#DEATHBLART 2025 COMETH

I know that here on tumblr we're all massive fans of the panel show with a straight white male gremlin-like host in a suit that forces comedians to perform deranged and semi-random tasks for little-to-no reward, more often than not geared at conning, tricking, or humiliating the contestants in the process in a way that can sometimes border on kink, torture, and the fully absurd.

Britain has its offering:

America has its offering:

And so today I'd like to put forward my 'for your consideration' campaign for Australia and New Zealand's contribution to this important genre - Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee:

Now Miriam, I hear you say, what's so unhinged about a Spelling Bee?

And to that, I say, much as Taskmaster has its envelopes, and Gamechanger its opening monologue (there's really no common factor on this one), spelling is merely the vessel through which hijinks and borderline torture are inflicted upon a group of unsuspecting comedians.

Whether it's the ghosts of their own mistakes:

Good ol' impish trickery:

The breakdown of genuine friendships:

Or straight up physical and psychological torture:

This show really has it all!

So please tumblr, the next time you're looking to get your kicks from one of our favourite gremlins in suits torturing comedians, consider Guy Montgomery and his spelling shenanigans.

GUY MONTGOMERY'S GUY MONT-SPELLING BEE (AU) 03.06 - There's Always Time for Clock Man!

So Demi is on his third Spelling Bee episode and I guess to not have a repeat of last season (where one contestant did not rotate out for half the season) they've intro'd the Flagon of Futility.

He didn't get the word.

But as you can make up a lot of ground in the final Buzz Round, they did add another wrinkle:

And guess what?

He fucking won that shit again!

Now that Halloween is over, it’s officially Thanksgiving time. And you know what that means.
