No wonder that Bill Lawrence is an executive producer. See. This is why you’re my friend, pal. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Pyfish+ 2,773 Posted November 29, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted November 29, 2021 And I'm finished with both seasons! Can't wait for the third one whenever it comes out. The final shot of the last episode pissed me off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,605 Posted December 8, 2021 Moderator Share Posted December 8, 2021 I'm almost through season 2. Man, what a series. Never seen an actor like Jason Sudeikis who plays Ted Lasso being so good at looking sad. He has some real vulnerable and sad moments in Season 2.

Bluewolf 7,161 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Just finished Season 1 What a really great show this is... Funny, quick and heart breaking in places.. I love how they manage to deal with sadder aspects of the show without dwelling on them too much which keeps the whole thing moving at a good pace, For a show that only last 30 minutes it sure feels longer when you are watching each episode which shows how much they seem to cram in to the time.. Top quality, can't wait to start watching the second Season 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ 2,547 Posted December 9, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted December 9, 2021 Just finished off episode 5. The one thing I have to say is the writing is fantastic. I dont know what I expected entirely but the little quips and on the nose jokes are really well done and flushed out... alot of little subtle humour on top. The rest of the characters already seem like their shaping up really well but surprisingly one of my favs through the first half here is Keely... shes great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted December 9, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted December 9, 2021 I was skeptical at the start as I fully expected it to be a tacky comedy with silly annoying jokes, but damn they really got the balance spot on. It's funny but not hysterical, and there are enough nuances that balance the comedy out with some serious, relatable stuff. I also love the characters; especially the fact that it's not one-dimensional caricatures, even the ones with exaggerated quirks. Really, really well done. I'm on Season 2 Episode 10 now, and the previous episode is the only one that I didn't particularly care for. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still had it's moments though, and it was a bit sad in the end. How Beard is kinda stuck in this toxic relationship. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it was the weakest one for me so far, and I even found myself fast-forwarding a few times, which doesn't usually happen to me. In a way, it reminded me of that Westworld "genre" sequence which I also didn't care for. I think I would have enjoyed it a lot more if there was another storyline in the episode too; 30 minutes of solely Beard in a weird feverish state was a bit too much for my liking; just all over the place. I did enjoy the pub trio having a good night out though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,605 Posted December 9, 2021 Moderator Share Posted December 9, 2021 Just finished Season 2. Nate can fuck off. Little ungrateful prick.. But god, I love this series. I was a huge Scrubs fan, because it was such a good mixture of comedy and heavy things, and I never thought I'd find another series that is so good at balancing those things. But Ted Lasso, where football is the subject is an extra bonus. wow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Ted Lasso, where football is the subject is an extra bonus. wow. Just finished Season 2 as well. Yeah, Nate's a massive cunt. I get the whole "hurt people hurt other people" schtick, and I think the show creators absolutely nailed the character profile of someone with a lot of insecurities who used to get absolutely no recognition or respect from anyone, and then suddenly get thrusted into a position of having some authority and become power-hungry. But I absolutely hate people like that I wonder how that turns out next season... Looks like Nate will be the main villain; it's good as the show needed a proper one after Rebecca had a change of heart. When is Season 3 supposed to come out? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ 2,547 Posted December 15, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted December 15, 2021 Just finished episode 8, 2 more to go in season 1. It just keeps getting better. One tidbit I thought for sure the boss Hannah Waddingham's voice was dubbed in the karaoke bit. Turns out thats 100% her signing voice...even more impressive. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was obvious that it's her voice. She's listed as an actress/singer on Wikipedia as well. Apparently she did some musicals in the past as well. Some people are just unfairly talented. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toinho 2,210 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Season 1 much better than season 2. However, I still was glued to the TV/computer screen, when watching! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She started her career on the West End - she's incredibly talented tbh.
