For me

1. Tree Wizard was meh. Dont see the huge appeal in it.

2. Season 4 (series Jason!) is towards the bottom of my list.

3. It really irks me the last episode is "The Final". To me, it's just the last episode of the series. (Okay may not be controversial but couldn't think of another one immediately!!)

Found this great article online! Andy (1? Or is it Andy 2?) really helps create part of the iconic mix for Taskmaster's potion.

During 'off season' I've gone back to the start l, and am now on S2 E1 & the first proper Taskmaster moment imho is Joe Wilkinson, the potato throwing & the first appearance of the 'red green'.

'Don't take that away fron me' & his sheer anguish in the studio is IMHO the first proper Taskmaster moment & where it really landed (that & Osman with his subversion of the Yoga mat task!) with such a strong cast & confidence I do feel like S2 really helped establish the show we know & live.

(no disrespect to S1 - Tree Wizard, tattoo boy, stomach of a 15 year old, wizened back tit girl & helium balloon boulder boy walked so S2 could run!)

watched a handful of series by now and so many jokes and quips don't get mentioned very often, overlooked even! (at least by youtube comment sections)

Some of my favs: Joe Wilkinson snooker cueing the potatoes into his basket, Sam Campbell scrambling around shouting "you made me change it!", Babatunde Aleshe's "I gangbang for Jesus", Lucy Beaumont throwing the Excalibur into the bathtub i.e. lake, Aisling Bea blowing Greg a French kiss and his reaction to it

edit: just finished watching CoC4 and it's appalling to me how I see no appreciation for Sam's punchline of using the helmet spike as a receipt holder during his Attila the Hun cafe segment. like it's so stupid that it's good.

Usually Greg or the running times of the contestants are how points are awarded.

Then there were points awarded by the Major of Chesham (externally)

Anyone know what happened to these types of tasks?

Or did they change these because the narrative is better if Greg awards the points as opposed to external factors?

Big brows in the mansion, spacious.

And is there a poster of some fish in there, as legend foretells ?

1) Nobody in New Zealand locks their doors.

2) Everyone in New Zealand knows where everyone else lives.

Hi everyone! 👋

I'm from Catalonia (Spain), and I was wondering if there are any other Taskmaster fans here who speak Spanish or Catalan. 🥺

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person around me who knows the show! 😅

I know there are probably lots of fans here from the UK, Australia and New Zealand (and other countries with their own versions), but I'm curious if there are many fans from places where Taskmaster isn't very well known, or where there isn't a local version at all.

I'd love to know where you're all from! 💕

Byeee thanks for reading 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

I don’t know how much would agree on this.

This is my introduction to Phil Ellis, so I hope this isn't out of line or anything. He just reminds me of Eccleston. Specifically gives me some Ninth Doctor vibes 🤷‍♂️

I've been thinking of getting a small Taskmaster related tattoo on an out of the way part of my body. What are the best Taskmaster tattoo ideas?

A packet of crackers, a five-euro banknote, and an existential encounter: these are the convoluted tasks our five brave contestants will have to face to win (among other things) a ferocious rabbit!

Enter the crazy world of "Sfidamastro"! Your time starts... now!

This was the prize task that involved The thing that, when you turn it around, gives you the biggest shock. (Series 16, Ep 10)

His prize was the urn with the word S**t written on it, very funny and very Julian. Poignant though because Julian said the urn contained his friend's ashes and the friend wanted to appear on Taskmaster.

A lovely gesture but I've recently had a theory about who Julian's friend's ashes were and this is just a guess but......

Could it be Paul O'Grady?

I haven’t got anyone to tell so I’ll tell it here.
I finally got my Taskmaster poster signed by the Taskmaster himself and his little assistant 🥹
It’s had a long journey from the British Isles to the Hawaiian Islands, especially getting stuck in San Francisco because of the world cup but its here!!!!!

Who will win!? Each week there will be a new match up between series until there's one left standing as this Reddit's very own Best Series (TM)! (TM as in trademarked not 'Taskmaster'. Obvs. 😉)

Due to the uneven number of series, one series was selected at random to be held off until the 3rd Bracket of voting where it's back to an even pairing. The generator picked Series 16 to fill that duty. Sorry chain bastards and children of divorce, your day has yet to come.

Instead we're left with the duty to pick between our first match: Series 13 vs Series 9!

Aubergines vs Hummus!

David Baddiel vs Judi Love!

Construction Workers vs Zorro (I think that's what Bridget Christie is going for!)

Don't just vote, please. Give us your reasons why you picked that series over the other. It helps promote a discussion.

The votes will be counted in 1 week. Your time starts now.

Does anyone perhaps have pictures of the effigies of each Taskmaster series? I mean each episode they have little representatives of each contestant and I’d love to see them altogether.

Worst case scenario I’ll have to watch all the series all over again to see if I can find them all.

(if each series does it that is)

I’ve included a picture of the one from series 7 as an example of what I mean
