In this Broadcast Award-winning, BAFTA and Emmy Award-nominated entertainment show, Taskmaster tyrant Greg Davies (Man Down, Cuckoo), with the help of his loyal assistant Alex Horne (The Horne Section and the show’s creator), sets out to test the wiles, wit and wisdom of five hyper-competitive comedians.
Comedians that have risked life, limb, and dignity in the hope of making the Taskmaster proud so far include: Frank Skinner (The Frank Skinner Show), Mel Giedroyc (The Great British Bake Off), Romesh Ranganathan (Asian Provocateur), Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’ Diary), Rose Matafeo (Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner 2018), and Russell Howard (The Russell Howard Hour). Unaware of what awaits them in each wax-sealed envelope, only one competitor can become the victorious owner of His Royal Task-ness’ golden head and be crowned the next Taskmaster Champion. - Komedie
tetris was so accurate. the stress, the panic, the failure
Except tetraminos are only 4 blocks, not 5
The music
Now I'm thinking of paranoid android.
The panic the vomit, the panic the vomit
@@vet2978 Yep, right there in the name! Dominoes are 2, Triminoes are 3, Tetraminoes are 4, Pentaminos are 5, Polyominoes is the general term. You preobably already know this, I just wanted to say it because I've never gotten to use that knowledge.
Trey Atkins understandable
James' movements, the random jumping on GTA, were spot on!
@Maiahi GTA V
It was just not a a Classic game, 1 and 2 is only seen top down.
Back when it was still a Scottish made game.
Let's not forget how to genuinely open a door GTA-style.
Stunt Bonus!
Definitely more vice city
James even did the awkward wide armed stance that gta characters do, and the jump that looks like they want to run up an invisible staircase
@Malik Santiagoyou were correct in that nobody cares
@@FreezingmoonDSBM report both of those replys, I've seen that exact line of replys.
@@pipsqueakking7263 same!
same report for unwanted commercial and spam
been seeing a lot of spam lately on CZcams
This is honestly the best task ever. I don't believe one second they did this in one hour but damn this was amazing.
It's plausible that they were shot in an hour but they certainly weren't edited within the same hour.
BaoBao's Music I believe the editing takes place later
I'm just wondering where Rhod got an army in one hour.
Yeah. It would takes hours to make the Tetris blocks. Plus you have to have all the material and colours at hand. Making cardboard guns! Much more difficult. And how do you just happen to have two golf carts laying around!
@@merhona3472 Or 100 people in a field wearing matching outfits...
this is the first time ive seen a version of tetris where a woman flops onto the screen out of empathetic frustration with the player
Looks like someone never reached lvl 99.
@@sandoumir4348 Like you did 🙄
classic Lv20+ be like
But we've all felt like this while playing the game.
Its probably on the Amiga
How did the guy doing space Invaders get that many people together in an hour? Is that what having friends is like?
Twitter probably
They have a very large crew at their disposal.
Couldn't tell you, honestly 🤷♀️
Pretty sure they have extras on hand plus a lot of crew
I think the preparation time is not included in the hour. That, or they had materials set up in advance for everyone's task, including stuff like paper, scissors, golf carts, a bunch of extras, etc.
The Goldeneye 007 one was brilliant. If you haven't played the game, you can't appreciate how spot on the camera angles are. And the awkwardness of the character's motion. All of it. Just brilliant.
Yes. I thought it was the best - but as you said, if you don't know the game... I think whenever you need to rate something, nostalgia plays a big part. As a mad Rare fan of the 90s, I loved it.
That game used to give headaches
I think it was the best one!
I remember the 2 dogs you found out side :,)
Would have been spot on if they were on one knee and just sliding around (crouched movement). I think that's how all my games went.
I would do Sims and set the stove on fire
Just do Skyrim and put buckets on people's heads.
Then just put up a card with a crash error and the recreation is perfect.
YES, and also be upset about a random plate on the floor you can’t get past
Or theme hospital and make everyone walk around with balloon heads
dont forget drowning ppl in the pool!
