One of the many trends observed since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic has been a boom in the consumption of entertainment. Shows that people have wanted to check out have been successfully binged and lists of must-see movies continue to dwindle by the day. One particular show that struck a chord with many is Ted Lasso, the story of an American College Football coach turned Premier League Manager.
The show is originally based on a Jason Sudeikis character from NBC Sports commercials that aired around the time NBC acquired rights to air Premier League games. What these commercials did not convey, however, are the complex emotions Ted Lasso (played by Sudeikis) is dealing with surrounding an overseas move, a stark career transition, and a painful divorce.
