now you might be thinking hey casey don’t you find it odd that ted lasso wrapped up half its arcs in one rapid-fire epiphany montage? and that despite the increased runtime, so many important moments informing character arc happen offscreen in a way that feels more lazy than artful? and yes. yes i do find it odd. ok moving along

#i’m not sure why i haven’t had the same incensed reaction to the utter nonsense that is the overarching plot of ted lasso s3 as i had to #neverafter even though i think they suffer from the same key writing deficit: being too goddamned big #i’m sorry ted lasso you’ve got too much story there and you stretched yourself thin and kinda fucked all of it #but maybe my brain is so worn out on media crit bc i can still look at last nights ep and go aw sam and jamie :))) without getting pissed #seriously why did they bring akufo back. would have been so much neater of a plot to have sam not get chosen bc he’s still protesting stuff #the nigerian government does #i just hate everything about how they write akufo it always comes off so fucking weird #anyways #tl #ted lasso #c.txt
