This. It was a vacuum episode. Wasn’t great but it is what it is. The writers were forced into it. I’ll take the home run from the Christmas episode and the miss on this one all day
Thought it was a bit weird when they romanticized Beards relationship after setting it up all season about how toxic their relationship was. enjoyed the scene of the guys on the pitch.
Spotlight for the 3 fans in the bar was fun. They've been good minor characters and I liked seeing more of them. I really expected much more of a hangover movie kind of wild night so was a little underwhelmed. But I'll take whatever fun lasso content I can get. The only thing I thought was completely stupid was running into tartt and co. Could have cut that entire part out of at least fight some random person. I was just "really? These guys?" I get that it reinforces beard doesn't think highly of himself...but tartt? Eh.
I just generally dislike holiday specials on any series. So this was approximately on par with the xmas special. Not bothered about their existence as I understand the late addition.
Yeah, if we only had 10 episodes and this was one of them, I would have been annoyed on some level. Instead it's more like "they tried something completely different with an extra episode and it wasn't for me, but it was still an episode of Ted Lasso so whatever?"
So pretty much gonna clean up tonight, yeah? Had four fucking nominations for best supporting actor lol
I enjoyed the Beard episode. He's fallen into the background as they elevated a lot of the other supporting cast and good to see him given a chance to show something beyond little locker room quips.
That episode was amazing and I think I’m gonna start blocking negative takes from users itt because I don’t want that energy
Anyone listen to Brett Goldstein’s podcast Films To Be Buried With? He has guests on the talk about the films that mean the most to them. The one with Beard is great. Would recommend any of them.
Another 45 minute episode tonight. We're going to end up getting what amounts to 3-4 more episodes than season 1. Longest episodes of season 1 were 34 minutes. 8 of the first 10 this year were 35+, and the last three have all been 43+. I am in favor of this.
If they shot it and they think it works with the story, I want to see it. Cut nothing for time reasons. Nothing.
