I started watching Taskmaster right around March 2020 when everything got shut down and we all got to chill at home for a bit. I have super fond memories of the early seasons because I would binge through them while staying with my parents and sister in northeast Georgia. Glad to see you’re enjoying it too :)
I have been on the taskmaster grind for a bit now. This show is fantastic. And it's really funny to come across certain British comedians I know in those super early seasons. Looking at you Nish and Romesh!
"Mo's an athlete, but I doubt he's that funny." - Stanz, 2023, completely forgetting that the object of the show isn't to be funny, but to win the games.
We're very lucky that the show is uploaded fully on youtube officially because in Ireland we watch all the same shows on the tv as the UK does, however they block us from watching them online because we're not in the UK. Literally part of our country is, and that part is allowed to watch the show online. There's also times where they buy the streaming rights of Irish tv shows in order to prevent irish people from watching them. It's messed up.
"Literally part of our country is" No part of your country is, at all. Stop trying to be colonial in the modern era - if they decide in the future to join Ireland, and Ireland accepts, then they will be part of your country. They have decided previously not to be, that's the end of it unless that changes.
I started watching taskmaster a bit more than a year now and I have been following it ever since. To me it's so special because I had some rough patches in 2021 and I honestly think that britcoms are the reason I'm still here.
Dude. I've been watching this since 2019. Taskmaster is choice. I envy anyone who has so many seasons to watch ahead of them. Check out Would I Lie to You? as well.
Omg I literally just found this show a few days ago PERFECT TIMING! I've honestly been binge watching it since I found it and it's SO GOOD. We need more game shows like this
After all of the jokes about her on 8 out of 10 Cats does Countdown, I wasn’t expecting that to be what Carol Vorderman to look like. Another show Stanz should watch.
Glad to see Stanz back on Taskmaster! I was too late to watch you watch the rest of the series and since you couldn't put most of them on youtube those vods are all lost to time and i could never watch them.
Love the videos! When you're telling stories ( like the Vegas story at 6:46 ) looking into the camera makes it much more engaging. Ignore this if you want tho, I'm mediocre at public speaking hahaha
Every time I click a Stanz Taskmaster video I have a small hope that Stanz will see the British Treasure that is James Acaster. Every time I am disappointed. Great video though! Thanks for watching our weird TV shows!
As a British person, it's so funny that Americans who watch it seem to think the prizes are important outside of getting some laughs 😂 same goes for caring a lot about the score
As far as I understand Phoenetic name means you pronounce it how it's said rather than how it's spelled. The example I saw was Baranowski is pronounced Ba-ra-nof-ski
The Swedish "bäst i test" is the better version imo, although my friends who likes the original (British ver.) thinks the Norwegian one is better (it's more similar to the British ver. Than the Swedish one).
Surprised me how good it is, after the awful American one I though other adaptations would be shit but the kiwis completely nailed the tone and really made it their own.
not yet, he's still catching up with the UK one he's currently on series 13. He had a break for a long time because Channel4 has been taking down his yt videos
Taskmaster is a great show! I stumbled across it back when it was airing its 3nd season and later on was delighted to see that theyre among one of the only shows that somehow wrangles the rights to upload old & new whole series onto youtube! Such a creative and unique watch, im glad it seemed to really cement itself into british tv the way it has.
