Oh I plan on it, but tbh about 50% of the appeal of the UK version is that I've had a crush on Greg Davies for about 100 years and on Alex Horne since the moment I became aware of his existence. I love the show on its own merits but I'm not sure the international versions will hit the same.
The NZ version is not up to the same standard of mean Greg and Timid Alex because the kiwis are too nice but the AU version with the two Toms is a pretty good mirror of Greg and Alex. Many tasks are the same so it's cool seeing more tries and different outcomes.
I personally find all of them to have their own appeal. I wish we could have a US version but I know it would never work in our culture lol
There was a US version. It was a bastard of a Taskmaster, slimmed down cast, no prize task, and only 30min long. At least Alex was on it, I watched one episode and had to stop. It was canceled after 1 season. I think the real format could have worked if they stuck to comedians.
Wonder why it wasn't done like normal taskmaster? That's too bad
