    The Graham Norton show is the best talk show ever, because Graham gives the guests some alcohol, chills in his seat, and he lets them speak. He explained the secret to get the most embarrasing stories from celebrities: they don't care about the audience, or him, but they always want to be the one with the "best" story on the show and impress the other famous people sititng on the couch.

    Taskmaster is one of the most consistently fun shows and formats out there (and all on youtube!). Even if you don't know the contestants. Can't recommend it enough. Especially if you like React.
    That part with Joe Wilkinson is one of the most savage moments in the show no, recorded television, ever. Just hilarious.

    I love that one of the women hit the nail on the head as to why I often prefer British comedy - we do not spoonfeed jokes or have a character explain the punchline afterwards just to make sure everyone in the audience gets it. I also think a lot of the time, the punchlines are less predictable. I do like American comedy too, but I've noticed this key difference.

    Taskmaster did have a US version as well as a New Zealand version. The UK version is on season 15, NZ maybe 3?, and the US was a tragic disaster (as expected) and didn’t make it past the first season. The UK version is hilarious though.
