New Series of Taskmaster?

[TiffToff88]

The only thing I've seen Rose Mattafeo in was Jon Richardson's Ultimate Worrier and she was unbearably annoying. Trying too hard to he funny. I'm not a fan of Jo Brand, every joke she's ever made has either been about her weight or her useless husband.

 

The rest of the new lineup should be great though. Ed gamble is very funny, and Katy Wix was great in Ghosts and Not Going Out

New series September 4th

 

 

[The Bear]

Now that one I will definitely watch. I like all those involved. 

[Stadt]

That’s a quick turnaround from the last series

They're kicking the arse out of this show aren't they? Jumped the shark about 4 series ago.

That'll be a (intentionally ironic) task in an upcoming series

[David Guiza]

Always wondered what outfit I would go for on the tasks If I were miraculously on the show. No idea why but Aisling Bea's Irish outfit a few series back really annoyed me, and I can still see Phil's Wang whenever I blink from a couple series back. I'd want to go for something a little out there but probably end up with a Frank Skinner/Richard Osman style suit approach. 

 

Incidentally, I did get a point from Alex Horne during one of the Christmas tasks he set the public. So I'm about as successful on the show as Paul Chowdhry or Nish Kumar.

They do churn them out quickly now. Last few years have seen 2 series each I think.

Leicester shirt obviously.

[StanSP]

New series starts tonight ladies and gents. 

[The Horse's Mouth]

mad how many there are a year, based on line up I don't think this will be a popular one for me but I'll give it ago. Saying that, didnt have much expectation for last season and was pleasantly surprised. 

[syston_fox]

Well that was a shock.... wasn't expecting much from that line up but really enjoyed the first episode. (David Baddiel is pretty much as predicted though!) 

[egg_fried_rice]

Already prefer this lineup to the last one. Still pining for a repeat of series 7 though.

[Stadt]

Ed Gamble wins this series easily. Is Rose the first non-British contestant?

Katherine Ryan season 2.

Katherine Ryan season 2.

Ah yeah course. I don’t think he’d do it but I’d love to see Rich Hall on there.

[The Horse's Mouth]

yeah im gonna struggle with this one i think, probably be on par with the russell howard one

[Stadt]

The drawing task  

[RobHawk]

Really enjoying this series so far.

 

Guantanamo Bay 🤣

[StanSP]

This series much better than last couple.

[Langston]

I haven't watched the most recent episode but I think it's been the best since series 3 (so far). 1,2 and 3 are in a different league though.

I wonder if that will mean a bigger budget and therefore bigger name contestants?

Well you'd certainly hope it'll give them a bigger budget. Doubt they'll mess with it too much though, I mean channel 4 didn't mess with the Bake Off format when they got that, and they seem to be doing ok with it. They are buying it for a reason, the show works as it is.
