Rolling Stone

A much less tight series than it was back in that first season, but more of it still works than doesn't.

The show's simple pleasures come from a variety of sources, including just listening to the way Brett Goldstein's Roy can creatively put together a string of expletives.

I love the contrast between Ted and Nate in this episode and how, despite their differences, their stories run parallel to each other.

Judging by the season premiere, we’re in for one hell of a ride.

This season is squaring up to be a fight on all fronts. But as we cheer the underdog Richmond team onward, Ted Lasso will, as always, advise us that it’s how we fight that determines a win and whether it feels good doing so.
