Taskmaster series 18, episode 2 - ...and then a detective comes
Let’s discuss tasks, contestants and the show in general.
Spoilers ahead.
I have to say, the current season is quite dull. So far I haven't seen any tasks with a wow-factor (remember names of some mannequins, really???), and the cast doesn't really seem to warm up to each other like in most previous seasons. I know it's still early days, but as of now, it looks very uninspired. Shoutout to Rosie though, she's the star of the show already. Her price task had me in tears (and the one from the first episode was by far the best as well).
I disagree respectfully, I thoroughly enjoyed most tasks and the banter.
The one thing with Rosie is that she's a bit hard to understand, as a non-native speaker.
Subtitles are a must when she shows up. Lovely person, but objectively difficult to understand, even for a native speaker like me. Hard mode is when she guest stars on a podcast lol.
i love Emma and seeing her sleuthing through the mannequin task (the second time) was excellent
the spinny wheel for the live show, though...
The mannequins had the same names as the Aussie Rules team from the first season (The Yank Tank stuck in my head). I wonder if they'll make a reappearance since now the contestants (in theory) know their names.
Emma's ability to sleuth, while wearing a detective outfit, was delightful! Amazing.
Rosie's prize task was a worthy winner, brilliant entry.
I can't believe they actually went with the smoothie idea, especially after Baba's reaction.
"Creatures of habit, just like nuns." With humour like that, I'm assuming Alex enjoys cryptic crosswords.
Anyone find the mannequins' names familiar? I wonder if it was just a callback or if they'll appear again.
I like the idea that someone forgot to wear the hotdog outfit and brings it out for the final's studio task.
