The Cleaner (2021– )
5/10
Meh! Not worth your time.
18 October 2021
I was somewhat delighted when I watched the first episode. It has potential.

And then I watched the second, third, fourth, and fifth. Just to be sure.

I quite like Greg Davies. But apparently not his jokes. The guy has funny personality, but the jokes he made aren't just funny to me. So I thought that from the first episode, the show was going to a dark awkward humor. Apparently, I just missed the punchlines that were suppose to be funny/edgy. Not really sure.

And then the characters in each episode became more and more cliché full of stereotypes that are made by drunked college guys.

A repressed author. An active elderly woman. A confused woke vegan. And an influencer who don't know how the world works.

Cliché jokes with no creativity. Unless you don't watch a lot of comedies or don't socialize with people. You might find this funny.

Outsiders (2021– )

Scrapping the bottom barrels

The concept was poor. It can be great if the commedians are a little bit more witty.

David's lack of assertiveness doesn't work as a judge.

The participants/commedians desperately trying to create funny moments and intentionally screw up the tasks given. That's a pretty childish comedy.

Intentionally giving bad haircut to a girl while aware that she was quite upset to receive it (eventhough she volunteered)? Are we suppose to laugh at bullying act?

Taskmaster tasks are great because the participants at the very least trying to accomplish the tasks. And when they fail, it was fun.

I mean... what kind of laugh do you expect to get when they were given condoms as materials for comedy.

The host/judge doesn't have the right attitude.

The tasks are rubbish.

The contestants lack wits.

The delivery is weak.

Few comedy gems in the show but not good enough to keep me watching. I'll look forward to changes in series 2 if they'll recommission it. Probably won't.
