TASKMASTER

Took like a six month break before finishing series 15, but that was a while ago now so I can't remember much. Frankie Boyle was a bit too subdued. I don't think it was one of the better series, but again I can't really remember.

Series 16 - Only one episode in but Sam Richardson and Lucy Beaumont is a good combination of craziness. Always liked Lucy but didn't like her husband (Jon Richardson) much so it's nice they got divorced! That was a bit nasty, sorry.

In September, Lucy broke her silence about the marriage split, revealing that one major issue was Jon's inability to admit when he was wrong, describing him as 'stubborn'.

That does confirm my bias though lol.

Good to see Julian Clary on it too.

I had no idea that Lucy and Jon had been divorced. The things you miss when you're on the other side of the pond...

How'd you get so far behind? Just finished the penultimate episode of Series 19 here.
 
I only watch it under certain conditions!
 
Now I'm curious as to what those certain conditions are...

Finally finished series 16 on my "only watch 17 minutes a week" schedule. The only correct way to watch it. Good series, as I predicted, with Lucy and Sam being great, but no weak links. I wonder if Americans thought Julian Clary was being too nasty to Alex? I thought it was fine since he has a well established comedy persona.

Series 17 line-up isn't great, only know 2 of the 5. Doesn't mean it won't be good. Could try to get up to 34 minutes a week so I can get to series 18 in 3 months rather than 6. Stay tuned.

Better fix something, because series 20 just finished.
 
I'll just need to avoid all the huge Taskmaster spoilers you see all over the internet.

Oh you mean like Ania Magliano
and her paternity test revealing Greg Davies is her father?
 
And Alex dying in the season 19 finale and being replaced by Jon Tickle, yes I already know.
 
And inspired choice for sure, can't wait to see how he does in series 20 when I get to it in 18 months!
