I wish I spoke other languages. I love taskmaster but felt like I was missing too many facial expressions and moments of physical comedy by reading the subtitles when I watched the Norwegian version

    Australia and New Zealand have their own and multiple seasons of it already. Both are nearly as good as the original. They're definitely different but they're still hilarious.

    Oh yeah I LOVE those versions

    And we'll just pretend they never even tried one in the US.

    Technically Canada had one. But it was Quebecois. So never really aired outside the province I don't think.

    I feel like the network is what fucked that up and putting Reggie Watts there just...what? They should have kept the format and gotten someone like Liam Neeson to be the TM and then someone not so known to play the assistant.
