I was going to get a free trial to watch this, and something else, once the whole series is out.

I've finished watching the first series, and I really liked it.

At the beginning I thought it was just alright because I found the main character quite cartoonish, and couldn't understand why he took the job, but as it went on I found it got better and better.

I heard a review which said the second series was more hit-and-miss but I'll see.

Some of it is very funny, other bits not so much. I am going to binge watch the 2nd series when its all available. I'm not a fan of the way apple drip feed episodes of nearly all their series, by the time its all available to watch, i've usually forgotten all about it

I think it is all out now. I was planning to watch it all in the week's trial, but I didn't manage that - I prefer to leave some time in between episodes.

It's funny and it is quite emotional too. It gets quite a lot right about football I thought, with some inaccuracies.

I've watched the first five episodes of the second series and episode 5 was my favourite of these so far. I actually got quite emotional when

Spoiler:

Roy returned to Richmond to coach.


I also liked the Christmas episode previously. I thought the first episode of S2 was based on something that was a little far-fetched (with Earl the dog) so I liked that one less.

I really enjoyed the second series.

I heard a review which said it was hit-and-miss but I've got no complaints.

Yeah I recently binged watch both seasons its a very good show. I heard season 3 might be its last one which I think is a good idea. It's a good show but it's the type of show that can get repeative so best to finish when it's good

This came up in my YouTube recommendations.

Richmond Till We Die. Ted Lasso Season 3 premieres March 15 on Apple TV+ https://apple.co/TedLasso
S3 description - contains spoilers for what's already been shown.

Spoiler:


In this third season of Ted Lasso, the newly-promoted AFC Richmond faces ridicule as media predictions widely peg them as last in the Premier League and Nate (Nick Mohammed), now hailed as the “wonder kid,” has gone to work for Rupert (Anthony Head) at West Ham United. In the wake of Nate’s contentious departure from Richmond, Roy Kent (Brett Goldstein) steps up as assistant coach, alongside Beard (Brendan Hunt).

Meanwhile, while Ted (Jason Sudeikis) deals with pressures at work, he continues to wrestle with his own personal issues back home, Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham) is focused on defeating Rupert and Keeley (Juno Temple) navigates being the boss of her own PR agency. Things seem to be falling apart both on and off the pitch, but Team Lasso is set to give it their best shot anyway.

I liked S3 but not as much as the previous two. Some episodes I really liked.

I noticed the episodes were a lot longer than before.

The Roy Kent and Jamie Tartt actors have very different voices to the characters on the show. I was convinced the Jamie actor was a real Mancunian.

i just finished series 3. What i noticed is that the characters really evolved over the course of the three seasons, so it really felt like you were on a journey
