I'm jealous of you two. Seeing Ted Lasso for the first time. This is probably my favorite television series of all time. It will make you cheer and cry. It's amazing.
Jason Sudeikis grew up and went to high school in Kansas. He's a KC Chiefs fan. The joke about him being a college football coach from Wichita State (a small Division 1 school in Kansas) is really funny if you're from Kansas because you would know that Wichita State hasn't had a football team since 1986.
He and Paul Rudd are from the same town in the KC area, as well (I lived in the next town over from Overland Park -- Shawnee -- for one year right after I graduated from college), which is wild. Also, Ted's running man dance at the start is based on something he used to do to make his basketball teammates laugh. He was a good basketball player, too, by the way; he played against Tyronn Lue, who now coaches the LA Clippers, in high school and went to junior college to play himself but I believe gave it up to pursue acting/comedy.
I graduated in 94 from Shawnee Mission North and I believe both those guys went to West. Pau is pretty old believe it or not, but Jason and I shared a few years I think.
@@TheBadgertwo Yeah, Rudd is 54 and Sudeikis is 48 so there's certainly a gap in there, and they never actually went to school together. But yep, they both went to Shawnee Mission West.
Some fun facts: Roy Kent is loosely based on Roy Keane. Also, AFC Richmond is loosely based on Crystal Palace. This show is incredible and I love that you guys are doing this. Keep it up!
This whole show came from an ad for the Premier League in America with Jason Sudekis as Ted Lasso coaching Tottenham. You can find them on TH-cam if you want.
One has to watch the series at least 3 times to appreciate the myriad callbacks to earlier moments in the series. It’s obscene how many there are and how well they’re done.
I didn’t start watching Ted Lasso until season 2 as I love football and I got hooked. Nathan is a genius. Roy Kent is my favourite character. Brett Goldstein started as a writer on the show, felt an affinity with Roy and did his own video for the producers saying if it was embarrassing they could destroy it and forget it. Subscribing as I type.
A couple years ago, Scott Servais, ,manager of the Seattle Mariners, used "Believe" in his talks about the team and the fans came to games with yellow "Believe" placards. It was an exciting season for the M's.
Would love to see you react to the US version of The Office . I’ve seen other reactors surprised how much they like it after only having seen the original.
@@DNReactsIt's definitely different from the british one in tone. So while they cover similar subject areas the show is quite different in application.
LOL Not sure if you have found out yet in the last three weeks, but long before "Ted Lasso" was a full show, it was a promotional ad (yes, literally a commercial) for NBC here in the states the year that they won the rights to the Premier League! And yes, that was *also* starring Jason Sudeikis, who back then was a recurring cast member on NBC's Saturday Night Live, or SNL (the whole idea behind the ad was that it was an SNL-like skit where, yes, an American football coach goes and coaches in the Premier League). And yes, the actor who played "Coach Beard" was indeed his assistant in that skit as well. And yes, many of the one-liner jokes (like the "Wales"/"How many countries are in this country?") were taken *directly* from that skit. I bring this up both because it's a hilarious initial skit and I'd love for you both to react to *that* as well (😂😂😂), but *also...* When Trent Crimm asks the question, "Is this all a big joke?" (which isn't on this video, but yes, for those who haven't watched or don't remember, *that* was the question he asked about this entire premise of an American football coach who has "never set foot in England" and has no idea what the rules of pro soccer even are who has been tasked with coaching a Premier League team), it's meant to be a meta-commentary about the fact that *yes indeed,* this entire premise *was* meant initially to be a big extended joke (by NBC, to promote the Premier League after winning the American rights to broadcast the league's matches)! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thought you might enjoy hearing that - and yes, I absolutely believe you would enjoy seeing that initial Ted Lasso commercial by NBC.
One of my fave show ever! I have finished all 3 seasons, started to watch it right after they finished S1. I love Jason Sudeikis, British humor and also I grew up watching football (the English one 😄), so yes, was pleasantly shocked when I found a show with all three. Enjoy the ride. Cheers!
