Taskmaster Intro

Good evening and welcome to Taskmaster! My name is Louis Morissette, and I am the Taskmaster. The concept of this show... how can I explain it? Over the last few weeks, I've created a series of tasks to be completed by five beloved comedians. Together, we'll see what they did, and how they did it. As the Taskmaster, I'll dole out points to the most deserving contestant, as determined by subjective and ambiguous criteria. The overall winner of this season will take home the greatest prize in the history of television: a golden replica of my head!
