He is both 14 and 74 at the same time and it creates this weird blend of super childish old people humour that just works.
Super childish old people humour is honestly the best description of his humour I've ever heard
He's what happens when the kid who has great ideas that are poorly thought out is given an adult budget
@Hagrid'sdisappointingson damn boy, didn't laugh at an username in ages, kind regards
I think this is the best description ive ever heard of James
YEEEEEES! THIS!!!
James is like a character that escaped from a fever dream.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This comment is far too accurate.
Gico - YOUR fever dream???
He definitely features in my “fevered” 🥵 dreams.....
A young sheogorath
I love that James and Greg's relationship on this show was pure misbehaving student and teacher
And both were teachers lol
@over it Granted one was a percussion teacher. Misbehaving was kinda in the job description.
@@gljames24 he also worked as a teaching assistant in a special needs school
EXACTLY THAT
@@flaherty5090 which is why I respect him more
I don't care who you are, that box of confetti hitting Alex on the back of the head is the peak of comedy
You hate Alex?
That was so close to going so badly
@@Kabitu1 - YOU were so close to going badly!
@@jonhohensee3258 no, it's just funny, that doesn't mean we hate Alex
@@TheClobo2001 We??? You're not "shadowbrine".
Richard Osman announcing his own name like he’s a Pokemon absolutely sends me every time
The pure shock on James face after saying “ah just open the box you pussy”, then his immediate regret, while never fail to make me cry laughing
When someone calls me a "pussy" I just say "you are what you eat" *wink* then shoot them the finger guns.
That sudden outburst to Greg, and Greg being a teacher is always funny no matter what
Yeah, it always will be funny that clip
The cabbage clips will also always be funny
It was and is funny. But it still manages to make me feel just a bit uncomfortable because it seemed a little serious.
The fact that Greg is so tall and towered over James made it that much more intimidating/funny 😂
@@cael_aj He actually used to be a teacher too, it comes naturally i suppose
@@Icaron98 Yeah, and he also used to go by Mr Gilbert for some reason back then?
The fact he had an hour, found a random guy with a santa costume, fireworks and Richard Osman is great...
"My eyes are circles" made me fall in love.
The best way for me to describe James Acaster is "abstract"
yes!
I laughed so hard at "My eyes are circles", he's just too smart for his own good.
If his version of GTA was a full game I'd buy it in a heartbeat
It would be amazing...
GTAcaster?
@@kisbie Yep...you just won the internet.
A GTA set in England? Yes please. Alex's "Pardon?" is spot on!
@@SensationalBanana GTA Kettering (and Burton Latimer).
My favorite part of the Greg scolding James moment, is Alex’s desperate attempt, for a brief moment at the beginning, to keep Greg from beating James on camera lol
He thought that was gonna go in a whole different direction 😂
My favorite James moment is when he says "I know it's early days...are we the stupidest so far?"
I love James but my heart breaks when Alex asks why he doesn't say hello to him 😂
It’s not part of the task!
Lol
My heart broke 💔
The amount of confidence in Greg’s face when James says he couldn’t hold him upside down is inspiring 😂
I can’t stop pissing myself when he says “yeah…..but that’s the real task”
Over my shoulder is a low-key banger.
finally someone says it
I genuinely sing it to myself all the time when I put my bag on 😆
I’m getting older!
Could be an upcoming track for his band Temps 🤔
I love the idea of Greg as James’s long suffering and patient dad
My favorite thing about James that series was the little call backs he did as a genuine fan of the show.
"Is the a boulder?" during his made up song was something Frank Skinner was asked in the first series, that one popped me.
The GTA recreation was INCREDIBLE!
the frame rate 💀
James eyeing Alex at the beginning of every task is THE best bit ever on this show. The kid knows when the envelopes there, Alex isn't anyone's friend.
I love it when there are other people than james and alex there and everyone's just so confused when he doesn't say hello back (the band and phil and rod when they first met)
4:26 For a split second Greg finds James' pussy comment funny, but then realises where he (and that he's the Taskmaster) is and his face drops lmao
I think the smile was a default when a contestant says something, until he fully processed what was said.
Once a teacher, always a teacher. Such a teach move from Greg.
@@deanfenech my exact thought lmao
i still feel like he found it funny and decided to make the moment even funnier by adding his teacher shtick. (
He’s literally so funny but I would loose my marbles if I had to work with him lol
James is the ADHD kid in the back of class that the teacher gave up on and now just ignores
Not saying hello to Alex is the best 😂
even on the Horne Section podcast where he was guest starring he keeps it consistent. What a chaotic treasure Acaster is
I loved the audience reaction when he said "It's not on the task."
'It's not part of the task' 🤣
@@DragonSpawn4TwentyIt was so sad...
@@alexandrezani James and Alex play their characters very well..
Grand Theft Acaster should be a real game.
James on Taskmaster is my favorite thing to have ever happened
One could argue whether James Acaster’s definition of “sweeping a circle” is in fact what it says on the card.
Didn’t expect James to actually be able to play drums at the end lol
He has been in bands, you know :P
Absolutely outstanding work, I award this man's personality 9.73 out of 10 Richard Ayoades.
I wish my postman was Richard Osman
You don't want that. I heard he likes to go through people's cupboards looking for snacks.
@@jonhohensee3258 it's fine though
7:16 want to see a grown man hold another grown man upside down. 😂
Thought for sure his lovely rants in the studio were gonna be included.
...that gta recreation was all just an elaborate excuse for james to swing a bat at alex's head, wasn't it? LASDLDLDFL
I just want Acaster and Davies to have a show together
3:44 His voice when he answers "My eyes are circles?"... 🤣
Stunt bonus, Stunt bonus.
