Whenever I finish an episode, I always tell myself, "Okay, that was the last one, I won't watch anymore so I don't burn through it all." Yeah, that doesn't work at all, lads.
It’s 4:30 in the morning here, my alarm will go off in 2 hours and I’m not sure if I’m even gonna try to get some sleep or just watch another episode or two and take a hot shower
I’ve burned through them all multiple times now. The great thing about Taskmaster is that it’s so good you that you still laugh during each rewatch. I’ve also noticed things and jokes I’d previously missed.
I am on my first full run of the actual series after watching a few dozen of the individual tasks in other videos. So much better to see the entire thing.
Joe reminds me of a guy whos the funny guy in the office and then one day takes the boss hostage with some scissors and ends up jumping out the 3rd story window.
Alex already said “He was so cross” so saying he was la cross would just be repeating what Alex said, with a la in front of it. I though he said it in reference to the la cross stick that when into the tree, but either way, I didn’t get it. It was not that great of a pun. (Unless I’m totally missing the point.)
Today I learned "blue" means "smutty" in the Northern UK. That's hard to find even on the internet, but Cassell's Dictionary of Slang confirms it. Thanks Google Books.
John's pineapple hiding was incredible, his technique was genuinely smart, at the start of the task I thought "hiding it in a LOT of places is bad, just gives him more chances of guessing a right place" but it turns out it was actually the best tactic, and all the diversions he did worked out perfectly.
I don’t think he knew they’d be graded based on incorrect guesses. Seemed like he figured the more spread out it is the easier it is to conceal which was also a good tactic
I just watched this and was about to write this post almost exactly! Only thing I was going to add was with a giant thumb, reminds me of someone comforting their beloved at a funeral!
Katherine is really so good at selling her results, unlike most contestants she actually tends to think about appealing to Greg and it tends to work out for her.
perhaps, but that method usually ends up being the least funny. The others are mainly going for comedic content and if it happens to please greg, it's an added bonus.
25:15 is one of my favorite bits in all the nine series of Taskmaster. Jon realized what happened, looked ad Greg who just beamed the cheekiest of grins, than back to Jon muttering some swear words to himself...
I made the mistake of watching the pineapple bit while in a college dining hall in the few minutes I had to eat dinner in between final exams. For the past fifteen minutes, I've been trying to stifle hysterical laughter AND not choke on my dinner, while a stodgy old professor and his students at the next table keep looking at me like I've had a mental breakdown. Thank you, I feel that I can now carry on!
For the pineapple bit, I think I would have pulled off 3-4 leaves and hidden them in random places, then just put the rest of the pineapple in a blatant place, like under my shirt. The big part is discovered quickly and then the rest of the pineapple is nearly impossible to guess the locations.
Binge watching the Task Master is helping me get through our coronavirus lock down. Everything is closed and we're encouraged to stay home. This is a life saver!
25:28 I love the exchange of "well that's interesting, well you [make up the tasks] all the time- well the taskmaster does it, you help him out I presume" and Alex just answering "if I'm lucky" because according to the Taskmaster team Alex makes up a large majority of the tasks lmao
You see Greg and Alex sitting side by side at 11:09. Then you see a reaction shot of Joe. The next time you see Greg and Alex at 11:13 they're now holding hands and the audience is coming down from a laugh seemingly stemmed by them holding hands. Greg even laughs to himself about it quickly. There is clearly a joke here that ended with them holding hands, and it was definitely cut out and I'm desperate to know what it was.
That must be when Joe deadpan says that he drank old pineapple juice and shat himself and Greg says "nice story". It's driving me crazy that it isn't in here because I remember it and it really made me laugh!

I love that with ZERO hesitation, ZERO communication, Greg and Alex responded to the comment of “theres definitely some sexual tension between you two” by going “oh it’s not *tension*” and “I don’t mind people seeing me tickle him!”. We love an In Sync iconic duo who laugh in the face of toxic masculinity
I'm pretty sure many of the duos who have embraced it had at least one lgbtq+ member. I don't think it's just a British thing, I think it's queer dudes being comfortable with their friends.
in bad mexican accent "Hey Greg. You don't know me, because I wear my disguise!" "I should wear a disguise as well, really." - "It's Richard Osman" - "Aaargh.." Gets me everytime!
