A comedy that is more than funny.
Hiding behind the simple premise of a 'fish out of water', this comedy blooms into the most heart warming television show I've seen. While many see Ted Lasso as having unrelenting optimism, it is more complicated than that, and the writers go so far as to show, and in some cases double down on the costs of that extreme positivity. This is one with very refreshing honesty, the kind rarely seen in TV comedies, except those like Scrubs (same producer) and a short spate of 'dramedies' in the late 80s early 90's.
One of the aspects of a good to great show is the supporting characters, and like Ted, they tend to be well rounded humans given to fits and starts when it comes to moving along, one way or another in life. Even the tertiary characters are fun to watch and have a bit of depth to them.
