Since it’s over probably, time for a .

I’m gonna try to note something from each episode that I hadn’t noticed before, or something notable in the total arc of the show.

S1E1: Beard and Ted pull up to Nelson Road stadium for the first time in a black Mercedes sedan, same car that Ted takes on his ride back to his ex’s house in Kansas in the finale.

S1E3 opening with Connection by Elastica kinda cemented my love of Ted Lasso, following the prior ep, which had something from A Tribe Called Quest.

I think the quality of music kinda trailed off, but the initial choices hooked me good youtu.be/gY2s4hJ8kuA

S1E4 unlike many shows, none of the actors/writers/directors seem to have much ‘learning curve’ with the characters.

With the possible exception of Brett Goldstein, who i noticed in this one seemed to not use as gravelly an inflection and has like a 6% posher accent, they all seem to have nailed everything down about their performances from day 1.

S1E5 a couple of times in prior episodes, and this one when he tells him to play-limp off the field to work the crowd, there were a few neat mentor-mentee moments between Roy and Sam, but those seemed to fade away after this one.

S1E6 oh crap, has this all ended with us never seeing or hearing the charity single rap “Winner Winner, Football Dinner?”

S1E7 Disney, please let apple release a single of Hannah Waddingham singing Let It Go

S1E8 I always liked how subtly they hinted at the Roy-Isaac connection that led to Isaac being named captain. This small little salute greeting was the first hint.

S2E1 Ted's response on the dais about Earl the dog's death walloped me square in the grieving gland. Beautiful and poignant.

@bikepedantic this episode has two amazing speeches this and the one Roy tells Rebecca about John aka the struck by lightning speech

@femmeUTCD related - I meant to note in the Liverpool episode, everyone talks about the Rebecca-Ted friendship, but the Rebecca-Roy friendship is extremely likable too

@bikepedantic it's wonderful and built on respect, support, and accountability!
