some season 2 ted lasso thoughts

Crossed fingers, I seem to be doing better. I am still feeling pretty sick in the first part of the day, but improving as the day goes on. And sleeping a lot. I am glad for the company of my parents and the dogs. Sally (my parents' dog) is a little shit sometimes but she is only 2 years old, heh. On the agility competition we watched, they call cross-breds "all American" which is cute. Sally can be an all-American little shit. 😆

I'm watching Ted Lasso with my dad, and I think he's gotten more into the show now that we are in season 2.

here be spoilers through the beginning of season 3.

Please watch Ted Lasso and talk about it with me.

Every day I'm thinking about how good a TV show Ted Lasso is.

It is available on Apple TV.

This 10-episode comedy could so easily have gone too far into caricature, but instead made the people feel real. Rebecca is not a cartoon villain; Ted is not a cartoon hero. Often characters like the journalist (Trent Crimm, the Independent) are ones you expect to feel one way about, but then your feeling towards them changes.

People are adults who confront their problems. The humor is warm. The message is simply: Believe. Believe in other people, build them up. See the goodness in others and cultivate it. But hold others accountable too.

If you are put off by sports, know that this is more of a work place comedy. Their work happens to be football/soccer. But we don't have to endure a whole lot of actual soccer in this.

Spoilers below the cut - just random things i liked.

This show achieves A LOT in 10 short episodes, and that's partly because it doesn't drag out problems the way some shows do. People act and resolve things.

In short, please watch this show so I can talk about it with you.
