Ted Lasso Season 1
Overview
Ted Lasso is a 2020 sports comedy-drama television series created by Jason Sudeikis, Bill Lawrence, Brendan Hunt, and Joe Kelly for Apple TV+. The first season stars Jason Sudeikis as Ted Lasso, an American college football coach who is hired to coach an English Premier League soccer team, AFC Richmond, despite having no experience with soccer. The series is a heartwarming, optimistic, and genuinely funny comedy. Ted is a relentlessly positive, kind, and folksy man from Kansas. He is hired by the team's owner, Rebecca Welton (Hannah Waddingham), who wants him to fail as revenge on her ex-husband. Instead, Ted wins over the players, the staff, and the fans with his folksy wisdom, his belief in others, and his "biscuits with the boss" tradition. The first season was a massive critical and commercial success, winning numerous awards, including a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series. The show is a must-see for anyone who needs a little bit of optimism in their life.