I would feel bad if there was another person who got isolated with troll tasks and DIDN'T get any points for it, especially if he also had the taskmaster's name tattooed on them.
Josh did eventually get one point! I think he won the overall series too, just by one point over another two, so the comment section was all excited about how josh’s troll task got him his win.
I find it irritating that some contestants just get the chance for extra points and others are not ... Jon was able to get 4 points or less, while the others where only able to get 0 or 1 point ...
You're gonna have to feel bad quite a lot then as there's numerous solo tasks that didn't award any points. Some didn't have any on the line in the first place (Paul Chowdry's bouncy castle, Aisling Bea's pineapple photos), while others were disqualified or lost (Mark Watson's texts, Sally Phillips' fish puns)

During the DIY task Alex comes pretty close to finally losing it and even smiles while being ticked. 37:36 Alex laugh while being tickled then regains compose so quickly is haliois.
@@SS-ny8oe that's how I know about him. a while ago I saw a clip of someone flipping jimmy the bird and the next vid the same guy was wearing a dress like rachel. loved him ever since
Not this episode specifically, but this series as a whole has made me believe that modern British people used the term "innit" is the most common word in their lexicon.
Im here to report that if you watch all 10 series on youtube over the course of like 2 1/2 months, by the time you’re finished you CAN start over from the top and its just as enjoyable if only a little a more predictable
After watching 14 series and having improved my English understanding skills through it I am now rewatching from the beginning and I am a bit surprised how many jokes I didn’t get the first time and still found it hilarious and binge-watching worthy. Just the best show ever!
"I would have given them 5 full points each, but I'm not going to because Joe was a burden.... So I'm gonna say they all get four points." And this is why group projects are the worst possible school assignment.
ok.. they just started the last task, and when she picked up the bag.. I was just expecting her (or someone) to put the bag on the table and say 'done'.
At first, I was wondering why they didn't, that was my first thought. But the bag the potatoes were in would disqualify it. Unless the bag is made of potatoes
@@buttersmcfly9043 Oh I know, it wouldn't have been 'free standing' or 'using only these potato based products' but I still figured someone would've tried it to be funny. Like, someone in last place, or if they came up with some nonsense story about how they thought all burlap sacks were made from potatoes.
"Your potato tower must be built on the table, and will be measured from the tableTOP to the highest standing potato" I'm surprised that no one flipped the table upside down and built their tower on the bottom of the table.
I was going to say this. Basically how I look at literally every task on this show "Okay, time for the most djinn interpretation of those rules I can come up with."
@@rubyrayne8 Doesn't matter at all if the base is smaller. They're measuring from the tabletop, so if you flip the table, the tabletop is on the ground, and just a single potato placed on the base is practically guaranteed to be taller than anything built on an upright table, because now the entire height of the table is included in the measurement. You could even wait until the last few moments of the task to pull this off, so no one else would be able to copy you in time. It would obviously get some pushback, but if you argue the exact wording of the task well enough, I'd say it's worth trying.
Doc Brown: that's now! I'm talking about the Seventies! Greg: this is not a time travel intro. Doc Brown: then we must go back... Back... To the future!
One time pineapples were on sale for a dollar, so I bought 5 and ate 4 within an hour. The problem was the enzyme in it was really starting to affect me by the fourth, and somehow the protein layers around my mouth never recovered. Now, if I eat so much as 75% of a raw pineapple, I'm all but guaranteed to start bleeding fairly badly. I... I still do it.
@@bentlergerjamin2783 Though it says the tower should only use "potato based items" which rules out the sack. We could argue however whether an actual potato counts as "potato based".
TIL - Blue can mean dirty or filthy to people from Northern England. I wonder if that affects how commonly blue is someone's favorite color across the pond?
The first task involving Patatas in the tree reminds me of a story book called Stuck by Oliver Jeffers. Of a boy named Floyd who gets his kite stuck in a tree. In order to get the kite "unstuck" he throws a myriad of items into the tree including a cat named Mitch. Very funny story and very funny challenge!
