A man who watched Ted Lasso for the first time has admitted he thinks the show is incredible, despite not being a football fan. The fourth season of the award-winning Apple TV series premiered today (August 5), and the new viewer shared his thoughts on Reddit.
First Impressions of the Show
Posting in the R/TedLasso community, the commenter said he had heard good things about the show and decided to give it a try after getting two free months of Apple TV. He wrote: "What a show. The writers and directors had a hit with this one. only on episode seven, but so far every single episode has made me laugh out loud - guffaw even - and yet has also managed to bring me to tears."
He added: "What a wholesome and beautiful reminder that the most important thing in the world is not to be the best, not to be the smartest, not to be the strongest… just to be kind. It's truly inspirational."
Other Viewers React
Other viewers responded positively in the comments. One said: "No, Ted found you right when you needed him." Another recommended the show Shrinking, noting that Brett Goldstein writes for and appears in it. A third commented: "That was me too. I resisted because who needs another story about sports. Long since my 2 months was up, I'm still a subscriber, obsessed with the world cup and have lost count of my rewatchs, it is golden."
