The fact that they took this idea and added depth, character development, snarky humor, humanity, and wholesomeness. Just amazing.
-
9 years and two full seasons of a show later and the “how many countries are in this country” line still busts me up every time.
-
I just finished watching the final episode of the show Ted Lasso. It's crazy to me that NBC promotional skits could turn into one of the funniest , smartest, and heartfelt shows i've even watched.
-
1:53 it took him 10 yrs but he did it. He finally understands offsides
-
From a YouTube skit to a Golden Globe winner 💀
-
So many of these jokes were reused in the series and I don't hate it.
-
COACH BEARD’S BEEN THERE SINCE DAY 1
-
I can't believe they even kept the same actor for Coach Beard for the show...
-
They should really think about turning this into a TV show
-
I love the subtle change of making Ted Lasso more optimistic and kind. This one is more like Led Tasso
-
The world has changed so much in the last 10 years. Adapting the character into a genuinely nice guy was the masterstroke. Same jokes, completely different feel in a completely different world. To see a comedy promote the values of kindness and team spirit felt so refreshing and rewarding to watch.

Who would've thought he would end up in FIFA at some point, iconic
-
They made it a series, they actually did it. Good shit Apple.
-
"Wales? Is that another country?" "Yes and no." - That part was hilarious.
-
I just realized this was our first glimpse of Led Tasso! "Because of this training, I can guarantee that we will beat the Cowboys, and the Cowboys, and Jennifer Lawrence." Brilliant. I know Jason Sudeikis and the other creators only want to do three seasons, I can't imagine how much money they're going to offer to get them to stay cuz many people, myself included, got an Apple subscription solely to watch this Lasso.

Turns out you can take a tiny skit of a video… and turn it into one of the greatest TV shows of all time. And the fact they kept Coach Beard as the same guy is pretty awesome.
-
Coach Beard is a homie! He’s been here from the start, legendary! 👊
-
Had no idea Ted Lasso was based on this sketch. One of my favourite shows with one of my favourite SNL actors. Incredible.
-
THE FACT THAT SOME OF THESE LINES MADE IT INTO THE SERIES 7 YEARS LATER?!?!?! This show is seriously one of the greatest of all time.
-
watching this after the Lasso finale, I'm gonna miss the hell out of this character
