It's that American comedy series disease where characters are allowed to be funny for about 3 episodes in the first series and then everyone has to develop schmaltzy soft sides which grow to dominate every other aspect of the show, including the humour.

schmaltzy is a great word mate, had to look that up

Ted Lasso is free advertising for the league so I can see why it doesn't need to cost too much to get some usable match footage. I guess they'll mainly be doing CGI over Crystal Palace highlights?

Hope they employ the same method as Dream Team, with the really crudely colour-swapped kits for long shots and then closeups of players very obviously at a non-league club zoomed in tight so you can't see past the 20 extras making up the "crowd".

I’d love a Dream Team reboot. I didn’t catch the final series but iirc they had some bonkers plotlines like snipers in the rafters and a player hanging themselves in the changing room.

There’s a decent vfx breakdown for how they’ve done the crowd shots. For a lot of the big stadium scenes you’re watching 25 people replicated really well.

gently caress that, we need a live action Roy Of The Rovers. The 80s ones where Roy got shot in the hair and they got hijacked and bombed (separate incidents) and Spandau Ballet turned out for them.

Dream Team was great, it could be kinda realistic sometimes. The scenes where the players would invite their teammates to watch them having sex. The goalkeeper being shot by the SWAT team.
