Ted Lasso

Every now and then the show would start to get a little shmaltzy for me and start to lose me, but then it would hit with some quality slapstick like the coach with the short shorts hanging dong after getting shoved.
 
I LOVED season 1but I had some issues with season 2 and especially with season 3. I felt like so many plot and character developments just started happening off screen and characters would get introduced without any real payoff (imo).

I think they nailed the finale though.

I will say that no matter how many issues started popping up (for me), the show would always deliver a great moment that would pull me back in, make me feel something, and keep me going. They had a very high hit rate as far as that was concerned.

And like I said, very good finale.
 
I've mentioned before that one of my favorite things to do is watch movies with a little age on them and see where I can identify successful actors with minor parts before they were famous.

I watched Horrible Bosses 2 again recently, and check out who's in the therapy group.

 
In the words of the man himself, "Stay curious, not judgemental."

I'll watch it because I like the show and trust that the writers and actors will know how to continue the story. But, I have to say that I thought they wrapped up the show well at the end of season 3. It was a satisfying ending. I just hope that they either warp it up satisfyingly again or keep the show going indefinitely.
 
As Deadline reported exclusively last week, Season 4 of Ted Lasso will kick off in Kansas where the first episode will film. It may also be where the new actor playing Henry gets to show off his soccer talents.

It is believed that the required soccer proficiency was a reason behind the new casting search for the role. Turner has been invited to audition, so he could conceivably end up continuing as Henry, I hear. (It is TBD whether Anders will reprise her role in the upcoming season.)

As Deadline reported, locked in so far as cast members for Season 4 are Sudeikis — also Ted Lasso co-creator, executive producer and co-showrunner — Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca), Brett Goldstein (Roy) and Jeremy Swift (Leslie), with Juno Temple (Keeley) in negotiations to join them. Ted Lasso co-creator Brendan Hunt (Coach Beard) doesn’t have an acting deal yet but has been working as writer/executive producer alongside fellow writers/executive producers Sudeikis and Goldsetin on scripts for the new season.

Little is known about the storylines in the new season beyond the basic premise — Ted coaching the AFC Richmond’s women’s team that Keeley and Rebecca hatched in the Season 3 finale. It also is unclear whether Henry will remain in Kansas or go to live with his dad in the U.K., expanding the role from the first three seasons. What is known is that Henry has inherited some of his father’s quirks, making the duo fun to watch together...........
