Taskmaster NZ

Looks like the Kiwi version of Taskmaster started a few weeks ago.

It very closely follows the format of the UK version, but with New Zealand comics.

I've only watched the first episode so far, but I'm really enjoying it. Laughed a lot.

The bloke in the Alex role is good. The bloke in the Greg role is a bit stiff. Not much chemistry there yet.

The contestants, completely unfamiliar to me, have distinct characters that come across quite quickly.

The tasks are fun.

Looks like you have to be in NZ to watch it on the official site, but I stumbled across it on YouTube.

Definitely worth a shot, especially if you're a fan of the original.

Gave it five minutes - he's no Greg and put me off when he showed his gold "hid" trophy.

It deserves more than that. You haven't even got to the tasks involving the shid yet.