He clearly played it lol.
That song slapped hard
Is that a boulder? lyric was a chef's kiss call back to the first series.
It's very similar to "over and over and over" by jack white lol
0:16 this is the face of a genius finding gold xD
Ive got such a big crush on James lol i know im not the only one🤭
Who are the other ones?
@@jonhohensee3258 Present!
@@user-dh1yq5cz9v - Yeah... but you don't really count.
Absolutely not the only one
@@emilyx6126 - He's not into you, Emily.
2:00
So... His relationship with the Hulla-hoop goes way back
Probably the only good time Channel 4 made a better compilation than the Taskmaster channel itself
37 year old man btw. please never change.
"STUNT BONUS"
James's song was the best.
i need the full version of over my shoulder asap!!
Love how James swears then Greg has a word with him
Wow I just noticed how Alex legitimately thought Greg was going to beat him 😆
Going to see him live in September, so excited 🙏❤
I wish they brought James back each episode 😂
Santa knew if he stopped dancing he would be shot that's why he kept looking at james
3:46 will always be hilarious to me.
It's Rhods face 😂 just like well he makes a good point 👀 😂
Nobody: *nothing*
Richard Osman: "Richard Osman"
The best series so far
Maybe the real task was the circles we made along the way
I love James recreation of GTA. Perfection
3:14 the cut from James blank face, to Greg's upset face, back to James scratching himself on the head upon noticing always gets me 😂
My only celebrity crush, the perfect blend of over-mature and under-mature 🤭
Oh just open the box you 🐈
7:16 Actually cry-laughing at upside down James
"open the box, you pussy." hes just like me fr
Best. Series. Ever

I really would like to know if any fellow Americans out there are as obsessed with these Channel 4 shows and specifically James Acaster as I am. I found James through his 4 episode Netflix special two years ago and really, really enjoyed it. To the point where a whole genre of my youtube feed is James Acaster videos. However, he has a criminally low amount of content on streaming, two specials and one is only available to buy. I need more like yesterday! If anyone has any suggestions of perhaps overlooked British stand ups like James, or know of some underground Acaster content, please feel free to chime in! All that to say, the British own comedy television and game shows and it's not close.
he has a podcast and he hosts a show called hypothetical
@@akashjogi4106 just got done with the Ed Sheeran feature episode of "Off The Menu", now starting the martin Freeman one. Thanks so much for the tip, most of it isn't available on CZcams but it is on Spotify, really good so far, thanks again! I'll definitely check out the show as well if I can access it without a VPN here in the U.S.
I just barely got into him too. I’m an American from Texas. But yeah, British comedy is just too good. I will probably never find American comedy as good because we’re a little sensitive when it comes to swearing on television and that is what makes British comedy so special. They genuinely don’t give a fuck
I find it entertaining not so much because its funny, but because its much different than I'm used to. The obvious bad production quality, and the random, pretty unfunny jokes, but good enough to keep me here, it all just comes together in what I would personally call an entertaining show.
I'm in the same boat. Cold Lasagna Hate Myself 1999 is definitely worth paying for! And you might like 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown! All the episodes are on CZcams.
«Yes i could» 😂🤣😂🤣
Christmas is just an explanation for everything
He's a national treasure this lad!!
Ever noticed that James Acaster is an anagram of Taskmaster? (Well, it ought to be.)
He didn't even win that season
@@meetaverma8372 ???
@@jonhohensee3258 the season was won by Jessica Knappett, wasn't it? 👀👀
@@meetaverma8372 - So???
@@jonhohensee3258 he did not embody the season, which is what this comment was originally indicating
*Sees thumbnail* "There's no way that guy isn't british."
Being weird myself l,m sure there is a new category for James in the best way.
I always think the water in the galoshes noise will work.
Aw, this left out the song analysis where James defended his lyrics with, ""Like, is it a boulder? ...Or is it a big rock...?"
GTA 6 featuring James Acaster....who wouldn't buy that
Alex really thought Greg was about to have a Jeremy Clarkson moment and end the show with that box segment.
“Played into my hands here mate,
fuck you”
“I’m a percussionist myself” and “You’re not a musician, mate”
are some of my favorite lines ever delivered, and it’s a definite bonus that they are back to back. 😂
"My eyes are circles? "
James could've gone somewhere with the circle thing. I just think he couldn't be bothered to explain it.
"Why's he doing that?"
"Christmas."
Oh. Alright.
I definitely want a bottle of wine in my next Christmas cracker
Tarik goes to say 'nt' before realizing they won
1:29 "Richard Osman". 😂
anyone know what kind of suit the green one james is wearing is?
I hope he won with that fantastic Osmond cameo 👌🏼
I know most people on the internet have played one gta or another but it is unfortunate that the boomers who havent cant appreciate how excellent James rendition of Gta animations are
edit: and the sudden vibing to the radio when you steal some car, incredibly spot on
grand theft acaster
Kettering Theft Auto looks good.
“Christmas Cracker.” No, his name is Santa Claus. Call him that
My eyes are circles.
"Fuck you!"
"Pardon?"
11:00
STUNT BONUS
Acaster would be at home in clowncore, I feel.
If anyone knows where I can get that double breasted work jacket James is wearing do let me know.
Ashton's Fashion Museum.
is that a boulder? or is it just a large rock?
Okay but the song? Kind of a banger
Alex legit thought James was gonna get an ass whooping for the pu*** remark lol
stop recycling clips and give us MORE ACASTER
Why is no one discussing the irrelevant santa jumping in the background 🤣
