Ep. 1: Episode 1 (2026-08-29)

In a race against time, armed with nothing more than their bizarre creativity and a few random objects, five comedians throw themselves into a series of absurd challenges. With sweat on their brows and chaos in their eyes, they try to score precious points, while Taskmaster Arjen Lubach, the unassailable supreme judge of laughter, along with his deadpan comedic right-hand man Diederik Smit, dissects and judges every bumbling performance. From inimitable logic to brilliant failures: everything counts in this crazy battle for eternal glory and an imaginary trophy.
