what are the qualifiers (level of fame / type of comedy) for a comedian to be on Taskmaster?
hi! new fan of the show from Canada. my favourite part of this has been discovering and enjoying so many new comedians. ive gone through so many series now and there honestly hasnt been one person thats a total dud, to me, at least.
i feel like ive never seen a show that has such faultless casting. which leads to my question (which im having trouble phrasing): what makes a comedian fit for Taskmaster? do they have to have a certain level of fame and do they have to have a specific type of comedy, or does the show cast anyone who works in the genre? are they purposely unpredictable?
i see a lot of cast prediction + wishlist threads on here but not sure how realistic they are. for example, i see a lot of love / hope / predictions for YouTube comedians / podcasters, but i dont necessarily get the vibe that the show casts their net in that direction?
thanks and sorry if this is such a complicated question!
