TV-14Synopsis
Taskmaster (2016), Season 2 — watch online on iFILM. Five episodes, same Greg Davies barking orders, but a fresh batch of comedians sweating over his impossible little jobs.
Stepping into the studio this time: Doc Brown, Joe Wilkinson, Jon Richardson, Katherine Ryan and Richard Osman. The season opens with a potato-throwing contest that nobody asked for, then moves through nursery-rhyme music videos — Richardson's Three Blind Mice is genuinely unsettling — winning over the actual Mayor of Chesham, and hiding a pineapple somewhere unlikely. Alex Horne still tallies every point and absorbs most of the abuse along the way. Scores climb episode by episode until Greg hands the trophy to a single champion.
This second run feels surer of itself than the first: the rules are settled, and a cast playing purely for pride produces the best failures. Stream Taskmaster Season 2 online on iFILM.
