    One of my old friends was an assistant producer/researcher on the first series of this show. They were telling me that if Frank Skinner never appeared in season 1 then the show would never have garnered the views and popularity it has now. Getting Frank on the show was a stroke of genius. Lots of new comedians look up to Frank so when booking talent for the next few seasons was easy. All they had to do was name drop Frank and say that he'd been in the show then others would auto-think 'well, if Frank did it then it must be a highbrow show'. Hahaha. My friend was telling me that they wished they had thought of the 'Frank idea'.

      That's so true, Alex Horne must have been so happy when Frank Skinner said yes, as getting a big established name really helps a fledgling show, when there were no guarantees it would be successful or get a second series. I also think Tim Key played a big part, as with his hilarious cheating and special outfit for tasks he helped establish the formula.

    • @morganga

      Frank was also a likely candidate to accept because he has a keen understanding of the prize task format. He hosted a show "Room 101" which is essentially a chat show of prize tasks 😁. He understands the studio recording banter, Room-101 is a shark tank / dragons den, show-and-tell with final judgement, format.
      Frank was the "Taskmaster" of the show "Room 101"

    I hope this won't come across as rude, but have you considered maybe giving your videos more descriptive titles? I understand that this is probably just your style, and for people already familiar with your channel it's probably not a problem, but I genuinely didn't know what this is. I've been searching for new Taskmaster reactions recently, and I'm pretty sure this video showed up in the results before, but the title and thumbnail always made me assume it was something like a discussion video or an essay. I only realized it's actually a reaction today when I randomly hovered over it and a bit of it played. Including the words "Taskmaster Reaction" might be really helpful, as well as possibly the series and episode number, especially when the playlist has the videos in the wrong order. Other than that, really enjoying the content and liking your commentary style! I'm just a bit sad I haven't found it sooner, that's all.^^'

    It's funny you said Tim Keys was a psychopath. He played one when he was a guest on a comedy show written by one of his friends, Tom Basden, whom he met at Cambridge Footlights & with whom he collaborates on a lot of things. The comedy he was in was called Plebs & it's set in Ancient Rome. He's also godfather to Alex Horne's children. I recommend Plebs if you like silly adult humour.
    Taskmaster almost did get off the ground because they couldn't get any contestants to do the first series. Then Frank Skinner agreed &, because he's been a respected comedian & presenter here for 3 decades, others followed & it's now taken off worldwide.

    i've been binging all of taskmaster and holy shit it's my favourite! the comment section is right, you need to watch some of the stuff with noel fielding and james acaster! season 1 was very much growing pains, my favourite seasons are 4, 7, 8 and 11!

    British people pride ourself on British humour/wit, the problem is 90% of US aren't witty or funny at all and we're the proudest ones.

    So now you just need to watch all of task master and 8 out of 10 cats does countdown and big fat quiz and every other panel show and you will be caught up.

      @@squeakyelbows No, the one i saw was pre recorded bc of covid so we watched it in a movie theatre and watched the show exactly how it was aired and they recorded our laughter and applause, the staff were hilarious though and were close with Alex and Greg so we got some fun insider information and got to shame the one guy in the audience who had never seen any taskmaster
