Do you watch any of the other Taskmaster versions?

We watch the UK one (of course), plus the NZ one in my house (their second series is brilliant). I tried the US one but I’m not sure I even got through the first episode.

I’ve heard that the Norwegian (or was it the Danish?) Taskmaster was good but I haven’t tried yet. There’s quite a few to chose from now, too many for me to try myself.

    I didnt particularly like the Aussie one, it wasnt bad, just didnt have the same vibe that the UK one had. The banter felt more like straight bullying, and the contestants seemed to be trying too hard to be funny/edgy/interesting.

    Ill still watch next season if it comes out though, maybe they were just warming up.

        I hope we aren’t seen that way :( I’d like to beleive that we are capable of being closer to the UK level of friendly banter (its equally possible i am misinterpreting the UK banter as being more friendly than it is). I think its just season 1 jitters, amd possibly some poor casting?

        I am watching season 9 UK and it just feels like there is no single person who is constantly the butt of the joke, even Greg is made fun of fairly regularly.