They frequently jokingly grab the other person's hand while they are gesturing when reading the auto-queue. I'm guessing the exchange didn't make the edit, so they're left lovingly stroking hands without the preceding context. Good catch though, hadn't noticed that in my previous viewings.
“There are way more fleeces than I thought there would be.” 14:06 I really this quite interaction; Joe pointing at Jon and Jon pointing at Doc “Surprisingly, a lot of moisture in these bits.” “You’re a weird man.”
15:32 "and I'm the only girl... I can do courgette, i can do oranges and apple, but this..." "There is a page on that in my book". 20:46 "I just thought the more places i put pineapple the more places he'll think I've put pineapple .. and I've thought of that everyday since". 23:32 "I'm 40 years old you know". "Happy birthday". 25:17 Jon's realization. 26:41 "i think that covers the autocue "Jon reacts". 34:22 "i thought that you cut out how genuinely pissed off Joe was". 34:40 "I'll tell you what though... I like the tiki bar.. I'd like to sit there and maybe serve some tikies and stuff". 36:34 "I just don't eant to be a part of this". 36:46 "it's a good tickling station". 37:04 Message to taskmaster. 38:20 "I mean, you gaffa-ed me very early in the 30 min". 40:24 "I'm just gonna find the biggest potato".
Katherine told a story about a fella getting her to inflate herself like a balloon on 8 out of 10. The pineapple challenge shows she had practice, and reminds me of that.
Whenever I finish an episode, I always tell myself, "Okay, that was the last one, I won't watch anymore so I don't burn through it all." Yeah, that doesn't work at all, lads.
It’s 4:30 in the morning here, my alarm will go off in 2 hours and I’m not sure if I’m even gonna try to get some sleep or just watch another episode or two and take a hot shower
@@CrippleX89 Did you make the right choice?
I started rewatching earlier seasons before moving on to later ones because I didn't want them to be over. 😭

"Build the Taskmaster something."
"Right. Hostage video?"
"Hostage video."
Well, it is a hostage video, but also an… infomercial… for a… tickle tent?
I laughed much harder at the tickle station than at the tiki bar
Joe: "I'm forty years old"
Alex: "Happy birthday"
Alex is pretty damn quick, underratedly so
Agreed. I am ashamed to say I never heard of him before I first saw this show. But he's such a brilliant guy.
So funny
Literally my favourite comedian.
"There's a lot of sexual tension"
Alex: "tension? I'm quite happy"
Alex is the funniest one on the show by far. He's a genius
I think we’ve concluded that Doc is, in fact, a pineapple person.
Not an egg man or a fish man, but a pineapple man through and through
What's he think of pens and apples?
Pineapple man*
He's also a cat person
during the final task when someone in the crowd yells
"Come on Joe!"
and he lashes out "sHUT UP!!"
is top tier joe moment
Joe is my favorite person I've seen on this show yet
@@buttersmcfly9043 i know, series 2 is always gonna be my favorite. everyone played off of each other so well, especially joe

He somehow perfectly straddles the line of going along with whatever they ask without contributing anything of his own.
@@AllUpOns unless you have 80 pounds
Unless your name is Katherine Ryan. Than he will help lol
My favorite part of it is he makes almost all of the tasks.
@@addisonrichman9850my understanding is he's pretty much the brains behind the show, and Greg... pardon me; Lord Gregory is mostly the face.

Almost as good as series one with the bean, spaghettio, and rice counting bit…

And the frustrating thing is, in the end titles, their names are also alphabetical but then by their last name
Watching the pineapple task, knowing that Alex is the creator and writer of this show, just makes it so much more endearing.
I'm newly obsessed with this show. Never understood, or cared to understand, the concept before.😆😆
Britain, do y'all want to trade the Taskmaster for the Bachelor?
Sincerely, America
Not.A.Chance.Mate
It’s on the CW here in America now. So we don’t have to ask for the trade, but yeah the Bachelor needs to go.
@@gladtobeangry can we timeshare Greg and Alex?
