TED LASSO – Review by Susan Granger

July 12, 2021July 18, 2021 Susan Granger Apple TV+, Bill Lawrence, Hannah Waddington, Jason Sudeikis, juno temple, Ted Lasso

This delightful, culture-clash comedy just scored a massive 20 Emmy nominations, the most ever for a 1st season sitcom – with accolades going to its star Jason Sudeikis, along with co-stars Hannah Waddington, Juno Temple and Brett Goldstein. Created by showrunner Bill Lawrence with Sudeikis, the plot revolves around an unflappable American football coach named Ted Lasso (Sudeikis).
