    Quirky, but good fun...

    It is a bit odd, but I really enjoyed watching it. In some ways it reminds me of the radio 4 comedies I've always loved - quirky, wordplay with double entendre and meaning, sometimes a bit awkward. It's like comfort food or spending time with a good friend - easy to watch, friendly, enjoyable.

    Some of the plot is perhaps a little rough around the edges, but that is more than compensated for by the fun music videos of Horne Section songs and interactions between the characters. I love that it is set in the taskmaster universe, definitely helps set the scene. It's also fun to try and spot Easter eggs that link to taskmaster and other things Alex had done (such as no more jockeys).

    I enjoyed it so much that I'm on my second watch through, still trying to find those ducks that Alex hinted were hidden in every episode!

    Fun and light-hearted

    I watched the show as someone that is a Taskmaster fan and quite familiar with Ale'x work, so I wasn't surprised that the concept and the style of the show would work for me but to be honest I was a bit worried that this would be a too niche show for those that don't follow Horne's work close enough to get all the easter eggs and inside jokes.

    On a rewatch with a friend that was not familiar with the band I could see that yes if you are a fan you will enjoy it a lot more, but at the end of the series my friend was interested to know more about the band. She really enjoyed the songs and how light it was. And I agree, in a world that everything has to have a plot twist, a dense plot just for the sake of trying to be the center of attention on Twitter this show is a gem! It is fun for the sake of being fun.

    My only problem with the show was that I wanted more from the band and I hope that if they get a second series they get more attention and please guys do the classics!

    Tim Key and Greg were amazing on it, Desiree Burch was quite good too!

    If you are a fan of Horne or the band you are in for a treat, if you are not you might be one of us by the end of the series.

    It's just fun!

    What I love about The Horne Section is that there are ordinary people out there who are not afraid to have silly fun with their friends and share that with us! I could not stop laughing! I wish, as adults, we were all this free to enjoy ourselves. Reviewers here are unhappy because they would like to see what they expect to see - a storyline that makes sense or goes somewhere or something - but all that stuff is beside the point. They're so innovative and joyousI They make me happy.

    If you like Flight of the Concords or Shooting Stars, or Alex's 'banter' section at the beginning of Taskmaster, this is for you.

    I hope in the second season we get more screen time with each of the band members and see more of their improvisation in the studio. I'm so glad musical comedy has been allowed back on the telly.

    Smart, snappy, easter-egg filled fun

    I have to admit, I was a bit nervous about what this show would be like but I was so incredibly pleasantly surprised. Alex Horne's character (or "character") is funny, relatable and immensely likeable (even at his most infuriating); the guest stars like Greg Davies, Desiree Burch and Tim Key feel like gifts to Taskmaster fans worldwide; and I was delighted by all the little references and surreal moments (Biff Chippington in the credits of the show within the show spun off from the other show?? Amazing).

    Every Taskmaster fan absolutely owes it to themselves to learn more about the genius that is Alex Horne by giving this show a watch. And people who've never watched Taskmaster absolutely owe it to themselves to watch both!!

    super duper fun! perfect silly humour!

    The taskmaster cinematic universe continues!!

    This show is actually pretty fun! I had no idea what i was going into apart from it was about the band and was a comedy show and was pleasantly surprised !

    It mainly is a show, about a show and Alex and his crew writing really random but hilarious music. Also, props to the band, they're really talented musicians and honestly they all play really hilarious characters!

    The humour is quite niche, filled with purposefully cringy jokes and hilarious songs about peas and camels; Exactly what you'd expect from Alex Horne! I loved the random cameos too, Martin kemp was great and I loved Dr Ranj's segment about his car haha!

    It's not everyone's kind of humour but if you enjoy Alex's segments on taskmaster then you'll love this! Awkward humour at its best!
