I've read some of the reviews of Ted Lasso - those writers must be the same people that go to beautiful resorts in the Carribean and write a review saying how horrible it was. Maybe they just didn't get all of the references. This show was so funny, and quick witted I had to watch all 3 seasons twice just to catch all the jokes. I agree the 3rd season wasn't the best season but isn't that how shows work - the characters evolve and sometimes become better people which isn't as funny but the show was awesome. T.V. shows aren't made for critics they are made for audiences. Anyone out there that hasn't seen it - give it a try - I was hooked the first episode.