@@WonderLady I guess you could get visiting rights...
unfortunately, both attempts to bring taskmaster to the US failed
Not this episode specifically, but this series as a whole has made me believe that modern British people used the term "innit" is the most common word in their lexicon.
This is the best show on TV, and good lord, hope it goes on for 100 series'. It's up there with Fry's QI imo
Im here to report that if you watch all 10 series on youtube over the course of like 2 1/2 months, by the time you’re finished you CAN start over from the top and its just as enjoyable if only a little a more predictable
After watching 14 series and having improved my English understanding skills through it I am now rewatching from the beginning and I am a bit surprised how many jokes I didn’t get the first time and still found it hilarious and binge-watching worthy. Just the best show ever!
“Slow and brutal” Jon’s athleticism in rescuing Patatas was visionary.
Greg was holding Alex's hand for like half the episode and it was adorable
"I would have given them 5 full points each, but I'm not going to because Joe was a burden.... So I'm gonna say they all get four points." And this is why group projects are the worst possible school assignment.
Doc is absolutely spot on, AWB are funky AF, and Feel no Fret is a damn cool album.
ok.. they just started the last task, and when she picked up the bag.. I was just expecting her (or someone) to put the bag on the table and say 'done'.
At first, I was wondering why they didn't, that was my first thought. But the bag the potatoes were in would disqualify it. Unless the bag is made of potatoes
@@buttersmcfly9043 Oh I know, it wouldn't have been 'free standing' or 'using only these potato based products' but I still figured someone would've tried it to be funny. Like, someone in last place, or if they came up with some nonsense story about how they thought all burlap sacks were made from potatoes.
I was surprised to, if I was on the show i probably would have done that myself if i didn't catch the potato part.
Getting the cat out of the tree, I was hoping someone would go to the shed and come back with just an axe.
14:35 Gregs face! If that was James Acaster instead of Joe, he would’ve gotten a stern talking to
"Your potato tower must be built on the table, and will be measured from the tableTOP to the highest standing potato"
I'm surprised that no one flipped the table upside down and built their tower on the bottom of the table.
I was going to say this. Basically how I look at literally every task on this show "Okay, time for the most djinn interpretation of those rules I can come up with."
It would be the same
The table didn’t have legs, it had one leg and the base was smaller than the top. So this doesn’t make sense.
@@rubyrayne8 Doesn't matter at all if the base is smaller. They're measuring from the tabletop, so if you flip the table, the tabletop is on the ground, and just a single potato placed on the base is practically guaranteed to be taller than anything built on an upright table, because now the entire height of the table is included in the measurement. You could even wait until the last few moments of the task to pull this off, so no one else would be able to copy you in time.
It would obviously get some pushback, but if you argue the exact wording of the task well enough, I'd say it's worth trying.
@@Spaztar uhh this a interesting strategy but i think it wouldn't be accepted since the tower must only have potato items
Still can’t get over Alex’s Jon, Richard’s Son quip. Was criminally un-noticed.
Doc Brown: that's now! I'm talking about the Seventies!
Greg: this is not a time travel intro.
Doc Brown: then we must go back... Back... To the future!
If I were Jon I'd have said "no" when Alex asked if he'd eaten the pineapple. Technically, he drank it
I mean but he was guessing places, not methods of hiding. The actual question he was asking was “is it inside of you?”
One time pineapples were on sale for a dollar, so I bought 5 and ate 4 within an hour.
The problem was the enzyme in it was really starting to affect me by the fourth, and somehow the protein layers around my mouth never recovered. Now, if I eat so much as 75% of a raw pineapple, I'm all but guaranteed to start bleeding fairly badly.
I...
I still do it.
harrowing tale to stumble upon in these comments - the curse of pineapple acid
I honestly thought Katherine was going to just stand her entire sack of potatoes on the table. That would have been a stroke of genius.
The task called for an unsupported tower though and a sack is definitely support
@@meerkatnip892 So are waffles. So are potatoes. So are tables. It's not very well defined what a "support" is.
@@bentlergerjamin2783 Though it says the tower should only use "potato based items" which rules out the sack. We could argue however whether an actual potato counts as "potato based".
Hidding the pinapple is the reason I started watching this show. I'm so glad I did.
