Critics Consensus

As comforting as a buttery biscuit from a friend, Ted Lasso's sophomore season is a feel-good triumph that plays into the show's strengths while giving its supporting team more time on the pitch.

Seasons 1 and 2 we great. The characters were a mix of sweet, fun, silly, an inspirational. THe idea was a bit far-fetched, but that wasn't the point The heart of the show is about what it is to be human. That no one is one or two dimensional. That we all have our faults and we all have our strengths. That it is important to lean on strengths and to help each other through life. I had fun and was touched watching those first two seasons. It was my favorite show this decade for those two seasons.

In the second season of the show, we find the circumstances of the show at an all time low from the aftermath of the game portion of the show, however, from here on out, character interactions are all essentially totally positive. Everyone are friends, and while that is a nice conclusion for the end of season 1, season 2 unfortunately feels as though it has lost its major appeal, that Ted Lasso becomes friends with people that initially hate him because of how positive he is. This season has a strange subplot where Ted basically only has to win over one person, a psychiatrist, and in order for the show to try to capture some drama, it expands and extends Ted Lasso and his own mental health as he attenlts to come to grips with his divorce and his past. However, the entire excercise feels as though it comes out left field and the conclusion of the subplot is not resolved in any satisfactory way. More than season 1, this season drops the ball for many plotlines and many of the episodes are vignettes to help give depth to many of the minor characters since Ted Lasso can no longer carry the plot. In addition to this, the game part of the show is the only source of tension, and while season 1 used the games to help be a sort of allegory for the slow change of the team and the perception of the world towards Ted, the games instead stand on their own as almost unrelated drama which drives the plot more than I feel like a show like this needed. This show was a show with sports in it, this season the show becomes a sports show, for better or worse. However, it does a good job being a sport show and each game is griping, it is just too bad to get invested in the characters, the story to resolve and the show to keep going aimlessly. The writing also takes a hit, the same issue with clunky pop culture references and puns which approach annoying when they were at first fairly charming.

Going against the majority grain here, and gonna say: I still don't understand the appeal of this show. It's as breezy as any decent Hallmark Christmas movie in the books. The only unpredictable part of this show is just how safe they will play the next story line. Everyone is just buddy buddy, and there is no conflict or drama. Not that I particularly watch any entertainment for it, but I def noticed it missing in this show. Watching this show is like ordering a Bud Select 55 beer. Nothing inherently wrong with that, but not my preference. Everything that happens in this show is just too easy. Not the worst show, but if I had to watch a comedy workplace show, I'd prefer the first few seasons of The Office over this any day of the week.
