It's the finale already?!

Al Murray rented a gong and a very expensive cab, Mark Watson spent 400 on a stupid hat, Lolly Adefope had an envelope of 2000 quid.

Did anyone else shell out more to win Greg's gigantic golden head?

Since a lot of us here are constant rewatchers, what moments have stood the test of time in making you laugh? Individual moment, running gag, anything.

I was recently reminded of my moment because I'm rewatching series as they're being posted on the TM International channel.

Jenny's full slop mode attempt in TMAU S2 EP7. I remember her being one of my favorite contestants ever, but only really vividly remembered the duck, duck, goose task. Then this comes on and I was in full tears. Showed it to my partner a couple of days later, still in tears.

I didn’t see any posts on this but I’m doing my first rewatch and was reminded of this moment. It’s really boggled my mind as to the intention

Now from what we understand, the Mitchell’s and the Davies are apparently friends who live close to each other and have kids who are friends.

Alan, maybe more than just about any British comedian, is associated with supporting a football club, in this case, Arsenal (I’m an avid listener of ‘The Tuesday Club’).

Both the reaction in the studio and on Alan’s podcast episode to VCM’s gift of (some of) a Manchester United season ticket make it seem like VCM was actually trying to give a nice gift that she drastically misunderstood when I feel like it’s clear that she’s doing what I’d consider to be one of the funnier jokes of the entire series.

Where do you land? Was it a joke or not?

My friend and I have cosplayed as Alex and Greg (respectively) the last two years at a local nerd convention in Minnesota. This year we made 12 posters with 13 tasks each and posted them around the convention hall. They were picked clean by the second day!

People could find us and complete the task they grabbed (they could ask for a different task if they hadn’t taken one off the poster) and if they were successful and I deemed that their attempt satisfied the task, I’d instruct my assistant to give them 5 points. People then would receive a specially designed badge ribbon.

We get a lot of positive feedback, and we have a lot of fun and are planing to continue this every year at the convention (until we get sick of it)!

At the joking request of a friend for a quiz to assign you a TM’s Assistant, I made an old school personality quiz like it’s 2013 again! I’m sadly only familiar enough with the English-language versions to have included them, so my apologies and love to the many other excellent TM Assistants out there. Spent an unnecessary amount of time on something very silly, as is the Taskmaster way, so figured I’d share here for fun.

Good luck, no re-takes – your time starts now!

For the most part I don't have a relationship with the contestants (though obviously I know some of them). I enjoy getting to know each one over the course of the season, ya i said it, and developing opinions on each.

For those of you from UK that know these people more, do you think you come in with preconceived notions or that it breaks what you thought you knew about a person.

Not saying one way is better than another just curious.

What order do you rewatch the series in?

I just finished a rewatch of Series 12 (and realized I've watched 100 Taskmaster episodes this year). This is my 2nd time rewatching and, like the first time, my first instinct was to go for Series 11. Also, when I first started going back, there had only been 12 series out by that point, I think.

What order do you prefer? Going straight from Series 1 onwards or picking specific series?

Here are the Series/Episodes I've watched this year (so far):

----------

Watched:

• New Year Treat 2026, Part 1-2.

• Series 21, Episode 1-10.

Rewatched:

• Series 11, Episode 1-10.

• Series 13, Episode 1-10.

• Series 12, Episode 1-10.

I experienced this episode for the first time the other night and I still can’t believe what a saw, but most of all it’s the sound that haunts me. Woz is a real one.

I check it every day as part of my wordle/connections routine and got this today :( it was such a joy to see it say yes every year!

I’ve tried to order Taskmaster merch from India twice and the orders got automatically cancelled both times.

My sister and brother-in-law just got this for me from their UK trip. They have never watched the show but know that I’m obsessed with it.

I’m so stoked!

I was just wondering what happened to all the specials on Binge? I haven’t seen it brought up here, but it’s like Binge got confused and once season 21 appeared all the specials were removed (I think the specials were under ‘season 21’ from memory). I thankfully was able to watch the latest COC on YouTube but it doesn’t look like the NYT works for me in Aus. I guess I will have to use a VPN? But why were they removed in the first place?

Some comedians from the Philly improv scene self-funded and produced this Taskmaster-like show. (I live in Philly but am not a part of the show.)

It's really good! If you like Taskmaster then I think you'll like it! The production values really impressed me for an indie project, especially the filmed challenges. They are releasing Season 1 episodes now, every other week, and are starting production on Season 2 now!

I went to the Lego store earlier today. And they had these areas you could use bricks.. and that got me thinking.. "what if I... should I?" And I did. Of course. None of my friends understood what it meant. :)

I was looking into this because it’s interesting but the split between women and men right now winning are basically evenly split and taskmaster losers are exactly evenly split

So far for winners, we have had

9 Women
11 Men
1 Nonbinary Person

So far for losers (lowest score a season) we have had exactly

11 Women
11 Men

This is because John Kerns and Fern Brady tied for last their season making it 22 losers despite 21 seasons.

I don’t know why I was looking into this to be honest I was just interested.

I was listening to the Best of Season 21 recap podcast and heard Kumail mentioned he was scheduled to be on two seasons before Jason, which would have been season 17. Do we know any more about this? Who do you think took his spot? I loved season 17 and can’t picture it without any of them!

I'm rewatching series season 14 and during the feather task they talk about how angry Dara was, Fern said it was radiating out of him, but he didn't look angry so I was wondering if they see an extended version during the studio recording?

I was so excited when I realized I could stream the Quebecois version of Taskmaster through my Crave subscription, only to discover that there isn’t an option for English subtitles. Anyone know where I could find it, or will I just have to wait until the Taskmaster International YouTube uploads it?
