YouTube, this video is for television and film lovers, people who watch video essays on tv and film analysis, and for fans of Ted Lasso.

For a comedic series, Ted Lasso is very interesting, because it’s not very interesting at all. Despite the Emmys and the hundreds of millions of ad dollars that Apple has paid to market the show, it really is the most inconspicuously good show. And there’s reasons for that.
