    Comedy gold

    Such a simple concept, executed flawlessly! Greg is a perfect host, Alex is a pure genius for coming up with everything, brilliant choice of contestants.

    The FUNNIEST show ever!

    And I just happened to stumble upon it randomly never heard of it before. I saw the USA version but the UK version is side splitting hilarious.

    One of the Funniest Shows on British TV

    There is something special about the humor of Taskmaster. It is a funny combination of the subtle remarks of the comedians and the overtly absurd tasks they have to complete. Although the first few series are great, they still hadn't found that balance which series 4/5 onward nails. Greg Davies and Alex Horne's comedic chemistry is truly phenomenal. Also the music and editing is surprisingly good too.

    10/10.

    You have 45 minutes to spare and haven't laughed in years. Make me laugh little Alex Horn.

    And laugh I did.
