In the end, my favorite character in the whole series has been the old gal pub owner and the folks that frequent her pub. Strange I know but I look forward to her short but eloquent quips. [Reply]
I loved seasons 1 and 2 of Ted Lasso, one of my favorite shows. And Roy Kent is one of my all time favorite TV characters.
Season 3 got off to a slow start, didn't like Keeley's storyline much, her office staff suck and Jack sucks too. But I have really enjoyed the second half, starting with the Amsterdam episode (that so many on here hated, but I liked), and all the ones since then. I feel like it will end strong, though fairly predictable (which is fine, I'm all for happy endings for a comedy show).
I know this, I'll miss it once it's over. It's our Tuesday night routine for my wife and daughter and I, and one of the few shows we all agree on and like watching together.
Oh, and here are my predictions:
- Rebecca is going to end up with Dutch Guy after all, and his daughter will fulfill her mom prediction
- Ted goes back home to his son, and maybe to his wife as well, I'm leaning yes to that
- Roy becomes head coach of Richmond
- Nate ends up coaching a smaller team
- Trent Crimm will call his book "Believe", which will also be #4 of the four things about Total Football
Though I could just see Nate sticking with Richmond and being an assistant with Roy.
I hope they don't go full Disney and have Richmond winning the Premier League or anything. That's just a bridge too far in a sport where teams like Arsenal or Chelsea will just throw a billion dollars at someone if they're not winning by enough.
Some plucky upstart picked for relegation to begin the season that's operating on relative shoestring budget just isn't gonna win that thing. It'd be like Williams winning an F1 title - doesn't happen. I guess it's happened once (Leicester City) but it's just hokey, IMO. [Reply]

I think they're going to win it and Leicester is the reason.
The reveal at the end of 3x11. Back to good story telling.
I'm going to miss this show. It helped get me through some really tough times.
Although, apparently Apple TV is listing 3x12 as the "season finale" and not the "series finale" so... [Reply]
So how much of that last montage was a dream? All of it? That possibility certainly allows them to continue it if they choose (with or without Ted). [Reply]
