Its won a billion Emmys and I dont know a single person that watches it.

Ive never once laughed at Jason Sudeikis in my entire life so im not very optimistic.

Haven't seen it yet but heard nothing but good things

It's also made by Bill Lawrence so despite seeing a single episode i'm gonna have to answer the Topic Question with an "ABSOLUTELY HELL YES"

It's fantastic.

If it helps, Bill Lawrence is a show runner, as in the guy responsible for Scrubs.

If the descriptor "charming" is off-putting to you, Ted Lasso may not be your cup of tea.

Don't think of it as "that jason sud show" think of it as "a proper spiritual successor to scrubs in terms of quality and being just as heartwarming"

I similarly had no interest in anything by that jason guy and was very skeptical of some apple tv show of all things (still didn't know about bill lawrence involvement) but I had never eaten crow harder than I have with this show, it was completely unexpected and great.

Sure I'm glad it won some award or whatever but I just care about it being an amazing series that's well worth the watch. It's just a shame that most people won't see it because apparently it's only on apple tv in the us

Season 1 was fantastic.
Season 2 is even better.

The portrayal of numerous platonic friendships is outstanding.
The women characters are supportive of one another, not catty.
The men characters show genuine care and emotion with zero judgement.
It's heartwarming and hilarious.

Just don't expect too much soccer/football.

Yes it is very good.

Also if you have Apple TV you should watch the also very good Mythic Quest.

It's basically Ned Flanders the show. I wouldn't call it laugh out loud funny, but the main character is just one of those guys you can't help but root for.

More of a heartwarming drama than a comedy

That's a great descriptor
