Ivo picking 42 and 4:20 was not lost on me

there was a point an episode or two ago when Frankie hit 69 points and you can just see the internal 'heh', too

Alex Horne doesn't know how to eat a hot dog:

Alex and food have a weird relationship. His off menu menu was so strange and I'm not sure he was joking about it.

Everyone's reaction to Frankie talking about "co-pilot syndrome" and a plane crash was a top moment

Frankie might honestly be my favorite contestant this season, both for the studio banter and the team dynamic with Ivo. And when he messes up, he messes up in a spectacular fashion - see Big Scottish Dog.

I wonder if having spent a day doing team tasks with him and gotten used to him is why Ivo seems to be the only contestant able to retort his Scottish sarcasm.

I think it just really helps that Frankie's comedic style is 'gleeful aggression' and Ivo's is 'passive-aggressive self-deprecation'. They're a pretty natural double act.

Ivo's done a pretty decent amount of panel show rounds, so he's practiced at dealing with that kind of banter. MikeJF fucked around with this message at 19:43 on May 14, 2023 |

I dunno, I didn't get any meanness from it. The contestants who had to imitate Jenny and Alex had it easy. I actually felt more sorry for Jenny there. Chas McGill fucked around with this message at 21:23 on May 14, 2023 |

I have no clue how I would imitate Mae's walk. Let alone how I would make a comedy bit out of a walk that is not especially odd or memorable.

C4 should do a travel show where it's Frankie and Ivo being forces to spend time together.

Sudden Loud Noise posted:I have no clue how I would imitate Mae's walk. Let alone how I would make a comedy bit out of a walk that is not especially odd or memorable. Their frequent look of earnest concern bordering on mild panic is about the only thing that comes to mind, but that's not really a "walk" per se. That just reminded me of their incredibly confused expression when Alex spoke in their voice. We had to pause the TV for a while to finish laughing after that one.

Yeah Mae is just aggressively normal, idk how I would do it either.

The only way I can think to walk like Mae is to put my head forward and take small steps. Like how can you do this in a easily identifiable way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok1aoO1cj2k&t=5s

I think his look of frustration was more about the task design. Let's face it hardly anyone has a distinctively funny walk. Ivo found the only funny way to do his one and I don't think Frankie could have done the same after "chairgate" last week.

# ? May 15, 2023 08:39 |

Frankie probably could've done Ivo running around holding his head in agony and confusion
|
# ? May 15, 2023 09:15 |

Yeah, sure, but he wasn't gonna throw the episode like Ivo did because he had a shot at winning.

They lucked out on Jenny getting picked twice because she's definitely the one with the most distinctive way of moving about.
|
# ? May 15, 2023 10:18 |

Yeah, and it's possible to mime Alex pretty easily (and you don't have to care about hurting his feelings like you do with everyone else because lolalex)

The "don't crack the egg" was also bad task design IMO. It's a great visual and auditory gag, but the answer to "How are they supposed to do this?" is either "Move the dot" or "Hear the scary noise and guess."

People don’t appreciate that TM is so huge over in the UK that people run illegal street competitions. Curiously, Alex is still the assistant. I found the remains of such a task this morning.

Okay, I'm on board now. Doesn't even matter who's the assistant, and who's the taskmaster.

# ? May 16, 2023 12:03 |

I feel like there's going to be a very different dynamic if those two are the hosts. Which is good, it means they're not just trying to replicate the standard taskmaster formula but with less swears.

I feel like Rose is going to be the TM. I’ve previously said it would probably be a woman, and with this pairing, I’ll call that a definite.

The article says Rose is TM and Mike the assistant.
