Fantastic interview all around. I disagree with Jasonā€¦ Ted Lasso is a seminal piece of work. History will prove this. We are in dark times and have been for awhile. There arenā€™t a lot of role models for being kind and caring. This show masterfully depicts emotional intelligence, honesty, healthy friendships, respect and compassion. And just as skillfully , it shows us how to resolve conflict , forgive, accept responsibility and have integrity. I donā€™t like it when films and tv shows manipulate our emotions and basically train us not to trust each other with our vulnerabilities. When I first started watching this show, I was immediately drawn in but kept expecting the rug to be pulled outā€¦ But it didnā€™t happen! Itā€™s been the soothing balm weā€™ve needed these last years and I hope it gets all the awards and recognition possible. Seriously, can we nominate it for a Pulitzer? Thank you Jason and everyone whose hands touched this beautiful show.

I donā€™t need there to be a season 4, but I feel so strongly that I could re-watch this series multiple times like a gift I get to continually unwrap and be blessed by the goodness therein.

Ted Lasso is my all time favorite show ever because it's so original, like a rare gem! There is no show that's literally every emotion in one show. The entire cast is just perfect together. Brilliant writing and acting, I just can't express how perfect this show is and I think it's why I am heartbroken that it's over because we become so invested in each character like family

Fantastic interview. I am in my 60ā€™s and picked up a love for soccer after my first two visits to the UK. My wife and I just got into Ted Lasso as my eyesight was poor with cataracts which has now been fixed. IMHO Ted Lasso is the smartest, funniest and best show in the history of TV.

I always thought Jason was a lot like Ted and it feels accurate after watching this interview. Jason is affable, honest, sincere and smart. His kids are so lucky to have him for their father!

We just binged Ted Lasso. What a gift to my soul, and this cast is absolutely incredible. The honesty each bring to their portrayals, exceptional craft all the way around.

Ted Lasso and After Life are the best modern day TV shows bar none.Jason is brilliant and Hannah Waddingham is simply gorgeous.

Thank you for this interview! After finishing season three I feel a bit like Iā€™m in mourningā€¦ not only for the storyline and the characters that have become like family, but for the loss of the dose of positivity each episode brought to all of our lives. If it canā€™t be Ted Lasso, I hope that whatever comes next will be provide a similar dose of positivity because we desperately need that in the world right now. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

This is an amazing series. Now a classic! It is almost unheard of for a series to have every season be exceptional, Ted Lasso makes the mark!

There are very few TV shows or movies is want to own copies of - most things are rented and gone, never to be bothered with. Ted Lasso is one that I would love to own - if only Apple would allow that! It is truly a masterclass in moving, life-altering entertainment.

Never mind how they managed to write all those jokes, I can't imagine how hard it was to deliver those lines without constantly just falling out. The delivery was immaculate. Incredible acting all around; the slightest glance or facial expression carries so much meaning.

Jason mentioned 2 iconic shows CHEERS & THE OFFICE(UK) a wonderful direct question: ā€œHas it dawned on you that you, Jason F-ing Sudeikis, have created an iconic show for the ages?!ā€

Why we didnā€™t love this hidden gem before. Following celebrities is not the right way to go but people like Jason are maybe the ones who deserve to look up to

Jason is so much like my late father, believing in the best of humanity, acknowledging that sarcasm only hurts and that we need more love and good natured laughter than hurting each other with wordsā€¦ Love this interview!

So thatā€™s what you look like, Guy. Iā€™ve listened to you on radio for so long! Your face is as happy as your voice. You and Jason make a great interview pairing.

SNL kicked butt BEST when Jason Sudeikis was a featured player. And just prior, when he was writing. He and Kristin Weig were epic. every time. And I just cannot get over how much I love Ted Lasso and completely forget that Lasso is being played (and written) by the same dude who made me stay up late on Saturday nights.
