My wife and I decided to do a Taskmaster rewatch before series 21 lands. We started with the New Zealand version and just finished series 4 of the original.
I couldn't quite find that Taskmaster spark in the New Zealand version. I think the Taskmaster is a bit too stiff and doesn't seem to be having fun. In contrast, I loved Taskmaster Australia season 4, especially Dave Hughes.
I had the opposite experience. Jeremy is fun enough, I like when the folks that have known him forever take him down a peg. And I like Paul as the assistant, I see why he friends with Acaster and that circle of UK comedians. But I don't like either Tom on TM AU. Gleeson kind of just seems like a prick.
