Taskmaster Series 10 just wrapped up in the UK about a week ago. The last episode of the first series of the New Zealand version just aired a couple of days ago. I found both highly entertaining.
The game show was created by Alex Horne for a show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival back in 2010. It made it to TV in 2015 and there have been 2 series each year since. It started on Dave but it's moved to Channel 4 for the current series. There's no studio audience this time and that's a bit strange but it works well enough.
Greg Davies is the Taskmaster and the poor saps who are jumping through Greg's hoops are Daisy May Cooper, Johnny Vegas, Richard Herring, Katherine Parkinson and Mawaan Rizwan. You can find out who won by clicking the link to the YouTube channel that's hosting them right now. They could disappear anytime so be warned.
You can watch series 1 through 7 on this YouTube channel. It's just dropped the first EP of series 8 so that's on the way. Perhaps S9 will follow soon. Hopefully you'll get a laugh or two. I know I did.
