Taskmaster

[Narkalui]

Does anyone else watch this show? I think it's the funniest, stupidest programme I've ever seen and when each series ends I feel sad.

In fact, I watch all the episodes online on UKTV Play a week ahead of broadcast and I feel sad at the end of each episode...

I watch this when I can as the gf doesn’t like it. Very funny.

 

[Narkalui]

Not just me then

An hour or two ago, I was watching a recording of last night's episode (as I was at a concert last night**). As ever with episodes of this weird show, it was very silly and very funny.


** - Mozart's Overture to The Magic Flute, Bruch's Violin Concerto No.1 and Rachmaninov's Symphony No.2.

Until a few days ago I had never watched it. Now it’s my new favourite viewing of any kind.

Brilliantly stupid, stupidly brilliant. Don’t care about any apparently inferior US version, obviously.

I began watching it during the lockdowns. Still haven't caught up with the earlier seasons (some were shorter.)

Brilliantly stupid, stupidly brilliant.

That says it all.

And now I’m going to attempt watching every single episode, starting with this

I’ve just completed Series 7.

So far during my viewing, I have on three occasions had to pause the viewing due to laughing enough to possibly require medical assistance.

I think Taskmaster might take a place in my list of all time favourite series
