This week on TV: Reggie Watts is the Taskmaster

This week Reggie Watts will host one of the zaniest game shows that you will ever see. Beginning this Friday evening Taskmaster will make its debut on Comedy Central. Watts will co-host the game show with creator Alex Horne for a half-hour series based on the British game show of the same name. The idea of the show is easy, “five unwitting comedians as they compete against each other with creativity, cunning and genius in a series of stupefying tasks.” Those contestants? Kate Berlant, Lisa Lampanelli, Ron Funches, Freddie Highmore, and Dillon Francis are all set to compete on the show this season, winners will earn a trophy and the title of "ultimate champion" of Taskmaster. The show will premiere with back-to-back episodes this Friday night.
