Careful now.

Yeah in the bad old days here anything remotely mocking the church was banned.

It’s OK to use “would” when guessing about how someone might react to something. You can say, for example “Let’s give John Waters a surprise birthday party. I bet he would love it.”

Films have been banned for being too racist and not racist enough. D.W. Griffith’s pioneering The Birth Of A Nation is now considered an important piece of film history on technical merits (it’s widely considered the first full-length motion picture, and Griffith effectively invented the close-up and fade-out)

Was your grandpa ever Prime Minister of Australia?

I haven’t got it all worked out, but if Lalo knows Jimmy got ambushed then that means somebody saved Saul’s ass. When Lalo goes looking for someone to thank for saving Saul, none of his friends will say they did it. If Lalo pulls on that thread, it leads back to Mike and Gus, who are definitely not Lalo’s friends. So…

James Acaster refusing to acknowledge Alex throughout the show is one of the greatest recurring gags ever.

The Algorithm brought me taskmaster about six weeks ago. All Praise The Algorithm!

I love Taskmaster so much. It’s not often I’m in actual tears from laughing so hard, but this show consistently brings the gold. I’m a bit biased because I’ll watch pretty much anything either Noel Fielding or Joe Lycett/Hugo Boss are in, but think series four is my favorite so far. The team task involving the bathtub…

Such an amazing show.  Alex Horne is an amazing comedian in his brilliant ideas, but also his subversive take on the straight man role.  Some of the best tv there is.
You linked the exercise balls, but not the operatic, emotional roller-coaster in the same episode, the “throw this potato in the hole” task? Genuinely…

If you want to get a perfect sense for this show, watch the “Eat As Much Of A Watermelon As Possible In A Minute” task from Season 1, Episode 1. Unofficial not-super-quality link provided below.

Wow, an article about Taskmaster. What a delightful surprise! This is probably my favorite task:

Look, I get it: Gigi Goode is a Star. She’s going to win the season and there’s nothing us mortals can do about it. But holy shit in a season this strong they couldn’t spread the love a LITTLE and given it to Jan or Crystal? I’m glad it wasn’t Sherry winning her third challenge (though that’s presumably on the way)…

This “outed as a landlord” shit is annoying.

I clicked all the way through... and no toad in the hole!

Possibly. BCS hasn’t been as dark and heavy as BB. Kim getting offed would be the thing that bridges the gap in the tone of the two shows. That said the Saul we see in BB doesn’t seem like the kind of guy who unwittingly gets his wife whacked by the Mexican Cartel. I would think that would destroy him . . . making him…

I got a different vibe this episode. Kim seemed to realize the target she put on herself by coming to Lalo. Likewise, Mike’s conversation seemed to show Jimmy the danger he was putting Kim in by being a friend of the cartel and telling her about his business. At some point, Jimmy has to learn about Ed the Vacuum…

I caught that immediately that he didn't want to wear it.  Bad memories and all.

And he failed at what he was actually trying to do, which is to take out the bandit so they could steal his truck and his water. Flipping the car instead might’ve looked badass, but it was completely counterproductive.

If I had a time machine I would go back to those early B-52s shows. I can’t think of any other house party that could ever be that fun.