Plot twist: you spend the whole hours filming yourself staring into nothingness
Don't want to just say the same thing as everyone else, but god, Acaster's GTA was not only spot-on, but meshed really perfectly with his personality? If I saw him walking like that, I'd be amused but not really confused; singing "music, music in the car" is an excellent, distinctive touch, wiggling around after he "died" as well
Agreed, super spot on. I like how he randomly jumps while running around. Its almost hard to even picture a GTA character just running straight while not jumping.
This is without a doubt the best task in Taskmaster history, and it's mostly thanks to all 5 participants being brilliant! The intro (where the task is presented in a video game) was an amazing start too!
Eh I liked so many other tasks better than this. This didn't require any cleverness or tactics or anything. This is coming from a huge gamer as well.
@@MsHojat Right, but it's pure creativity and effort. When I saw the task I expected at least half of them to be either bad ideas or terribly executed. But no, they were all great ideas and they all went all out on the execution.
Well, apart from the Tetris one maybe.
Nothing can beat Tree Wizard but this was excellent.
@@breanna6257 No argument, but the rest of the people on that task weren't so great. In this one, every single one was brilliant and unique.
And Alex had fun ! 😂
Frankly, I'm surprised more tasks don't involve some kinda challenge in a videogame
Every detail of the Goldeneye recreation was perfect, but I can see how the uninitiated wouldn't understand what was going on.
I agree
Yeah... I was disoriented the whole time, which is exactly how I remember golden eye! I didn't last long playing _that_ game!
So many props to the editor
And props to the prop department
This is probably the first time James genuinely really invested himself to win
You’re forgetting the grand hula hoop incident
James cheated, you can't just record screen footage of GTA and call it a day!
Right?! Totally unfair they counted it 😭
i’m a simple man, i see the back of james acaster’s head, i click
Damn. I don’t like being called out like this
Which is why he has a restraining order against you.
She did a good job of capturing the theme of tetris, which is the same theme as other russian creative works, like crime and punishment. That is, the impending despair of an existence which extends from and is impacted by the failures of your past, compounding, growing too fast, and leading to one’s demise. Ah russian literature, isn’t it beautiful
Russian games quite often have such themes i wonder why? Pathologic comes to mind
The first version of Tetris was made in russia in 1984 by Alexey Pajitnov and then 'stolen' by america. So.. yeah.. Russian outlook on life..
@@lpawowp Russian games are amazing. Pathologic, King's Bounty, Eador: Genesis, Pathfinder: Kingmaker, ATOM, Space Rangers 2, etc. I think it's because of the lack of stigma attached to gaming in Russia that they make more intelligent games while in the US they often 'go full retard' because they despise the player.
Да, это Россия
every time someone suffers, a Russian intellectual orgasms
This is my favourite task, the fact that some poor intern had to screw around in rpgmaker for it makes it even better
“I don’t play video games. I don’t know how to do them!”
being so out of her depth that she made the T blocks from 5 place holders (the hint was tetra) and threw herself on top of it only makes it more accurate somehow ??? I honestly want that clip to play at CTWC
@@puckbryn3583 I am relatively sure someone suggested tetris and wouldn't you know, they already had the blocks hanging around. It does unwittingly capture the anxiety induced by Tetris even without very much (or indeed any) experience in it, but that's probably mostly Alex pushing the speed up.
@@TimoRutanen Well Greg said the blocks were made with bricks, and all the pieces except the T-block could be made by simply taping or glueing 2 bricks together. She could easily make those 20-30 blocks in an hour, especially if she had the crew help her once she told them her idea. Similarly to how I assume Rhod might have asked the crew to get the white suits, boxes and so on from the hardware store while he went on Twitter to recruit some invaders.
In my mind, James Acaster won the second he THREW that door open in true GTA fashion.
James has the best performance, but the editors did all the hard work! I think this is the best task throughout all the seasons.
Without a doubt, this was my favorite task.
That was literally Tetris. "NO THAT'S TOO FAST. THERE'S NO WAY TO WIN NOW." 🤣
I’d love to see Paul chowdry do this and see him put a halo above his head and say
“It’s Halo innit”
I laughed more than I should have at this.
I appreciate Kerry's anxiety, I've broken a couple of phones over that fn game Tetris.
At least in the Taskmaster version you can know for certain that there's a malicious intelligence behind the blocks!