You can actually see people walking around here in the US wearing AFC Richmond shirts. This show basically became "event television" here. This series proves that it's the story that matters - it happens to take place around a fictional football club and they handle the sports parts really well. From what I understand, the Premier League was very reticent to allow any of their trademarks to be used during filming. Then, it became a huge international hit and the PL said "Ok, we'll allow more in Season 2" :)
Robot Chicken is a stop motion sketch show on Adult Swim. a lot of toys (gi joes, he-man, legos, etc) are used as well has custom built action figures. its mostly pop culture stuff but the skits are funny
I held off on watching this show for quite some time thinking it would just be a silly american comedy with easy jokes made for cheap laughs. But the premise sounded nice, so I gave it a shot. Man was I wrong. This show is amazing. Great characters, good story lines and it made me both laugh and cry so many times. I just love it. You are certainly in for a very, very good time.
Aw yes. Amazing show. This is seriously one of the best shows ever made. Looks like you guys are a good portion through on patreon. Hope you’re enjoying it.
Ted Lasso is one of my favorite tv shows of all time! It’s really cool to watch a couple of Brits watch it (American here). I have subscribed to follow your Ted Lasso journey!
I don't remember if Liverpool pops up in the series. They fly to Liverpool to play Everton this season. Klopp might make a cameo at some point. Man City ends up being a big player in the show. Pep shows up in the last season.
I don’t normally like watching reaction videos but whenever there’s one that reacts to Ted Lasso I always look forward to watching it. It’s like watching my friends watch my all time favorite show. I’m gonna be following you guys for sure!
@@DNReacts I envy you, I wish I could watch it for the first time again 😬 I am on my fourth watch, it’s just that kind of show! And you pick up something new every rewatch 🥰 At the end of my first watch I just thought - what do I do now, I can’t not have Ted Lasso in my life?! So I went straight back to the start 😅 my favourite show of all time ❤️
@barbrogullvag it’s definitely a show I’ll go back to and watch it in my own time instead of weekly for the channel 😂 we are up to Season 2 Episode 6 on our Patreon!
Hope you keep it up and are more generous with what bits you keep on TH-cam. Felt a little stripped compared to other reactions. Don't have the funds to do patreon at the moment but hope to see more.
@DNReacts I know it's gotta be stripped, but I've watched a few other reactors do Ted Lasso because it's a comfort show of mine and I feel like they were less Skippy. Just do your best and you'll get a Like and Comment on each reaction until I get a job and can do Patreon
Love this! This is a brilliant show. Jason Sudeikis was a long time cast member on SNL. This character started out as some shorts on ESPN (I think). You probably know all of this by now. Roy Kent is the greatest character! He was actually a writer on the show, but just turned out to be the best fit for playing Roy. I’m so glad you guys watched this show!
I remember seeing the description for the show and thinking how unusual it sounded which is what got me curious. I really didn't know Jason Sudeikis at all and none of the British cast but I gave it a shot. From the first episode my hate for Apple TV grew for making me wait an entire week for the next episode, not to mention the time between seasons (series). Everyone on that show was the perfect choice and I don't think that the casting director, Theo Park, gets near enough credit for putting together such an amazing ensemble.
I grew up watching football and going to Coventry City matches at the old Highfield Road stadium. When the big money and the prima donnas took over I lost interest and stopped watching. I understand football though, and was unsure how a comedy show could be made, especially by an American company, that respected the game but was also appealing to both fans and newbies alike. I started watching Ted Lasso with a sceptical eye, but was won over almost immediately. It is very funny, but also heartwarming and moving. I absolutely love it, it’s like a warm hug in a crazy world. I’ve watched it several times from start to finish and never tire of it. It is listed as a comedy, but it’s really a drama with funny stuff, you’ll see that as you get into it. Some people didn’t like series three, but I thought it was perfect and completed the story arcs of all of the characters, maybe not always in the way people expected, but it was satisfying nonetheless. I’d love another series or a spin off featuring some of the characters. I envy you getting to watch this fantastic show for the first time. Enjoy!
This movie hits you with a lot of quick comedy, but it also has a lot of emotional moments. Definitely worth a watch and hope y'all enjoy. The characters definite gain A LOT more depth the further you get into it.
This show, along with Afterlife, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Only Murders in the Building, and Shrinking are great. They are creative, thought provoking, have great casts that all develop along the way. Definitely finish this series.
