Had a go at some Taskmaster x The Onion headlines, inspired by these posts 1, 2, from the original mastermind @pandaroboto

Harry's DMs with comedian Joe Lycett after he joked about painting a portrait of Harry, following the Vogue article of Harry getting his portrait painted by artist David Hockney. (5 August 2023)

This is a very funny and effective bit and it will never happen again because it’s sent UK political journalists into a collective meltdown. You can see the moment Kuenssberg realises she’s being played and can’t come up with a response. Sometimes all you need is sarcasm to puncture the kayfabe of TV politics talk shows, where the host, guests and audience all play along with narratives they know are false and presenters allow politicians to spout lie after lie with no push back because they’re afraid to lose their well paid jobs and invites to all the best Establishment parties. Client journalists like Laura K really believe they are serious, important people, but they just chase clout for a living and have total contempt for the public who live and die on the actions of the government they fail to challenge.

This is so adorable, I'm close to sobbing.

How can one man be so sweet and silly.

i've been so unhinged over joe lycett and james acaster the past few weeks i love them

I’m in a Taskmaster vortex so

The outtake from series 4 where Joe Lycett makes his Mel & Shoe gag and Greg steals it with the additional footage from the aired episode, where Alex steals the joke.

It's great to see the oddly big laugh it gets on the aired episode from Greg and the audience when it's just a silly pun but I love this outtake and how they got the gag in the show.

I know some of you aren't on reddit so I just thought I'd let you know I edited another video - "drunk history but it's just taskmaster contestants (and LAH)" so if anyone wants to watch, here's the link :)
