i finished up UK taskmaster (and AU) some time back and have only started checking out the new zealand version. as of this current post i'm going through season 2 and enjoying it so much more than season 1 (which i found quite weak and didn't enjoy it so much).
it's a shame there's no official channel posting up some of the tasks but i'm finding a few favourite clips online:
- "eat the grape" ➚ - this was a rollercoaster from start to finish with poor david losing his mind.
- "create a diss track about the other team" ➚ - this task was wild to watch.
gonna note down the seasons here again for fun, new zealand edition:
(used TaskMaster.Info ➚ for reference)
- fav contestents: Brynley Stent
- fav tasks: dramatically smash the vase / reassemble the vase, reassemble a keyboard / type a message to the taskmaster, make the best desert
- fav contestents: David Correos, Guy Montgomery, Laura Daniel
- fav tasks: knock over all the pins without leaving the caravan, float the brussels sprout down from the balcony, squirt sunscreen the furthest, get the swiss ball into the kayak, join the video chat dressed as Abe Lincoln, eat the grape
- fav contestents: Chris Parker, Josh Thomson
- fav tasks: drive 11 laps and obey all the rules, pat Paul on the back, leave the room / spot the difference, the presidential blockbuster
you know, may as well cover the australian ones here too! especially with the new season 4 coming around the corner.
- "unholy fists of the very aggrieved scout" ➚ - i really liked the idea of everyone collaborating together on a single task and it was a joy to watch.
- "go as low as you can go" ➚ - i think this might have been one of the first clips i saw of the australian version and i knew i needed to try and watch that series as well. bless jenny and tom, i adore them both.
and the australian edition:
(used TaskMaster.Info ➚ for reference)
- fav contestents: Nina Oyama
- fav tasks: sink the bowling ball, deliver 26 roses to Tom's vase
- fav contestents: Anne Edmonds, Jenny Tian, Lloyd Langford
- fav tasks: fill your basket with hot chips, find Tom, avoid being papped by Tom, collaborate on a short action film
- fav contestents: Rhys Nicholson
