Series 16 of Taskmaster (UK) starts Thursday! Even better, they announced they'll be uploading the full episodes on their YouTube channel the day after airing.

They have also been catching up on their backlog of the old seasons on YouTube. The finale of series 15 should be uploaded tomorrow.

For anyone who didn't binge through the whole thing during COVID, the writers/actors strikes are a good chance to do it now.

Not a series recommendation, but a cool list of great TV episodes:

^Thanks for sharing. It's a big foggy in what is called a "stand alone" episode. Very subjective considering "bottle" and "departure" episodes qualify but not all of them. Comedies should have an easier time making the list than dramas.

For comedies would add Charlie Work from It's Always Sunny. For dramas am surprised no Mad Men episode made the list given the stand alone nature of their episodes.

Interestingly they put College over Pine Barrens for Sopranos but both are great.

Started watching "House of the Dragon". I'm three episodes in and I'm finding it really enjoyable. It reminds me of the early seasons of Game of Thrones before things took a turn for the worse.

The final season of Sex Education is out now, which is bittersweet because I love the show but teenagers shouldn't have laugh lines.

Enjoying season 3 of The Morning Show more than season 2. Now that it's sort of broken passed it's original premise and moved into more of a corporate intrigue thing, it feels a bit fresher.

Yeah the last season totally lost its way and made me wonder why it even existed. I’ll be curious what you say after a few more episodes. I like Jon Hamm but think I’ll wait a bit before giving it another chance.

I'm liking this season of Only Murders in the Building (is it the final season?). It's kind of a throwback, and I get some Schitt's Creek vibes, perhaps for obvious reasons given the SCTV connections. I know Selana can't really act, but the character is well written for her. And just when Martin Short starts annoying me again, he dials it back a little.

Definitely recommend, “I Have Nothing”. I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. The callbacks to the ‘88 Olympics; getting into the nitty gritty of skating and choreography. I can’t get the damn song out my head now.

So the first 3 episodes of GenV dropped yesterday and it was pretty good.

Will there be a fourth season of Mr Inbetween?
Unfortunately, it has been confirmed by lead actor and writer, Scott Ryan, that Mr Inbetween has come to its natural end.

Speaking to News.com.au in 2021, the talented Australian revealed he was ready to close the chapter after the third season.

“I’m still getting better as a writer and as an actor. This was my first professional gig, but I feel like I haven’t hit my stride yet,” he told the publication.

“The best is down the road and that’s exciting.”

^^ and he hasn't been in anything before or since. Sometimes if an actor finds a successful role they should stick with it.
