The Beginnings of Ted Lasso

Ted Lasso is an unexpected hit AppleTV+ show which began as a series of promos to promote NBC Sports showing Premier League soccer.

Those vignettes led to the character being developed and expanded into a 10-episode series of half-hour comedies which initially seems like a typical “fish out of water” story of an American football coach being hired to coach a British football team but become a larger story about optimism, trust and seeing the good in everyone.

In our increasingly polarized world, perhaps not a surprise it became a hit after all?
