Do you watch any of the other Taskmaster versions?

We watch the UK one (of course), plus the NZ one in my house (their second series is brilliant). I tried the US one but I'm not sure I even got through the first episode.

I've heard that the Norwegian (or was it the Danish?) Taskmaster was good but I haven't tried yet. There's quite a few to chose from now, too many for me to try myself.

The banter felt more like straight bullying

That just seems so quintessentially Aussie to me.

I hope we aren't seen that way :( I'd like to beleive that we are capable of being closer to the UK level of friendly banter (its equally possible i am misinterpreting the UK banter as being more friendly than it is). I think its just season 1 jitters, amd possibly some poor casting?

I am watching season 9 UK and it just feels like there is no single person who is constantly the butt of the joke, even Greg is made fun of fairly regularly.