@@NivMizzet89 FFS, I have a line 24 blocks long... Give me damn line block already!
wow you must really suck at tetris
@@Trollololololful I did.
Phenomenal job with GTA by James, mildly disappointed he didn't go to a 5 star wanted level though! ;)
This is on Dave, so they couldn't afford the cardboard tank :p
Lol the way James walks out the door ready to commit some crimes
First task I show folks when I'm trying to explain what the heck this show is. And Alex got to have fun. Fantastic!
Edit to add: This entire episode if I have the time, which also has the best multiple step task ever (tie yourself up...).
I show the potato toss task from S2.
@@fosterjr87 It's near the top of my list once I get em hooked, but if someone is really incredulous and I gotta grab attention quick... 🙂
@@fosterjr87 you can find the rest online without too much trouble, but if you have the patience to wait you should. Whenever you get to it, it's worth it (and most everything in-between is too)
I am thinking of the dude videoediting James...
"This imbecille fooled around and I'm doing his job here"
Something like that.
Credit where credit is due. Alex is the creator of the show. This episode truly shows his comedic talent.
STUNT BONUS!
stunt bonus
stunt bonus
*stunt bonus*
I loved Greg's choice in the scoring. The fact is, all of them did an amazing job, very inventive and took a lot of work, and they were enjoyable to watch. But it would have stunk to bail out and just give them all 5, first because it would make the round meaningless (no impact on the relative scores), and they weren't really all "equal" (I mean, Rhod's took a tremendous amount more coordination and organization, and Kerry, adorable as she was, couldn't handle Tetris... Tetris! Everyone's mom plays Tetris!).
But Greg's solution was rather ingenious, because giving the middle two a tie meant that nobody had to be the "loser" (in the sense of getting just one point). That acknowledged that they all were worthy of merit, while still properly rewarding James and Rhod for the work and ingenuity that went into theirs. Kudos to that!
Illusion-XIII I second this comment! 👍🏾👍🏾
I don't know, haver you ever seen those twitch streams of Tetris? People got mad skills out there.
@@Nuadin Oh yeah, there are definitely masters who take it to the next level. I'm just saying that the bar for entry is pretty low, so you don't expect to see someone struggle. But at the end of the day, it's all entertaining.
Wow, absolutely insane. All 5 of them were incredible.
06:05 The moment when she just mirroring the Z-Block to a S-block - its killed me 😂
I'm a tad bit confused on why the t blocks have an extra block for the vertical line
5:04 that was so spot on holy crap
Definitely should have got more points.
@@AyeHuman he was tied for third, which is pretty good, especially considering he got beat out by a recreation of Space Invaders and a hilarious versions of GTA.
@@howardbaxter2514 yeah but the oddjob joke alone should have guaranteed him first
The Tetris theme is copyright free, actually. It's a traditional Russian tune, though obviously they couldn't use the arrangement in the games.
Looks like they made the taskmaster game on rpg maker.
Well, how much budget do you expect from Dave?
@@PokerJoker811 not insulting it I thought it was cool
I wanna play that now
James: “That’d better not be who I think it is.”
Alex: “Hello.”
James: “…”
Now THAT is how you open a door.
As a bit of a gamer myself, this was so entertaining to see!
James really brought it home with the unhuman looking jumps, truly amazing.
“You and the patron saint of pastry” kills me every time 🤣🤣🤣
That task intro alone had me wowed, the rest of the performances was amazing!
Kerry's Tetris frustration is the same as when you try to bag your shopping at Lidl's checkout!
Haha, I know the feeling. Next time I will lie down on top of my groceries in protest!
@@lucasbeer Genius!!
I cried to James' GTA. From the opening of the door, to the random jumps and the explosive fits of violence, it was spot on.
Bring back James to the show
Yes please
He was the perfect contestant because he "loves loopholes".
Though I also enjoyed Rhod Gilbert in that series.
Tbh i would love to see a taskmaster special with the “top 5 fan favorites that didnt win.” Literally just post a thing somewhere with all the non-winners from the show and the 5 with the most votes do a short series or something
James wins hands down, deservedly so, for the way he opened the fucking door good lord.
James missed the best opportunity to destroy a car.
I'm starting to believe they are very generous with that "you have one hour."