As an American, I think Ted Lasso is a fairly typical American-friendly, optimistic to a fault, etc. Wonder how accurate the Brits are depicted in the show… ✌️
Were you aware that Ted Lasso started as a character used in adverts for NBC Premier League coverage in the States a few years before they turned it into the show you're watching?
LOVED Ted Lasso.. I have ZERO experience with Soccer, but after Watching Ted Lasso, I started YouTubing Mesi, Ronaldo... etc.. I know I said this on Discord, but I bet a lot of American subscribers would love for y'all to break our Soccer Cherry and teach us, "The Beautiful Game" Rick Charleston SC
Me too. I am now an EFL football fan because of this show (and also Welcome to Wrexham). Took me a few months to wrap my head around promotion/relegation and the myriad of leagues and cups, trophies and titles. Still working on the offside rule and what each position is responsible for doing. #1 is usually the goalkeeper, #10 is often the striker/best player -- It actually surprised me to learn that certain positions usually wore a particular number.
I just started following you guys and I'm going to watch all the way through. I'm fairly new at football having jumped on that Wrexham train 🙂 but I never was an American football fan really. I can count on one hand how many super bowls I've watched. But the English football is a lot more active and a lot more personal? I can't think of a better term for it. But anyway I also am a big Liverpool fan, because when you're in League one or two you got to have somebody bigger to look up to 🙂 so Liverpool gets my vote when it comes to the premier League until Wrexham gets there! Peace brothers!
He's not really doing much of an accent compared to how his voice normally sounds, but he's basically talking like people from rural Kansas would talk. It's a sort of twang, that will also mix in terms that you'll often also hear in the South like "y'all, howdy, etc" but it's more common among farmers and ranchers in states like Kansas and Oklahoma.
Oh, thank goodness the YT matrix spit out your reaction for me. I'm a footy fan in the US (ATL! UTD! Atlanta is the club for me!! - I waited 25yrs for the stupid MLS to finally give us a franchise), and have often wondered what people elsewhere in the world (especially from the home of * real * football) would think of the show. I've been telling people here that you don't need to know anything about football to enjoy the show, but for fans of the game over here, there are plenty of 'easter eggs' in it. Kit man (Nate) shouting at them to get off the pitch as he runs across it, etc. When the series was new, I often had to stop playback to tell some of my friends who aren't into the sport WTF I was laughing about. Some background: Jason Sudeikis was a performer on our NBC network's "Saturday Night Live" satire show years ago. NBC had gained the TV rights to show EPL games in the US, and asked him to make promotional videos for it. Those vids were actually 'American football coach hired as manager in EPL'. Still can't believe it was turned into a show, and worked out so well. Brendan Hunt ("Coach Beard") is an American who fell in love with the game while living in Amsterdam. He was one of the writers. Brett Goldstein ("Roy Kent") was also a writer, but as he wrote, he thought.."Hey, I could play that guy!" Auditioned, and got the job. He's said in interviews that the character was actually inspired by Roy Keane. Can't say more without spoilers. Gleefully awaiting your next reaction!
I can tell a lot of the Ted lasso sayings and wordplay are going to go over your heads...Like the" comfortable with riding a horse you're doing it wrong" is an actual saying it's a euphemism
Hey, we’ve been trying to get Sandlot and Coach Carter up for months now but we can’t get them past the checks 😭 We will give Miracle a go and see if we have any better luck. It’ll be a much shortened version though, we can only put the full reaction on Patreon

Division 2, not Division 1.
@tate8674 Wichita State is absolutely D1. Not sure why they called them D2 in the show.
This show is about as perfect a show as is possible to make. A really really well done 3-season arc.
And I thought the ending was pitch perfect. That's rare these days. Very satisfying show.
"He's here! He's there! He's everywhere! Roy Kent!" --you'll see. And Coach Lasso's nickname from the fans is awesome.
Amazing nickname for Ted 😂
I accidentally caught a little bit of a Crystal Palace home match recently and said "holy shit that's Nelson Road" 😂
That’s amazing 😂
@@DNReacts They played The Palace Anthem "Glad All Over" in the credits at the end..
Some fun facts: Roy Kent is loosely based on Roy Keane. Also, AFC Richmond is loosely based on Crystal Palace. This show is incredible and I love that you guys are doing this. Keep it up!
