Ted Lasso
2020 · 3 Seasons · Apple TV+ · Comedy / Drama
Ted Lasso arrived at a time when television audiences were drowning in cynicism, and its relentless optimism felt like oxygen. The first two seasons deliver some of the warmest, funniest, and most emotionally intelligent comedy in recent memory, anchored by Jason Sudeikis and a deep ensemble that makes every character feel worth caring about. Season three's bloated episodes and scattered focus dull the momentum considerably, turning what could have been a perfect run into a good one with a disappointing final stretch. The show still lands more than it misses across 34 episodes, and at its best, it's the kind of television that actually makes you want to be a better person.
