r/taskmaster

As in the title.

Taskmaster tasks create all sorts of visuals, from the comical to the pathetic to the heroic.

Which ones, however, make the worst visuals? Make you cringe or fail to look away or even gag?

For me, it's got to be Daisy and Richard's watermelon-eating task. They look like two actors in a film about the downfall of human society that isn't allowed to show sex.

But that's just me.

For those not familiar with Nina, she's an awesome ventriloquist and comedian whereby she does the voices and faces of the people on stage with her. This is probably the best introduction to her.

Look, I’ll be honest. When the lineup dropped, my brain recognized exactly two faces: Richard Ayoade and Matt Lucas. Standard stuff.But I know how this show works. By episode three, I will be absolutely, feral-ly obsessed with the other three. I don’t know who you are yet, but you are about to become my entire personality for the next ten weeks.You cannot stop me. You have no say in the matter. I am fully prepared to defend your honor in the episode discussion threads over a disputed potato throw.Get ready to be loved, strangers. It is happening.

It looks like I'm not the first person to suggest it, but based on the recent survey that went out, I'm bringing back up the idea.

Tournament of Cheaters!

I did flesh out the idea a bit as well for how it might work...

Get the most egregious, intentional cheaters (Dave Gorman, Sian Gibson, Munya Chawawa, etc.)

At the beginning of filming, give them all a task to cheat as much as possible.

Film tasks

Just before studio shoot, have them privately write down all the ways they cheated.

Film studio shoot as normal, revealing cheating they caught along the way.

After live task, have them add to their list if they cheated during that.

After reviewing live task and points are awarded, everyone cracks their confessions. They lose points for each time they got caught cheatijg and gain points for each time they got away with it.

Winner is crowned Champion of Cheaters!

Can you IMAGINE he'd be perfect

I've finally caught up on all episodes and I'm sure this exists somewhere already but I'd love for this to be a thread of all Easter Eggs placed throughout the series. Add your own but I'm thinking asking the lines of the switch from series to season following mantzoukas and sam Campbell's gray to color outfit. I'm positive there's numerous and excited to see what I've missed

Anyone else super excited about this nugget from the latest Stop Podcasting Yourself pod with Allie Entwistle? It sounds like a Taskmaster Canada (yes Canada, English speaking version) is in the works!

Delighted to see i basically have the same jokes as the lads who predicted Howie Mendel on

(BTW if you are not listening to SPY pod then you really should)

(Also Dave if you read this, your opinion about TM having too many versions is invalid. Yes i will fight you)

I know this website looks dodgy as hell but is usually right and often a good first port of call, at least for Taskmaster!

Vis-a-vis Urzila Carlson slated to be on Taskmaster AU, the scenario in the title struck me while driving and made me chuckle.

Stomester or Kongen Befaler would be hilarious for an episode.
