s hard to read! Why? Hopefully someone will add English CC soon 😩

Awesome, compilation. I didn't know there were Danish or Canadian versions!

I'm caught up on UK, AUS, NZ, and I'm on S2 of Sweden's Bast I Test. Which reminds me, Sweden did this task too! Why aren't they in the compilation?

Probably because of competing TV rights.

Available everywhere else.

'Not available in your country".

Didn't taskmaster origin in UK? why the hell is this then blocked in the UK. Dumb.

Leg up, Johnny!

That rap reminded me of the Hiphopopotomus (whose lyrics are bottomless). Kumail's t-shirt was a very Alex-style joke so I'm not surprised it didn't get many marks.

Joel's near miss was a thing of beauty.

I don't think I'd have been able to pick a winner for the pillow fight videos either, although I'm pretty sure he's given everyone five points at least once before.

I'm kinda glad that Joel didn't get any points for the egg, and it was just trolling. Like a labrador, he's just happy to be involved.

To me, I feel it had pretty much all the ingredients of a good/great season. Both Toms settled in to their roles fairly well in the first season already, pretty much all the contestants were fairly iconic with very unique characters and some standout moments, the "bad improv group" was very fun in the team tasks and I liked that it seemed to have a higher proportion of creative/open ended tasks than TM UK usually has, which I prefer.

It's new.

didn't know about the international channel, thanks!

Definitely way better than NZ Season 1 imo.

Really? Not that I think that NZ S1 was super great but to me the Aussie S1 cast did not have a dynamic, cuts seemed forced, etc.

I thought it was pretty strong. Definitely way better than NZ Season 1 imo.

Not a fan of this season but still noteworthy
