Taskmaster NZ

Season 1: At the beginning of the series, I wasn't too impressed - I thought Jeremy Wells didn't get into his role enough, the contestants were weak and the assistant was a bit wooden in his delivery. However by episode 4 or 5, it began to click, with hilarious moments emanating from the contestants' personalities and responses to some genuinely brilliant tasks! Paul Williams as the little Alex Horne stand in became the best part of the show and Jeremy Wells as the Taskmaster was starting to form. Episodes 6 to 10 all consist of the best episodes of Taskmaster fullstop - including the UK original! It really started to give the original Taskmaster series 10 a run for its money!

Season 2 continues to excel in the task department and the new cast has a seemingly lovely rapport with each other! Little Paul is still an absolute delight, and while Jeremy still continues to be possibly the only weak link of the series, season 2 is definitely a step in the right direction.

I went in a bit skeptical, I love TM UK, but I just finished season one of NZ, and I love it, I'm hooked, I wish all of these comedians were my friend! Sooooo funny!

I like the NZ sense of humour. A bit dry and a bit sarcastic, combined with their accent (you can win hid) made this a great show. A few flat moments but mainly just brilliantly funny

I have never laughed so consistently at every episode of a season of Taskmaster as I have of season 2 of TMNZ. I'm not from NZ so I wasn't familiar with any of the people going into it but they all won me over quite easily. So many memorable and hilarious moments of absolute chaos. It is a very rare and beautiful thing for all five contestants in a series to be equally unpredictable and chaotic. Also Paul Williams as the Taskmaster assistant is absolutely delightful!

I have no idea what algorithm I stumbled onto as a New Yorker that led me to finding this random show from New Zealand, but this has been one of the best things on the internet in awhile. Everything is just so much fun, and everyone is excited to do these stupid little tasks and it's just such a great time. I'm only on season 3 and so far my favorites have been Angela and Chris. Pretty much anyone who shows Paul some love is the best in my book. I don't know if I want to start watching a different version of the show. I fell in love with the accents and I think that's part of what I find so charming about it. I And of course, nobody can replace Paul <3.
