Taskmaster: a funny, most unexpected comedy
Dave's Taskmaster is ace at everything but balanced representation. Sort that, and it could be one of the most enjoyable shows on TV...
Wesley Mead, Den Of Geek, 26th October 20165 questionable moments from Taskmaster series 2
Oh boy, Taskmaster's second series was a ride to say the least, and an enjoyable one at that! Looking back, here's our five most questionable moments from the show.
Callum Moorin, The Angry Microwave, 2nd August 2016In the last in the series of Taskmaster, Greg Davies's taskees have all to play for, with an overall series winner set to be crowned out of contestants Doc Brown, Jon Richardson, Katherine Ryan, Joe Wilkinson and Richard Osman. Among this week's tasks are transporting a range of groceries over a small river and into a shopping trolley, and making a stop-motion film starring a potato. To the victor, the spoils, which includes a golden bust of Davies's head.

The final episode in this series witnesses the Taskmaster trophy finally presented, and a horror film starring, yes, a potato.

In this week's episode of Taskmaster we see artistic silhouettes, a huge number of Calippos, and the return of old friends.
Ian Wolf, On The Box, 5th July 2016Taskmaster: series two - episode 2 review
On this week's episode of the comedy challenge show, we watch some disturbing music videos, horrible culinary habits, and learn that Joe Wilkinson looks like a battered toaster.
Ian Wolf, On The Box, 28th June 2016A new series of the show in which Greg Davies sets a series of increasingly irritating tasks for famous comedians, this week comprising Jon Richardson, Katherine Ryan, Joe Wilkinson, Doc Brown and Richard Osman. At stake and up for grabs is the most important document each comedian owns. In the case of Joe Wilkinson, it's his marriage certificate, so nothing trivial. The biggest take-home from this is that lateral thinking is clearly not a comic's forte.

Taskmaster is great at displaying people's laterial thinking.
Ian Wolf, On The Box, 21st June 2016TV review: Taskmaster, Dave
It is no surprise that comedians are ruthlessly competitive. What I didn't realise until Taskmaster came along was how cunning and crafty they can be when he comes to getting one over on their stand-up rivals.
