I'm hearing good things about Ted Lasso. Is it actually good?

Watched the first three today and came here to post about it. It’s a drat fine, absolutely genuine show. Bummed they only dropped the first three and not all 10.

 Looks like the first episode of the new season of THE MORNING SHOW dropped, too.

For some reason, I was expecting that on the 24th. (Which as I found out, is actually when FOUNDATION drops!)

Watching the third episode of Shrinking now, and yeah i think I like this show. Segel's a great sad sack and the show's funny when it wants to be. Though it mostly doesn't want to be -- there's an entire three minute scene in this episode where there's exactly one joke, and that's Michael Urie saying the word "cornhole". So yeah, it's on the drama end of the dramedy scale, closer to something like Casual. (Which is fine, I really liked Casual.)

On a more high falutin level, I'd say the show "suffers" from not having a particularly strong concept behind it; it's really about a loose tangle of people who happen to be in each other's orbits rather than a show about a shrink and his patients, or whatever. But I think that just means it's a more traditional, low-concept set-up, something I'm not used to seeing on screen that much anymore. I like that too.

So what I'm saying is that this was entirely not what I expected, but now I've got a better sense of what it's like I'm far more into it.

I second all of this. Also, who would’ve thought that Indiana Jones and a former Daily Show correspondent would’ve been one of the more compelling on screen duos?
