Winner of 11 Emmy awards including two for Outstanding Comedy Series, Ted Lasso is an American football coach hired to manage a British soccer team; what he lacks in knowledge, he makes up for in optimism, determination and biscuits. The third and final season starts March 15 on Apple TV+ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IR9yjn7Lkdg Cast Jason Sudeikis as Ted Lasso, an American college football coach who is hired to coach AFC Richmond, an English soccer team. He is frequently ridiculed for his folksy optimism and inexperience with the sport, but gradually wins people over through his kind and compassionate approach to coaching. Hannah Waddingham as Rebecca Welton, the new owner of AFC Richmond. Kind yet vindictive, she initially hires Lasso to sabotage the team, but eventually comes to appreciate him. Brett Goldstein as Roy Kent, a veteran box-to-box midfielder, captain and later assistant coach of AFC Richmond. Juno Temple as Keeley Jones, an ambitious model who becomes the club's manager of marketing and public relations. Jeremy Swift as Leslie Higgins, the timid but playful Director of Football Operations. Brendan Hunt as Coach Beard, Lasso's grounded, laconic longtime assistant and friend. Nick Mohammed as Nathan Shelley, the team's former kit man turned assistant coach, who is now head coach at West Ham United.

Yeah I watched it a second time when my mom wanted to see it. It was good and any complaints about the "extra" episodes that don't move the season forward are no longer relevant when you binge. Also this was over Christmas so the Christmas episode fit well.

Great start to the season. I'm loving Nate's arc. Still the little child obsessed with Twitter trying to act big. Bouncing from zero confidence to 100 and back again. I also love that assistant who clearly has no respect for him. Meanwhile Ted (thanks to his team and son) has the right attitude on Nate by the end of the episode. Ted is still supportive which drives Nate mad. "Poopeh"

Yes. It's even a thing that some teams will consistently bounce between promotion and relegation because the extra money they get from the Premier league allows them to spend more to be better than other Championship teams but not better than teams that are in the Premier league all the time. That said there is usually some differences in predictions on who is going to be dead last.

Will is a much better kitman than Nate. "What's a CD?" And cowering in the boot room while Jamie and Roy talked. Speaking of... Jamie going to Roy to comfort him over the breakup (and even attempt a hug) was a huge bit of growth.

Another great episode. Zava constantly blocking Ted in the locker room Will: “I’m 25” Jamie is getting smarter Jesus Christ Superstar was a great choice LOL at Zava’s tattoo. Not sure how I feel about the psychic stuff Several weeks must have passed and unfortunately Ted hasn’t gotten over his wife seeing the doctor Maybe Sassy can snap him out of it Happy to see Colin get some plot… even if it might not turn out happy for him

EL BROMANCE posted:The ’shite in nineing armor’ bit is waived off as a joke mishearing of ‘knight in shining armor’… but Jamie Tartt is definitely a bit of a shite and happens to play number 9. Ugggggg. You're right but I really don't want another story about Rebecca dating her much younger employees.

People on AV Club mentioned they thought Trent was gay based on a scene from a previous season. If that’s the case his reaction to Colin is probably going to be a lot different than if he was just chasing a big story.

Scott Forstall posted:That was a weird loving episode, especially the first half. There are 38 EPL matches per team. You can't show them all in one season of TV. It seems like this is the turning point (or classic climax story arc). Things were going well but everything has now fallen apart.

Macdeo Lurjtux posted:She's going to come back with STRFKR being a hugely successfull app, and just as she's about pit Keeley out of business she gets a C&D from the band. Setting up a bizzaro-Ted Lasso spin off where every role is just the opposite of their AFC Richmond counterpart. Call it Nate Shelley. Features a coach with no self confidence, a cruel boss, and an insane PR person. Also Zava as the player turned coach anti-Roy role.

"So mom, what was I saying? Oh yeah I met a nice couple who invited me to have a threesome." This commenter at the AV Club nailed it, I think: quote:The plots might all feel disconnected, but I think that Ted and Beard laid out the structure of this episode and most of the season pretty well with the triangle talk. Total Football is the story structure they’re using this season. Keep the characters constantly moving, switch their roles around, divide them up into groups but have the stories touch and overlap in places and create new connections between each other. Baron von der Loon posted:As someone living in the Netherlands, this episode just felt surreal. So many accents. I had actually expected more "Dutch are so straightforward" jokes. The same person also noted: quote:

I love the little detail that Zava was also only at Ajax for half a season.

Yeah lots of little details they nailed this episode. BTW the pillow fight was a callback to season one. quote:Ted: All right, fellas, we got team meal in an hour. After that, it’s either gonna be movie night or a pillow fight. What’s it gonna be this time around?

The Effiel Tower is just a lamp post with a publicist. Edit: Pulling out the big bucks for music. That song probably cost more than most TV show's entire season budgets. Zero One fucked around with this message at 02:50 on May 3, 2023 |

Roy's press conference was really good. Also Will continues to be the best. "Seagulls are wretched creatures. They’ll steal your car keys right off your beach towel." "It was worthwhile to meet you” and "He seems very wealthy and nice-like” Zero One fucked around with this message at 00:06 on May 11, 2023 |

SpiderLink posted:I think the deal there is that it's supposed to be jarring. The weird psycho manager bit is him putting on an act and he's uncomfortable with it but it's what he thinks this new father figure wants. Him backing out of the night out and going to Jade's signifies that he's not willing to embrace that part of himself because he finally sees what a shithead Rupert is. He didn't win over Jade by being a trash-talking alpha chad who spits on mirrors, and he recognizes that he should be the person she likes and not the person Rupert wants. Yeah it's pretty clear he is now certain on who he wants to be and it isn't the person Rupert wants.
