I loved the first season of Ted Lasso. It was just what I needed to survive pandemic depression. More than survive – watching the show enabled me to fully embrace what I thought of as THE POWER OF THE HAPPY ENDING.
Season 2, however, is a disappointment. Same powerful outlook, but with a far less powerful result because something I couldn’t put my finger on was missing.
The season is about halfway over now, and that mysterious key element is still in hiding, but my half-assed “WTF am I not getting?” feeling has finally gone away thanks to a force I’d never have imagined would do the job.
