Spoilers "Ted Lasso" Discussion Thread (May Contain Spoilers)

[sjsharksfan12]

I was worried that if the team lost, this show would end on a depressing note, but I did not feel depressed afterwards. I think it was Ted's Do You Believe in Miracles Speech, and then the one that got me was the At least you're not sad and alone speech. That last speech actually did hit me hard, mainly this year where people are sad and alone. It just felt like that speech was more upbeat than it should have been, and I think it's a credit to the tone of the show and Jason's delivery of it that made this episode really really great. Also, the last scene with Ted and Rebecca and the water was hilarious.

I'm not going to rewatch the season now, but maybe around the Holidays I will rewatch this season. I said last week that this show reminded me a little of The Good Place, and I think now that the season is done, this might go down as my favorite new show of 2020. In such a down year, a show like this was needed and welcome.

Can't wait for tonight! and Can't wait for Season 2! Was it filmed back to back? If so we should see it soon I hope!

 

[Corsig]

One of the best shows I've watched in a long time. When you get invested in several characters the writers and actors have done their job. Very cleverly written

 

[Matthew9559]

This was such a fantastic show. Wow. Can’t wait for season 2!

I was reading an article about how quick Netflix is to cancel their shows. A lot of the comments centered on ending shows to early or letting them drag on too long. All of that got me thinking about how many more seasons we may get of Ted Lasso.

I really, really (really) enjoyed the show, but I think it only needs 2 more seasons to tell the story, based on Ted’s “To Do” list from the last episode.

Spoiler: Ted’s To Do List

1)Get Promoted and 2)Win the whole dang thing

I partially say this because it’s a Bill Lawrence (of Scrubs fame) show, and I think that show went on for about 3-4 seasons too many.

So if the Emmy nominations come out in late July, do we think that this show having debuted pretty much a year earlier hurts its chances come awards season?

 

[CTHarrryH]

I think it is a lot better than Schitt'$ that won them all this year

I think it is a lot better than Schitt'$ that won them all this year

I so agree. Although I like some of the stuff Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara have done in the past, I just couldn't get into Schitt's Creek.

Only just signed up to Apple TV via apple one sub, this is the first show I started to watch, brilliant and light hearted fun comedy, needed something like this to cheer me up with all the doom and gloom in the world currently.

I’m surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I binge watched the entire season today. Can’t wait for season 2.

 

[Neonblue]

Oh god. I just binged all ten episodes today. SO (unexpectedly) GOOD!

I’m putting this out there, this is the best show on TV+ by a mile.

It is a shame it will only be 3 seasons. I hope Apple will make it available for purchase.

Watched last week, best thing I saw on TV + without question. Servant has potential but I need to see what they're doing with S2.

 

[MBAir2010]

I thought the first episode was trite, immature and nitwitted.
the story plot was rehashed too many times last century and the acting and cinematography was too fast.

i am still a very nice person, loves and protects the planet and uses many apple products.

I'm not sure what the point of saying this is. You don't need to attempt to defer or defend every criticism you make that relates to Apple's properties. Your opinion is just as valid as those that would bash your comment. If people really want to pick from that bone they probably shouldn't be regarded anyway...

 

[Deguello]

I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect, but it’s one of my favorite current shows from any source and my favorite Apple TV+ show by far.

Some of the good lines and scenes have been mentioned, but I’ll throw in the curse breaking scene. Easily could‘ve been over done but wasn’t.

Also supposed hard ass Roy knowing the lyrics to Let It Go because of his niece.

 

[hagar]

It’s a nice, light hearted comedy with a very predictable feel-good story line, over the top caricatures and some childish humour. For me, it’s slightly better than mediocre thanks to the naive, optimistic spirit of Jason

It’s great however that ATV+ has some comedy to offer besides drama and documentaries.

 

[qoop]

The gold standard for all things football has to be Roy of the Rovers. And Ron 'Jumpers For Goalposts' Manager from The Fast Show.

 

[thenetstud]

A great show with a lot of positivity. Exactly what I needed during this pandemic. Can’t wait for more seasons!

Loads more Ted coming up!

 

[Donovan2020]

Great comedy meets feel-good. Rare mix, and turned out incredible. Best recent TV series by a long shot.

 

[Bluetoot-]

Started watching since they announced Season 2; said “what the hell”; might as well give Apple TV another shot. Not a bad show; it’s funny. Not exhilarating either.
One gripe; there’s very little football in this show about a football team. I expect a little more sports comedy; the middle of the season is a lot of hooking up and drama. Gotta have I guess, but Ted is an unconventional coach; let’s see some unconventional coaching.

I think that's what I like about it. It's more of a behind the scenes of the team, about Ted having to adapt to life in England and the people having to put up with him. If you've seen 30 Rock, I think Ted Lasso borrows a lot from 30 Rock, being the show about the show rather than showing the TV show itself.