It's only an hour if Alex says it is an hour.
the best thing about this was Rhod's surprise at being called a computer game n00b at 2:20 . He really thought he had this...
I mean, he would have had James not absolutely mastered the art of being a GTA character.
♫
Oh, music
Music playing in the car
Loads of music playing in the car
♪
"...and I was dressed as James Bond, 𝒸ₐᵤₛₑ ᵢₘ ₛₒ 𝒸ₒₒₗ"
This is the best season of taskmaster and James Acaster has 100% to do with that
That Space Invaders skit was fucking genius.
Ah that famous song “Oh Music! Music playing in the car Loads of music”
Can we take some time to appreciate the editing on this episode? Insanely spot on.
Something about the sight of Rhod herding a crowd of people telling them to make Space Invader noises with a megaphone kills me every time lmao
Love the Golden Eye one.. My idea when I heard the task was basically that same execution but with *DOOM* instead..
rhod always looking like he’s about to collapse after his tasks is so funny lmfaoo
is it bad that i knew it was james just from the back of his head?
We all knew it was him. That’s why half of the audience clicked so fast!
THANK YOU.
0:31 That's Vector from despicable me!
These non-copyright-infringing recreations are way better than they deserve to be. Fun that everyone got at least 2 points.
I agree. No one deserved just one point, but there definitely was a clear winner in James.
This is amazing. This makes me want to go out and do this with friends.
For me, Rhod's was clearly the best, except when he admitted to trying to actually hurt the people with the tennis balls.
But Kerry captured the essence of frustration that Tetris brings!!
Ahh James Acaster please never cease to exist
I would do nancy drew, have her move by teleporting, do the "can't check that off yet, still have to do that, havent done that" spam, then have her fail a really easy jigsaw puzzle and somehow end up dying because of it
I would do Legend of Zelda but then I'd need to quickly learn how to do a backflip.
the copyright for korobeiniki (tetris song) went out long long ago if it ever existed since it was written under feudalistic Russia when ruled under the tsar (Alexander ll at the time)
The editors had so much fun with this task as well
Boom, tetris for... Errr... Nevermind.
Jeff is a God
Pallidum Treponema hahaha that’s genius
Some insane community overlap here
It's Phil Wang's,, mom?, sister?, I can't tell. . . . (edited out the Asian bit, I don't think everyone will get the reference)
Haha this is the best one yet! The stunt bonus did it for me.
A lot of the tasks tend to be meh but every now and then a true gem appears. This was one of those ones. Amazing job all around.
this task alone is one of the reasons why I love Taskmaster!
"Not sure you're allowed to sing the theme tune in case we can't clear it..." Don't worry, she wasn't
Why would you need to clear an old Russian folk song? It's not copyrighted.
Just when I think I’ve already seen my favourite task... I see something like this!!
This was the coolest task. Maybe not the funniest but it looked like they all had fun!
Slamming the door open - killed me.
This challenge was dope! I loved them all...everybody is 1st place!!!
Anyone else irritated about the T piece in tetris?
thank you james
There are so many great tasks and moments on this show that I love, but I still think of this one all the time, probably because of how much of my own time I waste on video games.
I think this is my favorite episode yet.
These were all great!
This task was amazing.
They all did so well
Pew! Pew! Pew!
The sound effects often make the difference between an ok game and an EXCELLENT game.
Ah yes, the classic capital T shape from Tetris, with its iconic five-block structure
*"You and the patron saint of pastry."*
Not enough people are talking about that comment
What does it mean actually?
My favourite bit from Taskmaster. 5 stars!
Omg this might be my absolute favorite task!
The second one was my favorite. Literally it’s so good
Okay thus was by far my fav!
Best task ever! I want this one on the swedish version of taskmaster!
My absolute favorite task of all time
"bricks"
Ummm excuse me, they're called tetrominos
Patron saint of pastry
that was a very well done task
Golden Guy was a blast! Would have loved it even more if he had Alex throw his bowler, dodge, and give him an ominous look.
That space invaders was smooth af
This is the first fun task that everyone liked doing
"That's not fair!"
- Kerry Godliman's catchphrase
Or her typical, “No” when faced with anything she doesn’t like 😂
Possibly the best results from a task
Phils laugh hahahha
