Taskmaster New Zealand Season 5 drops from this Friday

For some reason I keep thinking there have been 4 series of TMNZ, so for a second I thought this was a brand new one.

FYI: At least series 4 is geoblocked in some countries. Likely it'll be the same again.

It's great, I wish Tofiga could have been in the studio, but they handled it well.

unpopular opinion: i do not like TMNZ.

don't get me wrong, some of the contestants are great fun to watch, indeed. but their Assistant and their Taskmaster are too weak a glue to hold the whole thing together.

even TMAU is preferable to me, personally, to TMNZ mainly because the chemistry between the two Toms is so much better.

Ah that's Abby down the bottom left! I was in the Dunedin Capping Show with her, she was recently on Conan - and Conan said they had to delete like, 15 minutes of A-Roll material because she was just so funny. Neat!
