Woah that's crazy! A while back I watched every single task master I could find on youtube. I liked it up until the last couple seasons where I felt it became too scripted... I've never met someone else who's seen it
Same here. Honestly the first close to 10 seasons were amazing, but I think they started to run out of really great comedians, and like you mentioned the spontaneity that made it so amazing when it was new started to cannibalize itself with new contestants playing things up to match a comedy formula.
I guess all comedians try to be funny, but the latest series struck me as much less genuine and fun.
New Zealand Taskmaster is also worth it if you haven't seen it yet
Absolutely. Season 2 of NZ is probably my favourite of all (including UK)
