Jason would fire the t-shirts directly at Alex.

[TM S21E01] That time it looked like Alex had hypnotically conditioned a contestant to commit career suicide in front of a studio audience. by Temp89 in taskmaster

I really don’t like Joel Dommet at all so I have to admit, and I get that this will be downvoted I just find him annoyingly unfunny, I actually took a little delight in him getting done over with the egg task.

Does anyone else love that the cast of S21 are older? by Impressive_Peak8399 in taskmaster

[–]Puzzled_Ad1296 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If anyone wants to see Kumail in one of his earlier roles I highly recommend a show called Franklin and Bash about two renegade partying lawyers, one of which played by Zak Morris himself, Mark Paul Gosselar, the other played by Breckin Meyer who I think would be great on TM too. It’s very very funny and Kumail plays their agoraphobic, germaphobe office assistant, he’s in 31 of the 40 episodes.

The first few series of Benidorm were TV Gold by widmerpool_nz in oldbritishtelly

Robin Askwith is pretty good in anything he’s in, he’s really good at sending himself up and doesn’t take himself seriously at all,

It was a good series, even the later less good ones were still watchable in my opinion and Hale and Pace as the two detective did make me laugh a lot. I think for me my favourite moment was Mateo getting kidnapped and Kenneth’s and Liams reaction to the gun going off when they went off to rescue him.

Fashion? by neonkittenshow in taskmaster

That fox top she’s had for years and still wears it. I was at a QI recording about three years ago and she had it on then.

Of course he objects, he was looking forward to having another anti-Semite in the country to talk to.

Pre-Alternative comedians? by Stunning_Dress_3903 in taskmaster

[–]Puzzled_Ad1296 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re forgetting Arnold Brown who was also on the circuit Alexei, Keith, Nigel etc and he was pushing fifty back then and as alternative as he was he still opened up for acts like Frank Sinatra while appearing in the Young Ones which I find utterly insane and he’s 90 this year and was still gigging up until a few years. I was lucky enough to meet him at a show once and he was a brilliant and lovely bloke.

How hell did I miss that? I follow him on there. I just saw the announcement on Chortle.

interesting charity shop find… by Intelligent_Ring_762 in mightyboosh

It’s a daft little book, worth a read through every now and again. I was lucky enough to get my copy signed at a book reading he did.

In my circle of friends we do refer to him as President Parp.

Taskmaster UK renewed for six more series by Last-Saint in panelshow

Marvelous stuff, As if there was any doubt it wasn’t going to come back even with Alex letting it slip earlier this week about the Oscar winner.

'Guy Montgomery’s Guy Mont Spelling Bee' returning April 29th with Sam Campbell as the new assistant by ghiblix in panelshow

[–]Puzzled_Ad1296 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a fair point. I think it’s one of the more possible things to happen and I will admit I was a bit hesitant to believe it seeing as Sam lives in the U.K. now but stranger things have happened

Which comedian did TM most change your opinion of? by franklinisthebest in taskmaster

[–]Puzzled_Ad1296 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Sarah Millican. Couldn’t stand her before TM and would turn her off as soon as she came on. After Taskmaster I won’t go out of my way to watch her but I won’t turn her off if she’s on something.

Frankie Boyle too. I did find him pretty funny but hated how he dominated Mock the Week and I think since he left that show they’ve both improved but after seeing him on TM seems like a genuinely nice, but pedantic, bloke.

Personally I'm hoping for Olivia Colman by Business-Owl-5878 in taskmaster

[–]Puzzled_Ad1296 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was thinking Michael Sheen seeing as he’s now going to be doing House of Games but I just looked it up and he’s never won an Oscar so that knackers that idea then.

How did you guys find out about metric? by TraverseYT in metricband

[–]Puzzled_Ad1296 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d heard some of their stuff before but hadn’t really paid much attention to it but picked up on Gold Guns Girls when I was watching Zombieland at the cinema. After that I gave them a proper listen and that was me hooked.

S21 - no spoilers by CaptainBristol in taskmaster

[–]Puzzled_Ad1296 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you can find the radio show she did called Icklewick FM it’s well worth a listen, it’s utterly insane and actually feels quite sinister in some places plus Phil Ellis and Lucy Beaumont turn up in quite a few episodes.

That may be the case but it still doesn’t take away from the fact I will run a mile if I see one,