Tip for anyone trying to tape sticks together - tape 2 sticks together at 2 different points instead of 1. It becomes much more rigid.
I couldn’t be more happy that John got them all right. I felt so bad lmao
Love this show! Watching from “across the pond” but I still anxiously await each release!
These uploads are becoming the highlight of my week! Thanks for making them available on RUclips!
40:26 I love when Joe says he’s just going to find the biggest potato. Adorable!
22:01
Alex' reaction was priceless 😂
25:18 Jon realizing they were tasks made by the other contestants and Greg's face.
TIL - Blue can mean dirty or filthy to people from Northern England. I wonder if that affects how commonly blue is someone's favorite color across the pond?
Oh... Oh wow, the whole "something blue" tradition for weddings really seems different now
Term "blue movie" was also pretty common in the US back in the day. I think it's more an older term than a term that is just used in Northern England.
It still means that here in the US.
@@RobertJoseph17 Does it really tho?
@@RobertJoseph17 Where is here? I've never heard anyone use blue to mean crass.
Please do a "best of the worst" series with Roisin, Joe, Paul, James, etc. Plsplspls
Yessssssssss, please! That would be so good!
lmao Katherine saying "yes, my lordship" to Greg when he asks her to read out the final task
I don't think Katherine Parkinson would have been able to even find Patatas😂😂😂😂
I haven't slept in 3 days, thank you Lord Greg
The first task involving Patatas in the tree reminds me of a story book called Stuck by Oliver Jeffers. Of a boy named Floyd who gets his kite stuck in a tree. In order to get the kite "unstuck" he throws a myriad of items into the tree including a cat named Mitch. Very funny story and very funny challenge!
11:20 Greg and Alex just holding hands is adorable
The fact that taskmaster is on RUclips and you get like 30 seconds of adverts max in the segments compared to the 3+ minutes on all4 is amazing
Glad youtube recommended this. Also am I the only one that thought about climbing the tree?
22:35 This looks screams "Is there pineapple on my person? I'll never tell 🤫🍍😏
11:14 why is he massaging Alex's hand?? lol
Haha that is really weird
Is he Bi?
That is cute though! If they are a couple
They frequently jokingly grab the other person's hand while they are gesturing when reading the auto-queue. I'm guessing the exchange didn't make the edit, so they're left lovingly stroking hands without the preceding context. Good catch though, hadn't noticed that in my previous viewings.
@@isforyourbusiness5688 No
The pineapple task makes me so happy. 😂 I also wish people would leave off complaining about free content.
“There are way more fleeces than I thought there would be.”
14:06 I really this quite interaction; Joe pointing at Jon and Jon pointing at Doc
“Surprisingly, a lot of moisture in these bits.”
“You’re a weird man.”
15:32 "and I'm the only girl... I can do courgette, i can do oranges and apple, but this..."
"There is a page on that in my book".
20:46 "I just thought the more places i put pineapple the more places he'll think I've put pineapple .. and I've thought of that everyday since".
23:32 "I'm 40 years old you know".
"Happy birthday".
25:17 Jon's realization.
26:41 "i think that covers the autocue "Jon reacts".
34:22 "i thought that you cut out how genuinely pissed off Joe was".
34:40 "I'll tell you what though... I like the tiki bar.. I'd like to sit there and maybe serve some tikies and stuff".
36:34 "I just don't eant to be a part of this".
36:46 "it's a good tickling station".
37:04 Message to taskmaster.
38:20 "I mean, you gaffa-ed me very early in the 30 min".
40:24 "I'm just gonna find the biggest potato".
Joe's disappointment at the tiki bar task was one of the most hilarious things ever... And so genuine!!!
Katherine Ryan's smuggling technique is impeccable
Katherine told a story about a fella getting her to inflate herself like a balloon on 8 out of 10. The pineapple challenge shows she had practice, and reminds me of that.
Hahah, I remember that episode. It also had Joe's greatest ever poem
@@sasikumarrajenthran4468 haha Capitan birds eye
Episode ? :)
That took me well over an hour to watch as I kept having to rewind bits and watch them again... So funny! Thanks for the upload!