Thank you so much! The Roy Keane comment makes sense 😂
The fictional Nelson Road is filmed at Selhurst Park
This whole show came from an ad for the Premier League in America with Jason Sudekis as Ted Lasso coaching Tottenham. You can find them on TH-cam if you want.
Finally! I’ve been dying to see a Brits react to this show 😍
This series is brilliant. Complete genius from beginning to end.
It’s a feel good story in a world in need of one!
Perfectly put ❤️
One has to watch the series at least 3 times to appreciate the myriad callbacks to earlier moments in the series. It’s obscene how many there are and how well they’re done.
So glad you guys are reacting to this show, I think it’s great
We love it! We are into the second season on our Patreon 😀
Buckle up guys! This series is nothing short of brilliant. Can't wait to go on this journey with you.❤❤
He’s putting on a southern American accent. He has a midwestern accent in real life.

Welcome to the party, gents. Will be watching every upload for this one
Among the many things this show does well, it's very good at blending the English and the American.
It does it very very well, great show!
@@DNReacts You guys should follow this through, it gets VERY VERY good.
Please keep reacting to the show. I just binged the whole series in a week.

Love Ted Lasso. Haven't seen it for a while. No spoilers but looking forward to re watching with you guys.
Ah, I envy you gents the ability to see it from the beginning again. What a gem of a show.
The Dart Game scene is my absolute favorite scene in the series.
My favourite scene in ANY TV show ❤️

But anyway I also am a big Liverpool fan, because when you're in League one or two you got to have somebody bigger to look up to 🙂 so Liverpool gets my vote when it comes to the premier League until Wrexham gets there! Peace brothers!
Subscribed just for this genius show that never really had the impact here in the UK because of the platform it’s on
He's not really doing much of an accent compared to how his voice normally sounds, but he's basically talking like people from rural Kansas would talk. It's a sort of twang, that will also mix in terms that you'll often also hear in the South like "y'all, howdy, etc" but it's more common among farmers and ranchers in states like Kansas and Oklahoma.
Some of the shirts he wears are nods to Kansas City.
Oh, thank goodness the YT matrix spit out your reaction for me. I'm a footy fan in the US (ATL! UTD! Atlanta is the club for me!! - I waited 25yrs for the stupid MLS to finally give us a franchise), and have often wondered what people elsewhere in the world (especially from the home of * real * football) would think of the show. I've been telling people here that you don't need to know anything about football to enjoy the show, but for fans of the game over here, there are plenty of 'easter eggs' in it. Kit man (Nate) shouting at them to get off the pitch as he runs across it, etc. When the series was new, I often had to stop playback to tell some of my friends who aren't into the sport WTF I was laughing about.
Some background: Jason Sudeikis was a performer on our NBC network's "Saturday Night Live" satire show years ago. NBC had gained the TV rights to show EPL games in the US, and asked him to make promotional videos for it. Those vids were actually 'American football coach hired as manager in EPL'. Still can't believe it was turned into a show, and worked out so well. Brendan Hunt ("Coach Beard") is an American who fell in love with the game while living in Amsterdam. He was one of the writers. Brett Goldstein ("Roy Kent") was also a writer, but as he wrote, he thought.."Hey, I could play that guy!" Auditioned, and got the job. He's said in interviews that the character was actually inspired by Roy Keane.
Can't say more without spoilers. Gleefully awaiting your next reaction!
I love this show, it does alot right
It’s so good!
I can tell a lot of the Ted lasso sayings and wordplay are going to go over your heads...Like the" comfortable with riding a horse you're doing it wrong" is an actual saying it's a euphemism
Are you guys going to post your reaction to Miracle or is that Patreon only?
Hey, we’ve been trying to get Sandlot and Coach Carter up for months now but we can’t get them past the checks 😭 We will give Miracle a go and see if we have any better luck. It’ll be a much shortened version though, we can only put the full reaction on Patreon
Me whenever I start a new fifa career
Yo, you guys need to see Shorsey.
If you’ve seen the baseball movie “Major League”… Season 1 of Ted Lasso is basically the same plot
I wouldn't say the US office is better than the UK. They are very different, and you don't feel The Office hit it's stride till into Season 2.
