Back to TED LASSO

A few days ago, I blogged about the new sitcom, TED LASSO. Scroll down or log onto my March 10th "Have You Seen TED LASSO?" post and read it, if you please. Jason Sudeikis, formerly of SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, won a Golden Globe and the Critics Choice award for Best Actor in a TV comedy. It's a fish-out-of-water sitcom. He coached college football in Kansas and accepts a job to coach a professional soccer team in London. He knows nothing about soccer, but he's got a steely enthusiasm and a shatter-proof optimism that help him as he attempts to be a good, new coach. I watched the first 3 episodes and laughed a lot. I just watched episodes #4 and #5. I laughed -- and I cried. I saw why Sudeikis won those awards. 

In one of the first 3 episodes, he calls home to talk to his little boy and his wife. He joyfully says "I love you" to his son and he hears those words returned to him. He says "I love you" to his wife, but you sense that she does not say "I love you too." We get the feeling that some unhappiness dwells in the life of this eternal optimist.


 Episode #4 is about accountability. There's a posh benefit to raise funds for needy children. Popular members of the soccer team are up for auction as dates. Ted's statuesque, no-nonsense, calculating and often stern boss has to emcee. Her ex-husband, the former owner of the soccer team that she now owns as part of their divorce settlement, used to emcee and the crowd always loved him. We see a more vulnerable side of Rebecca, Ted's boss, as she prepares for the event. Rebecca is insecure about her middle-aged looks. She's insecure about how the benefit audience will accept her.


 Ted, whom she pretended to like more than she really did to the press and to Ted himself, gives her strong, sincere encouragement. Encouragement is what Rebecca needs. As she's hosting the benefit, her wanker ex-husband appears and takes the stage with her. Ted gives her heart-felt support and he inspires two rival members of the soccer team, both up for auction at the benefit, to put their differences aside and truly act like teammates.

In Episode #5, we learn that Ted loves Broadway musicals. And Ted's wife and child fly to London to visit him. You can tell that they are the greatest loves in his life. His wife is glad to see him. However, there is dissonance in their marriage. They'd been seeing a marriage therapist in Kansas.  Michelle, Ted's wife, said that his "constant optimism is too much." Her unhappiness weighs on his mind as she and their little boy are in the stands watching one of Ted's televised soccer matches.

My partner died of AIDS in the spring of 1994. He was a wonderful guy. I loved him and he loved me. He changed my life. In the following years, I was romantically interested in a few fellows, but the interest was never mutual. And online dating after the age of 40 is like hitting yourself on the head with a stick. It feels so good when you stop. My willingness to love and commit again to a man were treated like an inconvenience. After a while, I took my feelings, boxed them up, put them in a little space in my heart and closed the door. I didn't lock the door. I just closed it.


So...the final scene of Episode #5 with Ted and his wife made my cry. TED LASSO is a good series. Standouts in the solid ensemble cast are Hannah Waddingham (above) as Rebecca, Nick Mohammed as Nathan the bullied locker room attendant, Brett Goldstein as Roy, the short-tempered and hairy-chested older soccer team member and Phil Dunster as his popular young rival, Jamie. You can see the series on Apple TV/

    5. Herbal treatment is 100% guaranteed for HSV cure, the reason why most people are finding it difficult to cure HSV is because they believe in medical reports, drugs and medical treatment which is not helpful to cure HSV. Natural roots/herbs are the best remedy which can easily eradicate herpes forever. i never thought i could ever get cured of herpes not until i met dr Okhai, i have used several drugs up to no avail, the symptoms keeps increasing at a certain time i couldn't seat in public with people the itching was much that it became embarrassing . My story changed when I came across dr.OKhai herbal post online. At first I was scared not to fall victim again because several fake herbal doctors had collected money from me and nothing happened. I didn't even see the herbal medicine nor did I get cured. So i summoned courage and i contacted him and within 4 days i receive the herbal medicine, prescription on how to use it was in it , i used it as prescribed for 18days and after 2days i went for test and herpes was no more, im so happy for the past 3yrs i have been living in pains. please if you are still out there suffering from herpes or any other form of infection i indulge you to contact dr Okhai and be healed so you can live your normal life again.

  4. Its a great pleasure for me to write this testimony about how i got my Genital Herpes cured a month ago. i have been reading so many comments of some people who were cured from various diseases by Dr Aza but i never believed them. I was hurt and depressed so I was too curious and wanted to try DR. Aza then i contacted him through his email, he assured me 100% that he will heal me, i pleaded with him to help me out. My experience with him was great, he healed me just as he promised. he sent me his medication and ask me to go for a medical check up after two weeks of usage. i agreed with him i took this medication and went for a check up, to my greatest surprise my result was negative, i am really happy that i am cured and healthy again. I have waited for 3weeks to be very sure i was completely healed before writing this testimony. I did another blood test one week ago and it was still Herpes negative. so i guess its time i recommend anyone going through the same way. reach him through his email address: drazaherbalcenter@gmail.com OR call, add him on Whatsapp +1(315) 795 1518 you can also visite his website at;www.drazaherbalcenter.com
