After thoroughly enjoying the first season of Ted Lasso I can simply not bear a second more of this new seasons WOKE leftist propaganda, it is in your face, grotesque and COMPLETELY unnecessary.

Sad to see Ted Lasso finally “jump the shark” and devolve into politically correct tropes. More importantly, our main character Ted, is just sleep walking through the series.

Somebody I care about loves this show. Unfortunately I cant share my feelings on Ted Lasso with them, so i will here. Absolute garbage.

Unfortunately I cant share my feelings on Ted Lasso with them, so i will here. Absolute garbage. My first complaint being that the show refuses to let any kind of tension exist. Corny on every account, and even worse it pretends to have some cutesy understanding of just how corny it is, but not any kind of awareness that would make someone in the writers room churn out an intriguing script. Every single conflict is resolved in five minutes, which ironically is so deeply unsatisfying. There can't be a single ounce of **** by a character, unless it's immediately explained by some tragedy in their backstory, which makes them completely forgivable. Obviously an amount of hyperbole is being used here. NPC characters, boring plot lines, hack jokes. Just an absolute zero on every account.… Expand

Used to be entertaining and even funny at times. Season 3 -- it's moralizing, tedious, and unimaginative. Too bad ...

Turns out the message of optimism in the face of adversity and positive male role models had to be replaced by diversity, identity politics and heavy handed moral preaching before it became too popular and inspirational to the masses.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So to recap: an English mens football team starts to succeed only after they reject masculinity, and the only characters that required or showed any personal growth over the three seasons were the straight white males.… Expand

C’est l’histoire d’un mec… ou plutôt d’un con, entraîneur de football amerloque qui va entraîner une équipe de (vrai) football au Royaume-Uni ; une équipe accessoirement composée de trous du cul d’ailleurs mais un con avec des trous de balle,C’est l’histoire d’un mec… ou plutôt d’un con, entraîneur de football amerloque qui va entraîner une équipe de (vrai) football au Royaume-Uni ; une équipe accessoirement composée de trous du cul d’ailleurs mais un con avec des trous de balle, ça fait toujours des étincelles !

Le format est quasiment celui d’une sitcom (situation comedy) mais sans les rires enregistrés et c’est un manquement assez grave ; à part ça, c’est constamment en dessous de la ceinture, volontiers vulgaire et surtout très, très con : une sous-série de débiles avec plein de golios dedans, écrite par des putains de trous du cul : voilà donc ce qu’on trouve sur… l’appeule tivi, bonjour les dégâts !

Une chose néanmoins ou plutôt une intéressante créature que je ne connaissais point mais qui vaut bien un point à ce sous-produit : Hannah Waddingham, une cougar anglaise blonde pas désespérée et une sacrée bombasse en l’occurrence ! mais ça ne suffit pas pour nous faire tenir le coup dans cette sitcom désespérante de connerie, hélas.… Expand

Ted Lasso, a beloved sports comedy series that initially captured our hearts with its uplifting and endearing story, took a disheartening turn in its third season. What started as a promising and feel-good show gradually devolved into a messTed Lasso, a beloved sports comedy series that initially captured our hearts with its uplifting and endearing story, took a disheartening turn in its third season. What started as a promising and feel-good show gradually devolved into a mess of convoluted plotlines and questionable choices, leaving dedicated fans like myself feeling deeply disappointed.

The first two seasons of Ted Lasso showcased a unique blend of humor, heart, and character growth. Jason Sudeikis' portrayal of the optimistic and affable Ted Lasso brought warmth to the screen, and the supporting cast added depth to the narrative. Unfortunately, the third season failed to uphold the standard set by its predecessors, stumbling into a series of missteps that ultimately tarnished the show's charm.

One of the major issues with the third season of Ted Lasso was the excessive focus on certain plotlines, specifically the inclusion of three homosexual storylines and a woke immigration plotline. While diversity and representation are vital in storytelling, it felt as if the writers were ticking boxes rather than creating organic and well-developed narratives. These storylines appeared forced, lacking the authenticity and depth that the show had initially demonstrated.

The overcrowding of plotlines also contributed to the downfall of the season. Instead of honing in on the core characters and building upon their established arcs, the show attempted to juggle too many storylines simultaneously. This resulted in a lack of focus and character development, leaving viewers disconnected from the emotional journeys they had invested in during the previous seasons.

Additionally, the once-heartfelt humor seemed to lose its sincerity, replaced by contrived and forced attempts at comedy. The witty and clever writing that made the show stand out was noticeably absent, replaced with shallow and predictable jokes that failed to land.

It is disheartening to witness a series that started with such promise spiral into mediocrity. Ted Lasso's third season failed to deliver on the expectations set by its earlier success. Instead of evolving and deepening its characters and narratives, it regressed, relying on superficial plotlines and lazy humor.

In conclusion, the third season of Ted Lasso missed the mark on several fronts. The excessive focus on certain plotlines, the overcrowding of narratives, and the decline in genuine humor all contributed to its downfall. As a devoted fan of the show, it is disappointing to witness such a regression. Hopefully, the creators will take note of the criticisms and find a way to recapture the magic that made Ted Lasso so special in the first place.… Expand

Ted Lasso is like Forrest Gump on a soccer pitch, and every bit as insulting. If Lasso is such a naive, simple-minded idiot, there's no way he'd be competent enough to get hired for, much less carry out, the jobs he's doing. And if he's soTed Lasso is like Forrest Gump on a soccer pitch, and every bit as insulting. If Lasso is such a naive, simple-minded idiot, there's no way he'd be competent enough to get hired for, much less carry out, the jobs he's doing. And if he's so subtly wise, his naive, simple-minded persona is just a cynical act. Either way, he's less a character than a cheap means of generating hokey sound-bites and manipulating audiences (and, apparently, awards voters). Also, he's a multi-millionaire (what notable college or pro coach isn't these days?), but that seemingly has no bearing on his life. Because that wouldn't be quite as charming, would it? The other characters are developed only so much as is necessary for the next ridiculously implausible subplot. The show is like a Richard Curtis movie without Hugh Grant-- or any of the wit, spontaneity, or verve. How many down-home, aw-shucks, salt-of-the-earth happy idiots do you know who offhandedly quote Walt Whitman? Yeah, me neither.… Expand

GARBAGE. How does anyone enjoy this show, it blows my mind. This might be the corniest show of all time. I got forced fed happiness and cheesy white people humor for 10 episodes I'm out
