Series 15 OUTTAKES - Part 2 | Taskmaster

[@beesokay]

Greg saying "thats not a secret, im very proud of him." was one of the most threatening and chilling things ive ever heard. Perfect

[@sfshinz]

“Are you on top of your own show, or are you just sitting on a chair, near it?” Savage burn, Ivo. Pity it wound up on the editor’s floor.

[@angeladawn805]

I guess it was totally at odds with the persona put across on the show. But he's a canny lad ( love the father - son relationship with Frankie!

[@Sicanda]

I'm so glad that we still got to see it because wow, that might have been Ivos greatest line in the whole series. :D

[@randomdude189]

[@MilesPlaysPriv]

my favorite season yet

[@Zach90888]

@@randomdude189Yeah, we all have our least favourites. Mine’s series 10, but I’ve seen it at the top of a lot of lists

[@ThisCharmingMan1984]

The bit where it cuts to Ivo, with his head in his hands, followed by a brief pause, before Frankie slowly turns towards him, and says “You just couldn’t shut the fuck up, could you Ivo”, is pure comedy gold; the comic timing is the very the personification of perfection- like something you might see in some classic sitcom. This was an amazing series, with a seriously fantastic cast.

[@bugbear2357]

Frankie and Ivo really did have a classic sitcom vibe going on a lot of the time

[@combogalis]

The chemistry of this group is so great. Even when they're legitimately arguing, rather than getting annoyed I want to hear them continue. They feel like a semi-dysfunctional family. Also I am in love with Mae.

[@JStorkey6]

I love Mae and Greg just continuing to talk about the puppet as the others complain

[@Hexen_Wulf]

I would never in a million years have suggested that Frankie would be the calm, rational arguer.

[@Gildedmuse]

​@@Hexen_Wulf Have you seen his New World Order show? His more tranquil, less aggressive nature reminds me of his presentation there. That show also has quite a few more honest moments where he drops his more angry stage persona, and I notice that most of the comedians when they come on Taskmaster tend not to play their stage persona, so it doesn't surprise me that he was calmer here.

[@bethpettigrew9442]

@@Gildedmuse Well he didn't mention Prince Andrew once, which, while probably for the best, disappointed me.

[@r3snaadille]

@@Hexen_Wulf I think you might not know him too well. Here he doesn't have to play a persona, he's just being him. In his standups and elsewhere he usually is completely different.

Fantastically brilliant.

[@hanspecans]

Incredible bit.

[@Gragore]

Kiell's reactions were the highlight of the whole series. Hilarious to see the outtakes took them even further. XD

[@MinekEzQM]

Now imagine the raw footage of the handcuff task - as they say was heavily edited in his favor. Yes, he was the new Ed Gamble. I generally don't like these type of people, on the other side, I admit the variety of the cast needs a "competition over anything" personality. It would be boring with 5 gentlepeople.

[@JStorkey6]

@@MinekEzQM I think Kiell was irritable in a funny way and the team seemed to genuinely like each other. Not like Ian Stirling and Lou Sanders lmao.

[@FluffyCrimsonBirkenstocks]

Ed puts on a show. Kiell was genuinely annoyed but his timing on how he conveys his annoyance is great comedy

[@DizzyBusy]

I think Greg Davies, outside of his role as the Taskmaster, actually has the exact sense of humour as Mae Martin. They can probably just banter, bouncing sentences ad absurdum.

[@drumurrrgh]

Frankie being an unstoppable agent of chaos was everything I hoped he'd be

[@skeliskellington5233]

The cast are simultaneously ready to fight or give each other pats on the back during the entire duration lmao

[@glenrobinson10]

This was probrolly one of the best seasons. A wonderful cast with wonderful complementary chemistry.

[@MinekEzQM]

There are fans who love the show for the cats and their chemistry. I fell in love with TM because of the tasks. If they meet the right cast, that's just a bonus. E.g. See how the "Eat the Grape" is almost half entertaining without David Correos, or how "Score 11 points" were ruined by a glasses man. But the tasks are still brilliant. This series' tasks were mediocre to my taste. And the great cast couldn't really elevate it. The camera crew and the editing was 100% as always, though. Mae finding the extra pineapples was a brilliant moment and well delivered to the screen.

[@randomdude189]

It was actually the worst season thus far

[@dp-g5i]

A great cast... and Mae Martin

[@RustyBucket2]

The Brian Cox outtake is great, I love Frankie

[@lilyobrien6782]

I could literally watch Frankie do impressions all day

[@genocidestomper]

13:53 is the moment of the season for me. Franky just saying what we all thought out loud, and in a way to really twist the knife. Absolutely amazing

[@alnushka]

“Are you in top of your own show or are you sitting on a chair near it?” WHY DID THEY CUT IT?

[@schristopher9269]

because it undermines the authority of the Taskmaster

[@Emilio1985]

Sadly, because the amount of additional banter time required to lead up to that joke being as awesome as it was would be too much. Even an extra 30 or 40 seconds would require taking that time out somewhere else and, for that episode, where else could you pull from?

[@bethpettigrew9442]

So that it would end up on the "editor's floor" and make the joke 10x truer and 10x funnier?

[@AndrewJW]

Seriously, the best jokes from this seasons were in the outtakes

[@skilletborne]

Kayfabe It's barely a secret, but admitting or acknowledging it in the show makes the format and vibe fall apart

[@Sa5mRoxUrSox]

My dad and i never liked the same things then taskmaster started. Every week. Without fail, we would sit and watch it together. When he was seriously ill with leukaemia, i recorded them for him to watch with me when he was better, and thats just what we did. 4 years on, he got secondary cancer and was always tired. He couldn't keep his eyes open for more than 2 mins. Although i continued recording them, it became clear he would never watch them again. His leukaemia came back and he got sepsis and died. I deleted all the recordings so ive missed a lot but im really enjoying what you put out on youtube and im hoping to start watching the ones on TV

[@pppolaroids]

Oh! Yes!

[@Emilio1985]

I was thinking that if a contestant just placed their hand on the jelly, would that count? Because they weigh however much they way, and they are on top of (and on) the jelly. Nowhere does it say that the jelly has to support the full weight of what's on top of it, so I wonder if that would be an accepted workaround or if Alex and the crew would object and insist on doing the task in the spirit of the instructions.
