Taskmaster - S6E2 'Tarpeters'
Comments (39)
There's been enough episodes now that you could make a Best of Taskmaster Reactions and all of us taskmaster nerds will watch it repeatedly lol
Not only should you not skip series, you should keep in mind that after series 10, taskmaster started doing an annual New Year's Treat episode. Would love to see those too
Genuine jumpscare when Jess brought the Philomena wig out, I thought a random feral child had wandered in!
Im really enjoying rewatching the season with you guys. It does seem to be underrated - I think its mostly because it's sandwiched between 5 and (many ppl's fav) 7... But Im really enjoying it tbh xx
I think the problem with this S6 is they are all too nice and just in it for the craic. It's good to have a chaotic person, a wants to win person etc the personalities here are maybe to similar
Just in case you were interested, "tarp" is short for tarpaulin
"I dig it" "I know" 👀
I dont understand the request for a skip either. I've watched every series. No matter who's on, whether you know them or not, great moments always come out of it. I'm always wondering how I'd do the tasks and some of the things both the writers and the contestants come up with are amazing. Keep enjoying the show guys.
Rusell Howard is my yardstick for how I should look and feel, as he was born the day after me. Turns out having immense wealth makes you look a lot better than the plebs like me! :)
So glad you two are enjoying this series! Jess - I loved your Ally anecdote "She slapped the chickens out of them" 🤣
This is a good season on its own, but I think it is unfairly judged because it is between two awesome seasons. Yeah personally I think season 7 is one of the top 5 seasons but we can’t judge it based on other seasons. The cast on this season are funny and work well together and each episode is solid
Never heard of this being a disliked season till your first episode, very odd, glad you didn't skip it.
It's famously one of the least liked series but as we say around here, having a least liked series of Tasmaster is like having a least like breed of puppy.
Jess! Tim Vine wrote directed and starred in his own Elvis film, as his tribute act "Plastic Elvis". The film is a tribute/parody/homage in the style of Elvis' old movies. I really want to watch it but it only played some festivals last year. Trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGgxFoq5uDU
Still really enjoying your reactions guys! I always look forward to this and to Only Fools.
This episode proves why you're right on why one shouldn't listen to the audience on what 'not' to watch because they're always wrong 😂
Ahahaha I lost it at the Jumanji reference! Never made that connection before and now it's going to make me chuckle every time 😂
Jess on only fans wig edition
Tim plays gigs as Plastic Elvis, hes on You Tube
Tarpaulin is the proper word for tarp.
Such an underrated season. Love it
No Tim puns as of yet
Was Jess blinking morse code to us? She was blinking so much for the last task, and many double pattern blinks 😅
Tim is huge Elvis fan...just finished a tour as plastic Elvis..please watch a bit of his stand up....btw Frank Skinner is a huge Elvis fan too....he once did a documentary about buying a shirt worn by elvis
You know the task is going to be fun when all contestants groan on the mention of task.
As the years go on, I realise I really just love Liza Tarbuck. She has the fun energy of the best auntie. She is a real treasure.
Her radio show on BBC Radio 2 was genuinely lovely, in a cosy middle aged sort of way. She's a naturally funny and charming person with no pretentiousness.
A rare Alex Horne mistake here: in the live task, Russell and Tim managed to fool Greg once, so they should've won the task! Not that it really matters, Taskmaster's not really about the points anyway :)
He said only 1 winner would get the 5 points
Liza is funny as, loved her in this series
please don't skip any series, they are all amazing. without series 6 i would not have watched 'People Just Do Nothing' with Asim in it. What a great show.
One of the best shows and chubbuddy G what a character
👍👍👍
This series is very underrated, I really liked all the cast members. Great reaction to it 🤩😍
Just in case no-one has mentioned yet, Lisa is the daughter of old-school "chicken in a basket" comedian Jimmy Tarbuck. Jimmy Tarbuck, strangely, first got some fame after he stole a diamond cigarette holder from the dressing room of Terry Thomas.
She also plays Rita one of the factory workers in extras ( when the whistle blows)
You don't know how much I need this. My ear split on Saturday night and I've had about 6 hours of sleep since then. Absolutely shattered but Taskmaster with the pals is a welcome respite.
First comment, boom
😂
