except the us one, that was just trash as usual

There's never been a US version. Closest was season 19 with Jason on the show. Never ever.

I wish I spoke other languages. I love taskmaster but felt like I was missing too many facial expressions and moments of physical comedy by reading the subtitles when I watched the Norwegian version

Australia and New Zealand have their own and multiple seasons of it already. Both are nearly as good as the original. They're definitely different but they're still hilarious.

Oh yeah I LOVE those versions
And we'll just pretend they never even tried one in the US.

Technically Canada had one. But it was Quebecois. So never really aired outside the province I don't think.

Really? Was it in English or French? Same format or just kinda like the uk version?
Adderbox76@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 136d
French with English subtitles.

I feel like the network is what fucked that up and putting Reggie Watts there just...what? They should have kept the format and gotten someone like Liam Neeson to be the TM and then someone not so known to play the assistant.

The lineup they chose was also unappealing
SupraMario@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 136d
%100 agreed on that. The lineup was just what??? I wanted to see Conan on there or like will farrel, but nope...got a lot of people who just didn't fit the format of the show at all.
