* CreatorsOddball: Creator/FreddieHighmore was a surprising pick for US Taskmaster given his aversion to appearing on comedy-focused programs in general. However, his performance showed he was a surprisingly good pick for the program.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Creator/ComedyCentral gave the show a half-hour slot, meaning that the prize task had to be trimmed down into an individual prize submission, less time was spent on studio segments, and team tasks were cut entirely. This meant that there were fewer opportunities for the contestants' to riff and argue during episodes, removing one of the major charms of the original. After all this, Comedy Central decided to burn off the episodes two at a time, anyway, meaning that there was space in the schedule for hour-long episodes, but the channel didn't want to give it, at first.
