I’m not completely back to watching “real” television yet. It often takes me awhile to get over the Christmas Crush. Since this is the last weekend before my daughter goes back to college, we have spent quite a bit of time watching Taskmaster on YouTube. Never heard of it? Let me try to explain.

Taskmaster is a British game show that has expanded to other countries around the world. The basic premise is the Taskmaster (Greg Davies in the original British version) sends his Assistant (Alex Horne) to give a panel of five comedians tasks to complete. The comedians are then given points based on how well they completed said tasks: 5 for the best, 1 for the worst. At the end of the season, the comedian with the most points wins a golden trophy in the shape of the Taskmaster’s head.

If you haven’t watched the show before, I highly recommend it. I, personally, enjoy the original British version. My daughter likes the Australian version. And we both laughed very hard at the New Zealand version. There are versions from other countries. Take some time to go through the playlist on the official Taskmaster YouTube channel and find your favorite version. Comment below what your favorite one is!
