I Am Inexplicably Moved.
We've torn through all the Taskmaster in existence, alas! I'll miss this ridiculous show, but at least there's more to come.
Trying to fill a net with water! What are you doing, Katherine?? How did it take you more than half a second to realise that this was not a viable water transportation strategy?
I love that, in the script for the acting task, Katherine's character actively refuses an offered hug from Alex, but in her performance she somehow contrived to hug Alex twice.
The 'complete five tasks, you can only move when the doors are moving' task isn't one of the best, but I do enjoy the fact that Alex is grinning all the way through, the little shit.
Even if the tenth series isn't my personal favourite, Katherine Parkinson might have my favourite relationship with Alex out of any contestant. I'll miss it! (I also feel she's probably the contestant who's closest to how I'd perform on Taskmaster.)
Series eleven! Lee and Mike's enemies-to-lovers argument is incredible.
I think Lee Mack is great on Would I Lie to You, but I wasn't sure what sort of attitude to expect from him on Taskmaster; I'm pleasantly surprised by how cheerfully he's throwing himself into it!
It's strange that I find Jamali's 'hurry the fuck up' attitude to Alex so outrageous when I'm absolutely fine with people physically abusing him. I've got no problem with Rhod stripping Alex down, tying him up and force-feeding him coffee through a funnel, but you can't be rude.
In the task at the end of s11 e4, the contestants have to look at Greg at all times, and he calls Jamali 'good boy' for complying. Jamali goes 'don't say that, that's horrifying', and I appreciate that Greg's response is to ramp up the homoeroticism without hesitation. 'Yeah, keep looking. I'm your destiny. Look at me.'
Also enjoyed this moment. It wasn't even part of a task.
I love that Greg gets just as invested as the contestants do when he's involved in the final task.
There are over a hundred episodes of Taskmaster, and somehow it still isn't enough. If I could trade episodes of other shows for more Taskmaster, there would be no other shows left.
(What if sacrificing episodes of other shows resulted in episodes of Taskmaster where the characters of that show competed? I'd love to see the Red Dwarf boys on Taskmaster. Rimmer accuses every task of discrimination for requiring a corporeal body. He might not be wrong, but he's still not going to get any points.)
