Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe celebration dance that Jason Sudeikis does, as Ted Lasso, with his team is the same dance he does in the SNL segment "What's Up With That".
- GoofsIt is believed that Ted would not be allowed to coach a Premier League team without a proper UEFA license, which someone would not be eligible for without prior experience. However, the UEFA does allow for temporary "caretaker managers" on short notice when a manager is abruptly dismissed, quits, or is unable to continue. Richmond's existing coach gets sacked by Rebecca after training for the season had already started.
- Quotes
Ted Lasso: Hey, how y'all doin'? I'm Ted Lasso, your new coach. You must be Ms. Welton.
Rebecca Welton: Please, call me Rebecca. Ms. Welton's my father.
Ted Lasso: If that's a joke, I love it. If not, I cannot wait to unpack that with ya.

9.45/10, Already This Good?
I enjoyed this episode alot. I am already most likely going to start recommending this show to the athletic boys at my school since most of them watch All American. Anyways, my favorite characters in this episode were Ted, Rebecca, and Coach Beard. My favorite things about this episode were the Dialogue, the storyline, and the pacing, especially the pacing. This isn't perfect or anything, but this is definitely very funny, enjoyable, and well-written. I mostly love the side characters in this show so far, and I am excited to see what this show has in store for me later on in the series. I am pretty sure there will be lots of 10's that will be rated for me personally since I already rated this episode very high.
