This may never happen but, being a fan of both Taskmaster and Doctor Who, I wonder if we'll ever see a main-character actor from the later take on a contestant spot on the former. Who do you think would be the best suited and why is it David Tennant?

Hi all, I'm really looking forward to the audiobook version of LAH/Jack Bernhardt's newest title. Does anyone have any idea where I can buy (legitimately) a copy here in the US? TIA!

... in 30 mins.

The viewer (me), must experience a whole season of Taskmaster that only takes a time-saving 30 mins to enjoy, that way I can watch lots of seasons and not have to spend too long watching a full season.

The viewers brain must not be damaged in any way after a viewing. You may not put the viewer into some sort of hellish virtual reality.

Your time starts now.

Tom Gleeson is feeling that for Aaron Chen, and I am so here for it.

Personally, I would be entirely in favour of him being on the show, I love his humour, I love his energy, I think he would fit right in.

My dormitory will be having a Christmas Party this week and I'm planning to add some tasks that can pull out some laughs from the players and the audience. What do you think is the best task to use for this? Your help is much appreciated.

This is your weekly thread to drop your links or stories that might not be relevant enough to get their own thread. Good examples include:

• Taskmaster alumni appearing elsewhere (TV shows, tour dates, etc.)
• Selfies and pictures featuring alumni and others on the show
• Sharing ideas about Taskmaster themed parties
• Random pics of things that remind you of Taskmaster (I'm looking at you, rubber duck.)
• Your (or someone else's) review of the Taskmaster Live Experience!
• You are looking for or selling tickets to the Taskmaster Live Experience.

A new post happens every Sunday at noon (UTC). Be sure to follow this post if you want to see updates!

Have fun!

Is it just my youtube or does the thumbnail for the new Junior Taskmaster spoil who wins the episode?

On my Youtube it's showing Kyra on stage with some of the prize task prizes, meaning she wins in the end.

i mean, it was right there - established brand first TM, and then add JR ... still recognizable as TM ...

but they went with JTM ... weird

I just finished watching Taskmaster Australia Season 3, and so far I've absolutely loved all three series, it's amazing they managed to be so consistent right out of the gate. It got me thinking - has any version of Taskmaster had 3 consecutive seasons that were at this level? I'm thinking maybe 7-8-9 of the UK series, or something in the first 5 Channel 4 years, but I think if I had to pick I'd go with the Aussie ones. Curious what other people think!

I’ve been very ashamed to ask but I can’t take it anymore. How do you guys get the cast member flares

In May 2024, Alex Horne attended a TV industry conference in Norway to present on and discuss the topic 'How to create an international comedy success'. Alex was interviewed by Ingrid Gjessing Linhave, who was a contestant on season 9 of Kongen Befaler. The video of the event is now available here: https://nordiskemediedager.no/sesjoner/kongen-befaler

If two go through from each heat, making ten semi finalists, and the top two qualify from each semi final, how will they decide who the fifth finalist will be?

The final of Junior Taskmaster will be the first time the participants will accurately be described as finalists. Whenever Greg does so in regular Taskmaster it's wrong as the 'finalists' take part in every episode and haven't competed to be in the last episode of the series

I think a lot of people like to think they'd absolutely smash it on Taskmaster but I know I'd be a (not as funny or endlessly charming because I'm not a professional comedian) Nish Kumar because I too am The Boy Who Shows The Most Enthusiasm In The Face Of An Overwhelming Lack of Ability.
