As we were going through some changes in our pirated viewing sessions, my pirate suggested a newish little series he'd heard of through the grapevine....Ted Lasso. The set-up is that a newly divorced woman owner of a football club (the AFL Richmond Greyhounds, Premier League) sacks the team coach and hires a new, American, coach. He was a semi-successful coach of small college football teams. American football, not soccer. He, and his assistant coach, Coach Beard, who arrives with him, have never coached soccer. It is all part of the plan by the owner to ruin the team forever, to spite the husband who spurned her. The new coach is an inveterate optimist with very winning ways and the clash of objectives and the interactions of the participants is fun for all. Actor Jason Sudeikis fills the title role, while Hannah Waddingham, Brett Goldstein, Phil Dunster, Juno Temple, and Jeremy Swift headline the English and international ensemble cast. www.youtube.com/watch?v=q304ohvYaGQ
