I don't know how this thing got 20 Emmy nominations. It's super boring. The acting is pretty bad. The plot is pedestrian and cliche. There's barely any jokes that are actually funny on any level. One of the worst tv shows I've watched in the past 2-3 years.

We had this discussion like last week if your not going to put in the work... Maybe this job isn't for you. I do hear that hcotc just quit his job so there's probably an opening.

It's loving terrible. I'm English living in the US and I've had numerous waiters / bartenders try and talk to me about it. The last guy asked if I watch it, I said I tried but I find the characters annoying and the writing isn't interesting, and then he paused and went on to talk about his favourite bits anyway like I said I was a huge fan.

The only time Ted Lasso was funny is when the tone of the show changed to make it a bit darker but they kept the old opening credits theme. So one of the episodes starts with the therapist getting run over and then immediately the theme song kicks in with "YEEEEAAAAAHHHHHH!"

I think the show is fun. Not everything needs to be a masterpiece and we all know awards are in-industry circlejerks anyway

OP you should bring this devastating critique of the show to TV IV, they need to hear this. GBS however will not appreciate the subtle intelligence in your argument, I'm afraid this will fall on deaf ears in these parts.

It's comfort viewing. Like when my wife wants to murder me because I'm rewatching The Office for the 500th time I can switch to Ted Lasso because at least it's "new" but still just as nonconfrontational and safe.

It’s just a more drawn-out version of Major League, right? I only watched the first episode and that was the vibe I got, so I just rewatched the Major League movies instead

How come they call it Ted Lasso when he never even uses a lasso? I don't even think lassos are common in soccer in europe yet

When my wife and I visited the UK we went to the pub in the show for lunch. It was best meal I had in the UK. I was much happier when the French leg of the trip started.

The hot secretary at my office is always sending me Ted Lasso gifs in the slack chat. I shoot a few back because I want to hit that in the supply closet but I live in fear of the day she asks me about my favourite episode. I'm not watching some feelgood limey soccer show for all the pussy in the world honestly

It's a show that has moments instead of episodes. I've seen every one, but since they rarely have a beginning, middle and end, no single episode really sticks in one's mind. The show just kind of continues episode to episode since it's meant to be binge watched. Just say the amsterdam episode is your favorite and you'll be in the clear.
