Greg Davies is the "Taskmaster" in this game show that challenges the wit and wisdom of five comics, who are all putting their reputations on the line. Sidekick Alex Horne assists Davies in setting up unique and ridiculous tasks for the competitors, which include painting a picture of a horse whilst riding a horse, and making a portrait of a celebrity using only toilet rolls. The competition is further charged up by the fact that the prize pot is made up of each person's personal possessions, which they lose to the overall winner.

Margaret Lyons New York Times Jun 11
Taskmaster” is breathtakingly novel: I’m amazed by its capacity to remain unpredictable to both its viewers and its participants. Go to Full Review Kevin Slane Boston Globe May 30
To paraphrase former “Whose Line” host Drew Carey, the rules of “Taskmaster” are largely made up, and the points — though fastidiously tracked by Horne — ultimately don’t matter. Go to Full Review David Sims The Atlantic May 10
American humor can often be more brash than British comedy, which is cloaked in irony and self-deprecation. So far, however, Mantzoukas’s high energy is gelling well with the show’s competitive bent. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
