Actually lost lots of weight in s3.
Television Ted Lasso (Apple TV Football Comedy)
- Thread starter Annihilate Now!
- Start date
I still enjoyed this for what it was. Deep or realistic it isn't of course and the finale felt rushed, and unlike S2 which had 2 pointless extra episodes, this series could have done with 2 more.
Started watching this over the weekend. Season 1 was incredible, moments where I nearly cried man tears.
What the feck happened between then and season 2?! It’s almost slapstick it’s so bad.

Season two was still good compared to season 3. It really was shockingly bad.
Yea, I genuinely liked season 1 and was actually looking forward for season 2 at that time. Season 2 and 3 are just boring. It's like they ran out of ideas.
Finished this over the weekend. Season 1 was absolutely brilliant. Then a massive nosedive in season 2 which I was having some thoughts on just dumping it altogether but persevered with it just to see how it ended. Hoping for better in season 3 and despite it not being as bad as season 2, it just was nowhere near as good as the first season. Felt very rushed and just lacking new ideas.
Overall it’s decent but personally nowhere near as good as it’s made out in the media. 7/10.

I bailed on finishing season 3. At least season 2 had that angle with Lasso going to the therapist, the classic take on the sad clown which at least was a good thing to talk about in the context of football. Season 3 was more "what if we made Ted Lasso but stopped making it about football or Ted Lasso but everyone else instead".
Very late to this as I've never had Apple TV before, and thought it would be American "soccer" shite, but it's actually so good.
Until they ruined it by playing that scouse dirge when they got relegated.
Cannot stress enough how much I hated this. Real emperor’s no clothes thing for me, as I’ve had it recommended to me a zillion times. Don’t think I’ve ever sat through an episode of a “comedy” and felt less amused than I did watching e1 of this shite.
Downtown Abbey with worse football. It was essentially a one season idea, if even that, that had an uplifting message we all sort of needed at the time. Then it became insufferable, and made the Dream Team show look like a gritty Michael Mann movie in comparison. So, so fecking dumb.
Tagline checks out.
Can't remember why but I recently ended up watching clips of The Office on youtube.
Now this is an actual comedy.
On to season 3. It's an easy enjoyable watch.
Have to laugh at how West Ham is portrayed as one of the big boys in football though. Also the football scenes are absolutely dire.

It’s not the funniest thing ever, but it’s got heart and like you say an easy watch.
And your point? So much hyperbole for nothing!
Also, Hannah Waddingham is a ride. A big giant ride.
Wouldn't it be great if all managers just regularly drank down their local pub.
My point? I didn’t like this TV series.
Your point?
I think it's a good show, an easy watch. There has been some real poignant moments that hit every now and again when you are going through shit. Real feel good comfort food.... and some genuinely \o/ moments.
Redcafe gon redcafe...
It's shite.
I didn't find that funny at all.
I think it’s gas. Makes me chuckle every single time. Although helps if you’ve ever been involved in the charade that is an annual appraisal, which it’s taking the piss out of.
Yeah, it's funny. Love The Office.
I used ChatGPT to do all my appraisals in October (Our year end) and it's fecking brilliant. Ours is mostly online with a face to face at the end, I like to keep my staff appraisals short and concise as I can't be fecking bothered with the pointless charade when the higher ups just gave everyone a blanket 3.5% rise last year anyway.
Someone got "underachieving on some targets" and I got "Exceeds expectations" and we both got the same pay rise, which is lovely.
Cunning plan.

Key Observations:
- Failure to Meet Posting Targets: Afrocentricity has fallen short of the expected posting targets during the review period. Despite having posted over 25,000 times, the quantity of posts does not align with the predetermined benchmarks.

Many of the posts lack substance, relevance, or fail to contribute meaningfully to the discussions on RedCafe.net. The substandard nature of these topics is a concern, as it detracts from the overall quality of content on the forum.
- Lack of Fostering Engagement: Afrocentricity has not demonstrated an adequate ability to foster engagement with other forum members. Effective engagement goes beyond quantity and includes the creation of meaningful discussions, encouraging participation, and contributing positively to the community atmosphere, which Afrocentricity has not achieved.
- Inconsistent Adherence to Community Guidelines: There have been instances where Afrocentricity's posts did not adhere to the community guidelines of RedCafe.net. It is crucial for all employees to maintain the standards set by the platform to ensure a respectful and inclusive environment for all users.

Have AFC Richmond beaten United yet?
They did in season 3. Zava with a last minute bicycle kick.
At least it wasn't another cutback.
Finished it.
Load of Man City sportswashing/propaganda wank. Feck off.

Reluctantly giving the final season a chance as my free Apple TV+ is coming to an end. Three episodes in I'm pleasantly surprised it isn't as cringe as season 2.
