chronically online and obsessed with James Acaster

"every triangle is a love triangle when you love triangles"

Having seen both James and Nish on the Fwends podcast, I desperately need an Ed-pisode to complete the trilogy.

(spoilers under the cut)

And also because Nish and James picked each other as their forever friends, and the inherent comedy of Ed having to pick one of them, and not having it officially reciprocated is hilarious to me.

taskmaster off season begins which naturally leads to pretending other interests exist until you give up and start that inevitable rewatch

Stanning a comedian (especially one not from your country who most people have not heard of) is weird because how do I explain to my friends that I need a 10 min break in the middle of the day to livestream a TV broadcast from Scotland to hear someone answer generic questions that I probably already know the answers to

Who needs Acaster on social media when we have Nish Kumar providing us with such quality content 🤭

Just reading this article and roughly reflecting on how I am truly loving this show and how it’s developing !! I had no idea the concept originally came from a TV show idea.

No spoilers but as well as showcasing classic Acaster writing it has made me reflect so much on the idea of creativity and perception.

I think it is seriously on track to be one of my favourite Acaster shows which is saying a lot because I think I can recite Repertoire back to front and CLHM1999 is one of the best written shows ever in my humble opinion.

I saw it in North America so it was a slightly stripped down version of the show but so many of the bits are still playing in my head months later. Also, based on what I am seeing online the set design and opener details are amazing and hilarious! I am dying to see how much the show evolves before it’s recorded.

If you have not seen the show and get the chance please go see James Acaster Live !!

My favourite James Acaster thing is seeing him properly call people out and going into defence mode when someone says something stupid.

My second favourite James Acaster thing is seeing James about to go into defence mode and backing out when he realizes it’s okay.

James going on reality TV shows after what happened on Bake Off feels like a recession indicator

[driedapricots1999]

I will always be excited for more James on TV but every time I get flashbacks to house of games and just pray that everyone is nice and kind and he just has a good time.

The current Off Menu series is ending this week.

Ed Gamble/Matthew Crosby Radio X show is ending this weekend.

Only two more episodes of the Taskmaster Podcast.

This is a logistical nightmare for my podcast rotation 😭😭😭

[justkellme]

I think it says a lot about the kind of show that Ed Gamble and Matthew Crosby have that I had to pause the episode and actively google whether it was really being cancelled before I believed it. And I still won't be entirely convinced until they have their last episode.
