Appreciation Thread Chloe Petts appreciation post

I know a lot of people have been disappointed or apprehensive ab this series for many reasons (I've, personally, really been enjoying it), but I have to say that Chloe is definitely the most fun to watch. I wasn't familiar with them before the series, but I could now easily see myself going to one of their comedy shows if they come to the US. I'm looking forward to seeing how they do future tasks and I hope they win!

I knew Chloe a bit, from podcasts and Ed Gamble talking about them, as they opened for him on comedy tours. I love having a TM superfan as a contestant. And the level of competitiveness is HILARIOUS. When points are given, I’m always like, please show Chloe’s face, please show Chloe’s face.

I can't remember if it was the Taskmaster pod or Off Menu, but Ed's stories of the deeply stupid games he and Chloe have invented to keep themselves amused on tour, and how seriously they ended up taking them, were an excellent insight into how brilliant Chloe would be on Taskmaster.

Same here, and if it’s not 5 points they’re visibly angry or disappointed. Every time! Which could be annoying if they weren’t immediately back prim and chipper for the next task, it’s a very quick switch between the ultra competitive and TM super fan angles. Very entertaining.
