New Taskmaster Season 19 Lineup: Who's Ready to Tackle the Tasks?

Hey everyone! So, Taskmaster season 19 is finally here, and I'm buzzing! I've been a massive fan since, well, forever. Seriously, I've lost track of how many times I've rewatched the earlier seasons. This show is just pure, unadulterated genius. It's hilarious, unpredictable, and honestly, sometimes I feel like I need a shower after watching an episode – that's how much I get into it!

This season's lineup? Let's just say it's a wild ride. I'll be honest, when I first saw the names, I was a little…underwhelmed. I had some high expectations, you know? Like, I was hoping for some absolute legends. I remember being super disappointed when I thought they weren't going to have any returning champions on the new season. Turns out, I was completely wrong!

Getting to Know the Season 19 Taskmaster Contestants

So, who are we talking about? This season brings a pretty diverse group of comedians, actors and other assorted weirdos to the Taskmaster table. Let's break it down.

• Sarah Kendall: I've been a fan of Sarah's work for years, she's absolutely brilliant! Her deadpan delivery is pure gold. I'm so excited to see her tackle the tasks. I predict some truly unexpected approaches. I think she's gonna be a strong contender!

• Morgana Robinson: This woman is a comedic chameleon! She’s known for her brilliant impressions, and I have no doubt she'll bring that versatility to the tasks. I can already picture her creating some seriously inventive solutions – even if they're a bit…off the wall. Maybe she'll even do a Greg Davies impression... or a Alex Horne impression. That would be amazing!

• Aisling Bea: This Irish comedian is sharp, incredibly quick-witted, and hilarious. I have a feeling she's going to be a total force to be reckoned with. She’ll probably be at the top of the scoreboard by the first few episodes!

• Joe Lycett: Joe is the master of the unexpected. I’ve been watching him for a while now, and the guy’s just a whirlwind of energy and creativity, I'm expecting some chaotic brilliance. I bet he’ll try to bend the rules and get away with it. The guy’s a rule-bender!

• Richard Herring: This veteran comedian is a legend! I wasn't familiar with his earlier work, but he's a master of observational comedy. He's likely to bring a unique perspective and a whole lot of dry humor to the table. He seems like he’s gonna do really well.

My Biggest Taskmaster Blunder (and What I Learned)

I'll never forget my attempt at recreating a Taskmaster challenge at home. It involved building something ridiculously complex out of household items. My creation? Let's just say it looked less like a functional device and more like a mangled bird’s nest. It was a total disaster!

The takeaway? Simplicity is key. Don't overthink the tasks. Sometimes, the most straightforward approach is the most effective. Also, read the instructions carefully – I learned that the hard way! I also learned that you need to find the most efficient path to succeed.

Pro Tip: Before attempting any DIY task, grab your phone, and find a few YouTube videos to get an idea about your own project. That’s what I would have done if I had a phone when I attempted that challenge.

What to Expect from Season 19

This season looks set to be another wild ride. The lineup is diverse, the comedians are all incredibly talented, and I'm already anticipating the hilarious fails and unexpected successes. Seriously, just get ready for some amazing TV. Are you excited for the new season? Let me know in the comments what you think! Who do you think will win?
