Mirthmaster was largely inspired by the hilarious UK game show, Taskmaster,* where five comedians compete against each other in a series of ridiculous and surprising challenges, and are judged most soundly by the show's dictatorial judge, the Task Master himself.
While we don't have the budget (or the in-person capabilities) of the original, the spirit of the show remains: it's all about some friendly competition, ridiculous tasks, and a whole lot of fun.
If you're looking for inspiration (and an endless supply of laughs), check out a few clips from Taskmaster below.
