    “Do you have a favorite number?”
    “No.”
    This whole thing is a master class of two people who know the rules of improv and comedy and then shatter them all at once.

      @jamesrowden303 ​ @jamesrowden303 Okay bud, sure. Let's break it down, then.
      So, I suggested your previous reply bordered on unintelligible gibberish. This is because it presented arguments built on some assumptions that don't stand up to scrutiny.
      You claim these were your points:
      1. That TM's style of improv humor is *bad*.
      2. That Bridget's performance in this video was *good*.
      3. That you 'heavily inferred' these two points in an earlier reply.
      Now let's examine why that's gibberish.
      A. You probably meant *implied* (see: 3) when you used the word 'inferred.' Those are very different things and make the statement nonsense on its own, but we can give you a pass here since it's easy to figure out what you probably meant.
      B. Your previous reply, which you appear to believe was so laden with implication as to be obvious, in fact suggested the *opposite* of both numbers (1) and (2).
      Now let's take a closer look at (1) and (2) to see whether (B) is true and you actually posted the exact *opposite* of what you're now claiming you did.
      The original post and your reply:

      Looked more like someone refusing to improvise because they were rubbish at it.
      i. You replied to a 6-month old comment on a 2-year old video on the Taskmaster channel. Unless you are a total wad, you're only going to be watching this video in the first place if you're a fan of either TM or Bridget.
      ii. Your reply disagreed with the original comment, which praised the performance both comedians. 'Looks more like' is a comparative phrase which you then paired to calling one or both of the performances 'rubbish,' which is not a positive comparison.
      iii. Your reply is clearly reference Bridget's quoted response ("No."), since saying 'no' is one of the 'cardinal sins' of improv.
      iv. Since you're calling Bridget 'rubbish' at improv, we can reasonably reduce the two options from (i) and determine you are a fan of TM. This also proves you initially claimed Bridget's performance was *bad* (2; B).
      v. If you are a fan on TM, it doesn't follow that you think the imrpov style most commonly seen on the show is *bad*. (1; B)
      So, you clearly said one thing, then claimed you'd stated the opposite, then used an accusation of bad faith when I pointed out that your muddled language and blatantly contradictory statements had turned your last reply into little more than drunken hooting.
      Best of luck on whatever's going on with your brain, though, because it seems to be giving you some difficulties.👍

      ​@@Unagodd​ They don't claim Bridget Christie's performance was good nor claim they claimed that. They claim that the fact there are more elements to comedy is good, and they believe that bridgets performance here falls under zany without acknowledgement of the situation part and they probably don't know what non-sequitur means. I disagree with what they said, but to suggest they claimed at any point they thought her performance is good is just wrong. You both misread or misinterpreted each other's statements. Though theirs made less sense at first glance. What they said is also fair if they understood what they meant.
      It's possible I misunderstood something else too but yeah just rubs me the wrong way that you claim they claimed they said her performance was good and felt it should be addressed.

      I think that was helped by the fact that Alex told her when they were on 410 steps, then ran out of questions, then stood there waiting for her to say the line to end the task because he knew they'd gone over the count.
      If Alex had kept asking questions they could have been walking forever.

    each step was supposed to reflect a second from the start of the interview until the end. the solution being that as soon as the last question is asked, you thank Alex and end up very close to the required number.

    Bridget is completely and utterly the taskmaster throughout this season and this walk. She is talented. She let him completely exhaust himself, over act, and over react. She made him trip over his own deadpan, controlling persona.
    Her occasional smirk is the prize here. 7:04 she is clearly proud of herself for a split second. She's very, very good.

      Well if you are looking for a competition between two stupid women whose careers exist solely because they were in relationships with woke left wing male comedians who got their work from the BBC and Channel 4. This is why we need to defund the BBC, end the licence fee and sell Channel 4. So we don't subsidise untalented communists

    Bridget Christie seems to have made the same decision Rhodh Ghilbhert did and made their own game of the game.
    Rhod decided he would torment Greg because of their friendship, but Bridget confined her meta strategy to the Taskmaster universe itself, tormenting Alex in homage of the Taskmaster.

      Seems like Taskmaster is showcasing us possible Doctor Who actors. Johnny Vegas (wouldn't even need a script. Just give him a sonic screwdriver and let him run around on set). Charlotte Ritchie (in her dungarees and a carefree attitude), and now Bridget dressed up as Lee van Cleef.
      All would make excellent Doctors, I think.
