Ted Lasso writers, actors, producers have created a delightful show that does not rely on a motif. The stories grow out of a bunch of ideas then they add some sorrow, some joy, and then hope that things will get better. It's organic - develops as it must without a lot of extraneous stuff - it's like your best and worst days in 30-50 minutes.
And though it's about a football team - the kind they play without helmets and shoulder pads - it's not a locker room drama or sports farce.
And I love that people care about each other.
This is such a relief from the constant news about children, young people, teachers, parents getting shot by high-powered guns. Ted Lasso relieves some of the pain and fear.
