When you're trying to be so subversive that instead of pairing your main male character with either a strong, rich, tall, self-sufficient, divorced, middle aged girlboss who would make a wonderful step-mother to his child, or a divorced gay man who came out in his 40s, with a daughter, with whom he could have created an amazing blended family, and would have made the main character bisexual, which would have been ground breaking, you made him go back to his suburban nuclear family home, ambiguously get back together with a woman that didn't truly love him for who he was and giving up his entire life outside of them, and ended up upholding traditional American values about what a family should look like.
Oh, and the woman also ends up with a nuclear family while the gay man ends up alone, shown to have nothing in his life other than his work.
But sure, pat yourselves on the back for not making the 2 leads get together!!! Or not making a rom-com ending because this "ain't that type of show"!!! It was so amazing and revolutionary!!!!!!

Ted Lasso 3x12: Why the Finale Felt a Bit Hollow
I genuinely think the only way to end Ted’s arc was to have him return to Henry. There’s no world in which he would ask his son to move across the world to him, much less not return to him. And so much of Ted’s pain is centered around being far from Henry. In a way, being a parent does really overshadow every other part of your life...some are saying Ted has gotten reduced down to just his fatherhood, but the point is that for him, and for a lot of parents, your child is your number one priority even if there’s a thousand more things on the other side of the scale. Henry needs him, and Richmond doesn’t, so there’s no way to justify the distance that Ted himself admits he keeps partly because he’s afraid of when Henry will leave him. It is beautiful that he can be confident now and take up the space he deserves in Kansas, in his son’s life. I hope Michelle gets it together, and hopefully that scene with Dr. Jacob being an asshole is what that’s about. 
I will read a hundred fics about Ted staying with Richmond to soothe the pain, and I’ve been rotating it in my mind all day. I also don’t particularly ship anyone but Roy and Jamie, so Ted’s ending isn’t about that for me. 
However, what really bugged me is that it seems like the show is treating Ted moving away to Kansas as if he will literally never talk to or see these people again, as if he didn’t involve himself with Henry’s life as much as possible from an ocean away. Why would the inverse not hold true with his other family, with his platonic soulmate and best friend(s) and pseudo child?? I am definitely buying into the dream sequence theory at the end bc otherwise that is what really pushes this into sad territory for me...why would he not be a part of those memories, those futures to come, as a friend and family member?
It seemed like the show couldn’t decide, like Ted was checked out of all of these emotional goodbyes where other people tried to tell him over and over again that they loved him and wanted him, without showing deep sadness or telling them to visit or giving a rambling Ted story. I’m hoping that’s because it’s a huge life change, but not one that moves him to sadness, because he’ll continue being there for them, and they’ll continue being there for him. 
I would have loved some reassurance though...Ted promising to call every day at Biscuits with the Boss time...Rebecca giving him a permanent airfare ticket so he can be flying in and out all the time, bringing Henry with him! Ted going to Richmond games whenever he can, Ted remembering birthdays and going to the book release and taking up space when the Higgins get everyone together. Ted showing back up with Henry, Sleepless in Seattle style, being greeted by Rebecca and the rest of the team to spend weeks and months back in his other home. Ted getting FaceTimed for advice about relationships and promotions and girl talk and the Diamond Dogs group chat and how to make a Richmond charity or women’s team or kid’s outreach program (best way to make Rebecca a mom in my opinion). Ted being a consultant bc Rebecca refuses to take him off the payroll until they win the whole thing, Ted being loved by the fans and journos even from afar, even years later. Ted being happy to be in London as a tourist with his son, with all that wonder and joy and optimism now that he can resolve the ache of both of his lives being one life! And vice versa, Rebecca and Beard constantly visiting, dragging Keeley or Roy or Nate with them, the players spending off season learning about Kansas and playing with Henry, celebrating holidays together !! The fans who now own 49% of the club being ok with some of its budget being “wasted” just making sure Ted and the team continue to be with each other in some way. Ted visiting and being greeted by all the people he talks to during his morning routine as if he never left. 
I just hope that he’s not cutting himself out of his community. It is about you, Ted. It is. 
Hope he creates a beautiful, whole life in Kansas (ideally in my mind he coaches a women’s soccer team there and then eventually moves back to Richmond to coach their women’s soccer team like years in the future, once Henry is an adult), but also continues therapy enough to know that he isn’t Mary Poppins!! He’s a Dorothy that loved Oz, he’s a Maria that deserves the Von Trapps. He’s the main character, he’s not a magical mentor type. He has immensely wealthy people who love him, he can make it work both ways. Some of the money that could have been his salary can instead be his travel and phone bill money. 
It’s a dream sequence not only because it had some truly unrealistic stuff in it (Jane and Beard getting married at Stonehenge, Rebecca meeting Dutch man despite the magic of their story being its ephemeral nature, Jamie with his dad, Trent taking out so much of Ted from the book cover/title after he said he wouldn’t change anything) but because, for me, the only part of the finale that was truly disappointing was the regression of Ted thinking he exists only to make those moments possible for others, with no place for himself within them. 
In a finale that didn’t really feel like an ending (in a good way!), where so many storylines didn’t get resolved because the point is that the characters will keep growing and changing and evolving beyond what we see of them, because now they have the tools to do that, I can’t Believe that the one hard ending we got was Ted’s life with Richmond. So I won’t.

