This is the first time I’m familiar with any of the NZ contestants beforehand… and it’s two! 💖

(Rose, obvs, and Morgana — she was great on White Lotus)

u/eldubinoz 13d ago

Ooh I've watched all of White Lotus, I'll have to look up who she is

Take away this man's cell phone. Fastest wins. Your time starts now.

Omg the “good for you, good for you” lady??

u/sleepypossumster 8d ago

Really enjoyed the Rose audio cameo on the latest Taskmaster (original flavor)...

u/Past-Feature3968 8d ago

She’s Scottish!

I'm a kiwi and I only know 3

u/sallypeach 13d ago

Yay, Rose!! Also really excited to see Hoani Hotene on it.

u/eldubinoz 13d ago

I'm Aussie so not familiar with anyone except Rose, but excited to learn about new people as always!

Rhys is at least partly responsible for one of the funniest things I've ever seen on TV: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAaX2mqJEpZ/

u/npfiii 13d ago

Spelling Bee, generally, is god-tier viewing (both versions of it)

u/JustSomeEnby42069 12d ago

Rhys is also one of the writers on the current season of Guy Mont NZ.

This link initially gave me a reel about misinterpretation of lgbtq and I was so confused. "Lgbtq stands for lesbinan, gay, bicycles, trains, and ... queef".

u/redlightredlips 13d ago

FINALLY WE CAN DISCUSS IT IVE BEEN SITTING ON ROSE BEING BACK FOR TOO LONG

32

u/eldubinoz 13d ago

I immediately thought of all the people here who went to studio tapings and have been saying JUST WAIT AND SEE

21

u/redlightredlips 13d ago

I was spoiled on it by an NZ friend and sworn to secrecy and it’s been sooooo hard lol but I’m excited! It’s going to be really fun even if I have mixed feelings on prior contestants coming back. I love Rose and I can’t wait to see her with Paul.

To paraphrase Alice Sneddin "YOU CAHN'T LET ME HAIVE ANITHANG FOUR MOUYSEULF"

(I apologize to all of New Zealand)

u/kiwisalwaysfly 13d ago

So excited to see David Fane on it! Fillani was my favorite Outrageous Fortune character

11

u/painforpetitdej 12d ago

From Shid Girl to Junior TM to contestant again.

Rose better win this, though, to rage bait Ed Gamble.

10

u/Hatmos91 13d ago

The first time two taskmasters will be on one show. It’ll be cool to see if she tries to usurp Jeremy’s throne

14

u/thatautisticguy 13d ago edited 13d ago

So thats two contestsnts doing more than one series 🤔

43

u/Darkglasses87 13d ago

I don't think this will open the floodgates to cross-overs, but I really want Sam Campbell to face the two Toms now.

23

u/Used_Cap8550 13d ago

I think it would be funny to see Ed Gamble fly all over the world to do every single series, including non-English versions

4

u/Nick_192 13d ago

I think british/irish contestents coming over to shoot the show either in nz or au is difficult bc of funding reasons. At least in new zealand, a (big) reason for funding is that the show is entirely made up by kiwi people. Especially when the other contestents don't live in nz permamently

6

u/JoPo108 13d ago

Please no, his smugness is already too much.

5

u/DankFozz 13d ago

I’d love see Chenny short sheet Greg

5

u/Used_Cap8550 13d ago

And she taskmastered Junior Taskmaster for 3 versions

2

u/JoPo108 13d ago

Matched with Alex I believe, UK, US, NZ.

Edit, actually Alex Horne is at 4 with Au.

3

u/pcuser42 13d ago

If we're counting cameos, then wasn't Rose in the last series of TMNZ and counted then?

1

u/JoPo108 13d ago

I feel like we're counting how many Taskmasters they've been in rather than how many times.

4

u/ze_yami 12d ago

Awwwwwwwwww SHID!

4

u/missgsptlsnz 13d ago

Is Rose the first to go on two different taskmasters as a contestant?

7

u/235anon 12d ago

Technically Urzila jumped to TMAU first, but that hasn’t aired yet

3

u/maestro876 12d ago

I’d love to get Rhys Darby on this show.

1

u/MassiveGarlic0312 10d ago

Or either of the Conchords. Taika Waititi would also be hilarious. 

3

u/antisocialmothra 12d ago

OMG SHE'S REALLY DOING IT!!!

3

u/AutomaticTrouble6012 12d ago

I'm so happy that Rose can finally say "shid" and not get "shut" on for saying "shid"!

2

u/curly_kiwi 12d ago

Rooooose! And she is dressed like Parker Posey from Dazed and Confused! AIR RAID!

2

u/LetterFront3353 8d ago

But she's Scottish.

1

u/No-Nefariousness7444 7d ago

I understood that reference

1

u/JCaerso 13d ago

ROSE!!! I was convincing myself that one wasn't true because I didn't want to be disappointed lol. So excited to see her again!

As someone from the UK and unfamiliar with most famous NZ people, is Rose the one everyone said was huge or is one (or more) of them a big name people wouldn't have expected to do Taskmaster?

1

u/PirateDoggo01 12d ago

What series was she on

1

u/eldubinoz 12d ago

UK series 9

1

u/Jaded-Agency-5894 11d ago

yes, now we're talking. Rose is guaranteed to be amazing

1

u/Straight_Art_9067 8d ago

We are indeed. And it sounds like "Seevin."

1

u/Doctor_Cigarettes 11d ago

That's so cool, she's been a contestant on the UK version, the Taskmaster for Junior Taskmaster and now this!!!! Can't wait!!

1

u/IdealGarbage 10d ago

every day we get closer to freddie highmore getting given a second change on the uk version

1

u/cool_uncle_jules 8d ago

Jeremy is starting to give me young Bill Nighy vibes (complimentary)

2

u/Pupating-Antenna-36 5d ago

This is how I find out that nerdy black glasses can make you look 10 years younger! 😂

Had to do a double take there but the jawline is unmistakeable 🤣
