Hey Lasso Redditors,

I appreciate all the kind posts in response to me seeking therapy. I just wanna let you know I have been doing well and still in therapy.

Bullying is a hell of a thing. And I grew up in a time when victims were blamed as “being an easy target” and the bullies were never responsible for their actions.

I see myself a lot in Nate. Not so much as when in power I treat others bad. But more so what I deserve and what should be mine. It’s all stuff I am working through, a day at a time and a session at a time.

I just wanna say if some of you need a show to watch GO SEE INSIDE OUT 2. It is a great show that if you seen Ted Lasso you will love this. Deals a lot with anxiety and does a great job of showing what a panic attack looks like. Not to spoil but there is a lot of talk of “Sense of Self”. This is something I am trying to figure out on myself. I understand now why Colin would say “I’m a strong and capable man”. He was determining (if that’s the right way to say that) his sense of self.

All in all go see this movie and look at the themes and see how to apply those in your lives.

Much love from one Lasso fan to others!

And it freaked me out. Ted’s bubbly and overly chipper demeanour mimics my own, and the panic attacks, his questions of what are we doing - it was like staring into a mirror. I hated it.

I thought this was meant to be a comedy about a team of blokes learning to play better by supporting each other. I didn’t expect it to transform into a heart-wrenching analysis on the mortifying ordeal of truly being known. The amount of mental health and character growth in the series was, in my opinion, fantastically written and it messed me up.

It made me confront my past traumas and realise that I am Ted. And I don’t want to be Ted. I want to heal. I want to push myself forward and believe everyday that I am trying my best, but for me to do that, I have to let myself be known. Truly known. And that is terrifying.

I didn’t know a show could influence me so heavily, but it has transformed my outlook on my future and I’m determined to be wholly myself, even the parts that hurt, and find a way to navigate this tumultuous world in which everything is honestly so messed up - but I don’t want to be part of that mix anymore.

I think I posted this because I want to share the emotional labour this show has put me through because I hope it is for the better. For anyone else that has had a similar experience, know you are not alone. Life is hard, and that is okay. I want to try my best and truly let myself be, including the bad parts.

Seriously, how did a show break through years of repression so easily? Man, what a great show and thanks for reading.

Currently watching Transformers and I noticed that the voice of Wheeljack sounds oddly familiar. I went online to check who it is and lo and behold it's Dani Rojas (Cristo Fernández). Makes the movie even better now haha

An actual Dunce's hat looks like the Producer Doozer's logo (round glasses penciled in).

The most beautiful part of this finale was

1. How they seemed to bring back every major and minor character that has appeared on the show. Like the older couple was from the rom com episode doing a direct to camera. The guy who got hit in the face was Rebecca’s short term bf and his girlfriend was the “shite in nighting armor” line. Badass Sharon. Shandy and zava making cameos on the magazines. The same flight attendant that helped Henry was on Ted’s flight. The couple from “beards night out” showed up to his wedding. Even the “ussie” guy in the first episode appeared in the airport back as a nod that Ted has come full circle and this part of his journey is done.

2. What was even more beautiful was how the writers rounded out every character and gave exactly what they needed/ wished for. Roy changed. Barbara got more blood. Colin got to kiss his guy on the field just like his teammates got to kiss their girls. Nate’s play worked. Ted understood offsides. Rebecca got to see the demise of Rupert and got her true love. The pub groupies had the ownership of their team. Sam made a winning goal and got to play for his dream team. Beard got his romcom ending. Henry got his dad back. Dani got a final goodbye from Zava. Jamie got the dad he wanted. Nate had validation from his dad (and was wearing the suit Ted bought him to dinner).

The final shot just like every season ended with a close up of the character that grew the most that season this time it finally being Ted. The theme of growth could not have been more perfectly executed. Crying typing this.

Greetings from Vienna!

I’m on my first ever rewatch (my first watch happened two weeks ago for reference)- usually avoid most shows that my straight tech friends recommend because they can be overhyped or have humor that go way over my head. I can’t believe I’ve wasted 4 years of my life without this show.

I just watched the scene where Rupert tells Rebecca that Bex is pregnant and she blurts out “WHAT ARE YOU?! A CHARACTER FROM THE F*CKING BIBLE?!” And I literally scared my dog from laughter. Not sure if it’s my religious trauma but this is top 3 fav tv moments. Curious your fav moments?

Signs • Nate's hair goes from tousled to Caesar's [George Clooney]
• Nate was pissed with "new" kitmann • Nate started bad-mouthing and insulting players. • Nate forces his manner to be confrontational. • Nate asks Keeley to make him "famous" for the perks (ego).

There’s no way they can convince me that this character isn’t inspired in Trent Crimm!

Someone pointed out that a post with the management team as Peanuts characters was a scam and they deleted that post only to replace it with a new one a few minutes later

Thank you to that original poster and to the scammer: may your time in hell include Nickleback on a loop

Eta: thank y'all for the info on Reddit bots; I had no idea how (or why) they worked (and still don't, but I'll leave my posts up for my fellow dummies and self-reference)

Dani Rojas or Trent Crimm (the independent)

Binged all 3 seasons about 8 times, love this show so much!

Finally got round to opening my sticker shop and thought I’d share my Ted Lasso stickers

Was Jack's first love bomb investing in KJPR?

They are shown in the last episode going to the last game played at Richmond and I can't place who they are! I am so sure they are shop keepers or someone's parents . . . Same with the guy who gets hit in the nose by >!McAdoo's goal?!<Did any of them appear in other episodes? Thankks!

In the closing scenes of the series. It’s been noted that Mae fixes the Native American photo in homage to Cheers’s closing scene. It then transitions to Trent Crim at his book signing. The conversation is pretty indiscernible.

But if you have the subtitles on the dialogue is: Patron: “Thank you.” Crim: “Cheers.”

Not sure if others had noticed this before but made me laugh.

Just finished Ted Lasso and absolutely LOVED it sooo much.

I’m so sad now that it’s done. What would you guys recommend for your next feel good show to watch?