listen i am CLEARLY in a tedtrent mood on this day, but as a multi shipper it’s pissing me off to see so many tedtrent shippers actively hate on tedbecca instead of just. idk. not? (to be clear, ik hate goes both ways) like i get that not everyone ships tedbecca (just as not everyone ships tedtrent) but like. pls stop acting like it’s a surface level ship just bc it’s the more obvious ship. pls don’t actively ignore that tedbecca had the same hinted setup that tedtrent did. pls stop using cast interviews as fodder for your hatred. this cast/these showrunners (aside from a select few like james lance, imo) have clearly shown in the press before, during, and after this season that they do not have a good grasp on the characters they created. (it’s like they were in chekhov’s gun factory and just didn’t fire any of them. they’re just for display, we’re not actually gonna do anything with the plot points we set up or conclude any character arcs.) 
you don’t have to reach or overanalyze to find evidence that the show was laying out indicating both tedtrent and tedbecca, as romantic ships. it is not crazy to pick up what the writers were putting down while literally just watching the show. anyway, this rant happened bc i was going through the tedtrent tag, and i will probably talk more about all of these unused chekhov’s in my eventual finale rant.

Welp, I be crying
I knew Rebecca would stay so less of a point but
Roy as the manager!!!
And yay Beard still a coach since he stayed!!!
And ahhh Roy working on his stuff with Dr. Sharon!!! (And then I’m hc-ing that he and Keeley eventually get together. If anyone had fic of that story please share 🙏
I do hope Jamie is happy and maybe finds someone nice and gets to keep being their sexy baybeh tho)
I already miss everyone 🥹
But yeah also totally agree with someone who said that’s they regressed Roy and Jamie over how they dealt with their relationship with Keeley, and that they were more mature about in past seasons before they had had as much personal growth. And agree some of that shit was sexist af
Edit assassin to add that also
-KBPR is cute but Barbara is a CFO and money person, not a PR person? Like I said it’s sweet but I think it’s a little much for my belief suspension
-and lasso back on the Roy Keeley thing. Their breakup I. The first place was fucking stupid. Like why did they even break up? Because they were “both so busy”? Cool that means they’d be understanding of the others business and might see each other much less, but wouldn’t it make the times they did that much sweeter for it? And if it’s because Roy thinks he’s a piece of shit that doesn’t deserve her… like, where were any of the seeds of that before? Most plausible explanation for why they are not yet back together come the finale, but Dumb for break up reason. Aiiiiiie I’m just so FRUSTRATED about this plot point feel free to come yell with me
