Review of Ted Lasso

Ted Lasso (2020–2023)
10/10
Simply outstanding.

Absolutely love this series, the best comedy/drama series since Entourage.

Not sure whether it's because I relate so well to the football back story or the Ted Lasso character who's just so likeable.

The football language/terminology is spot on (with the exception of the the use of 'tie' instead of 'draw' in a a match result) that they must have British writers involved.

Season 2, which has rated lower, moves towards character development & has less football stories but is still very strong. That's fine, the show's called Ted Lasso not Richmond AFC.

Season 2 also relies less on repeating the US/UK culture clash that is Ted Lasso, that would end up being boring anyway.

Even the worst episode in the first two seasons (season 2 episode 9) is still better the the best of a lot of other shows.

Worth signing up to Apple TV+ for the 7 day trial just to binge watch this one show.
