Why
Why is Ted Lasso my favourite TV series?
Jason Sudeikis is Ted Lasso, a football coach hired to manage a British soccer team. What he lacks in knowledge, he makes up for with optimism, determination...and biscuits.
What makes Ted Lasso so successful, popular and fun to watch is its 'feel-good' atmosphere. The series just makes you feel better, it uplifts you and it certainly makes you look at everything in a more positive and optimistic way. Joyful and funny moments are delicately balanced against heavier emotional storylines. You fall in love with the cast of wonderful characters and the unbridled empathetic coaching style of Lasso. I BELIEVE in Ted Lasso!

Ted Lasso through the seasons
Season 1
Ted Lasso, an American college football coach, is unexpectedly recruited to coach a fictional English Premier League soccer team, AFC Richmond, despite having no previous experience coaching soccer. The team's owner, Rebecca Welton, hires Lasso hoping he will fail as a means of exacting revenge on the team's previous owner, her unfaithful ex-husband. However, Ted's charm, personality, and humour begin to win over Rebecca, the team, and those who had been sceptical about his appointment.
