This looks so mean, but it's also just so funny.

One of my favorite bits from Taskmaster series 14 is the part from episode 2's outtakes where Alex kept messing up his line trying to announce Dara's points. And then you watch the official episode and you can see Greg (and hear the audience) trying very hard not to laugh.

As I won't be getting to a CoC 3 regrade for years probably, I'll just say that I thought the person who won it was very overscored. I would guess I'd have the person who came in second winning it.

Dara gets annoyed and calls Alex a prick.

And when he can't work out a puzzle, Alex offers a massage to Dara.

Taskmaster series groups (part 3) and their vibes

Series 11: All on a night course for something.

Is Charlotte studying something to do with children? Yes.

What are the others studying? We have no clue but they're working darn hard. (And by that I mean they like to discuss their life more than actually work. They got on the topic of the etymology of tree once.)

Night school makes them feel like they're in a different world, with only them and the building they're in. Oh well. They won't lose their minds, maybe?

Series 12: Book reading evening, not a book club despite what many of them think.

Honestly they just came to get out of the house and actually talk to people, helps pass the time doesn't it.

Series 13: A community drama group.

Honestly none of them are big on acting or drama in general but they suppose they might as well. Just a mash of characters that don't really fit but none of them are going to start a fight with each other. (Not really, Chris wouldn't really allow that since he is the peace-keeper.)

Series 14: Family vibes, found family vibes.

Dara and Sarah definitely are an uncle and aunt from different sides of the family just trying to herd the others and hope they don't get hurt. Fern and John are the most like their kids and Munya is sure he doesn't even need parenting. (Munya does need parenting but it's just better to let him think he doesn't.)

Series 15: Detention kids.

Has Frankie been called in because Ivo's been in detention from not talking to teachers too much? Yes.

Did he also end up in detention? Yes.

Jenny would be there for ignoring the rules during lunch time.

Kiell because he gave attitude to a teacher.

Mae because they started a fight.

It's a very awkward situation because Ivo really just doesn't want to be here. Frankie is planning to leave at the first chance he can get, dragging Ivo with him and the others if they want. Jenny is also making an escape plan but it involves less 'walking-out-the-door' and more costumes and sneaking. Kiell is playing on his phone and has already had his headphones confiscated. Mae wants to break the silence but is very aware they're the only one willing to talk to the others in the room.

Taskmaster series 14

I was excited for this series when the line up was announced. I've been a fan if Sarah and Dara for years, and it made me so happy they were put on the same series. I'd vaguely heard of Munya and Fern, but not seen any of their stuff, while John was new to me. What a nice surprise John was, in an 'absolutely hopeless man' way, I fell for him completely.

I'm honestly surprised that Dara lose his shit more, but god I enjoyed the times he did. I thoroughly enjoyed this series. I loved watching the friendship between Munya and John develop.

Top 3 tasks

There were so many tasks I loved in this series, it was hard to pick just 3.

pick up both milk bottles and hold them directly above the microwaves

"Whats your name?" "John" "Starsign?" "Kearns" I do love John's regret system of putting the worst one's high up. I understand the angst on whether or not to open the task. I probably would have ripped it open, thinking what Alex said was tricksy, and instantly regretted it. Sarahs description of what happens when she drinks milk is...ew. But I love that it was her who thought to empty the cartons. Especially that it was revealed in a later task that it stank the lab out. Daras mini breakdown when he realised he had fucked the task was beautiful . "What, wait? Wait, what? What, wait?"

Get this feather into the bath

Daras immediate anger at John when he tried to move the feather on the cushion was great. It was another task where I was so glad that Dara was put on the same team as John and Fern, they're my favourite team. The combination of them losing the feather and Fern dropping the feather after they’d travelled so far was *chefs kiss* . Dara just loosing his shit laughing in the studio was unsurprising but hilarious. And don’t forget: “with our infinite plates” “there were 12 plates”

I was curious all through Munya and Sarah’s attempt. I loved their communication with each other despite not being able to speak. Which made it so much funnier that they took nearly 25 minutes to complete the task. You have to give them credit for sticking to their guns with the leaf blower.

Write a one-minute one-person play/Stage and perform this one-minute one-person play.

Ferns impression of Sarah’s accent is brilliant, especially as Sarah genuinely enjoyed it. The fact both women did plays about cats is brilliant. Munyas performance of Ferns was great, it was s dramatic. Compare that to Sarah performing Munyas ‘play’, is it any wonder he did so badly in this task? I mean, the ping pong balls? No wonder Sarah was livid. Why, WHY, was John so Southern? Daras script was the best if you ask me. And his acting was the best, especially with so few lines.

Shoutout to the second live task where they had to get Greg to say their word, because Jesus christ I was crying laughing at it.
