#Lizzie watches Taskmaster

[jameszmaguire]

I cannot stress enough how 'Do something stupid' was originally a Taskmaster NZ task, how during the filming of it one contestant (Urzila Carlson) broke a bone, and how that was not even the reason the task never made it to air - it wasn't shown because another contestant, Guy Montgomery, fulfilled the task by putting his dick in a toaster

#Taskmaster #Taskmaster NZ #urzila talks about it on the taskmaster podcast!! #anyway justice for kiell and like. dara is an immensely worthy winner but also sophie is the champion of champions in my heart #Lizzie watches Taskmaster #sort of lifeblogging

tagged by @leupagus to share some music i’ve been listening to. most of the time with my fixations, there’s one song that i’ll listen to for a few weeks. And then, much like a high schooler with a single cd player, I will make an eclectic playlist of my fixations so they’re all in one place

-Euroleague by Paul Williams (also known for being a comedian and the New Zealand Taskmaster’s Assistant), It’s just on repeat a lot cause Ritika cursed me with this song. It’s a short song which means I hear it a lot

-Home to Me (Live) by Devil and the Deep Blue Sea which is a duo made up of Lizzie No and Patrick Kennedy. Truthfully, I don’t know who the man is but Lizzie No is a great country musician and this is one my favorite earlier songs of hers. There’s a line in it that’s “How dare you love me like you’ve never known fear?” which is, frankly, a lot

-Impossible Dream from the Man of La Mancha. I was rewatching the 2020 (2021?) Tony Award performances and Brian Stokes Mitchell performed this song but I only have the Richard Kiley version. It’s a very fun song to sing especially when you work in a lab by yourself. I joked to the archivist that if you can’t handle me at my worst [singing Man of La Mancha over & over again], you don’t deserve me at my best [which is also singing Man of La Mancha over & over again]

Honorable mention to the tick, tick...BOOM! album from netflix, a production I didn’t expect to like as much as I did and the theme song to Bluey which is a childrens tv show my nephews won’t stop watching but the theme is so fucking catchy

I think Sue and Susan win 'Taskmaster team-up most likely to have gotten married in-between task and studio recording', they are honestly probably the team that has gotten along best in the history of the show

I do respect Kiell for being the first contestant in 15 series to just point-blank refuse to eat any of the disgusting Taskmaster food abominations

okay, we're at the halfway point of this taskmaster series, here's my prediction on who will win it:

#Taskmaster #Lizzie watches Taskmaster #thank you i'll be here all week and/or i'll see myself out #it seemed like a topical joke to make for the time of the year

[jameszmaguire]

honestly the group vibes between the casts of series 15 and 16 could quite literally not be more different

I don't fault the UK version for taking on tasks from the Kiwi version, because they are currently the best TM spin-off at coming up with tasks, but most of the ones they've adapted make me go rewatch the NZ tasks, because usually those versions fully broke one of the contestants

#Taskmaster #Taskmaster NZ #i don't remember all the nz tasks they've adapted but just off the top of my head: #josh losing it over the fortune trail task. paul ego vs the golf task. david having a mental breakdown over the grape escape. #chris parker getting broken by pi. laura and the traitor task. #sort of lifeblogging #Lizzie watches Taskmaster

'worst task and worst response to a task in fifteen seasons' have we forgotten spitgate in season 13 so soon already??

BIG fan of the range Ivo has displayed in a single episode - Joe Thomas level thinking in the price task? sucking up to Greg? cuddling Jenny? role-playing the Ever Given? the curse of politeness? backstabbing Kiell first opportunity he got? incredible work
