"thank you, fuck you" might be the most relatable thing any show has ever done. Parents, kids alike, everyone needs to be able to say how they feel
Yeah, I just rewatched it and realized that Jamie said that it was what he would say to his dad then it’s exactly what Ted said to his mom.
This show has had so many parallels to the Wizard of Oz during it's run. Ted is Dorothy, running away from his problems in Kansas. Nate is the cowardly lion, who learns to be brave, and grows under Ted's leadership. We've got Roy at the tin man, who becomes empathetic and compassionate under Ted's influence. Beard is the scarecrow, who becomes the brains behind the team's success with his football knowledge, chess skills, etc. You can argue Rupert is the bad witch or he's the wizard, a fraud pulling the strings behind the scenes. Some other tidbits - we see the house spinning while Ted plays pinball, the same that spins in the movie during the tornado scene. During the You've Got Mail scene, Somewhere Over the Rainbow is playing. The closing song of this episode is a cover of "Home" from the musical The Wiz, which is a reimagined story based off of the Wizard of Oz. Lastly Dottie, is a nickname for Dorothy, so we also get another Dorothy visiting from Kansas in this one. We know what the truth bomb has to be based on these parallels. What does Dorothy do at the end of The Wizard of Oz? She goes back home to Kansas, like Ted will.
I'd say Jamie is more like the Scarecrow, learning to use his brain and think before he speaks. Beard has mostly stayed the same throughout the whole show
@@thenemesis8438 I think it works for a lot of the characters! I think you can also argue Rebecca is the lion, who learns to run the team and becomes brave and stands up for herself. (Funny call back to the lion vs panda conversation as well in season 1).
@@thenemesis8438 Beard is obviously Toto...tagging along with Ted and fiercely protective, like a guard dog.
I was starting to think it resembled Mary Poppins a bit. Ted flies in, ends up helping a bunch of people with their personal issues thus making them better people, then flies back out when they no longer need him. True he uses a plane instead of an umbrella. lol - Adam
What great comments, love it!
Favourite part of Nate being under the desk was when he pushed out the bin with his leg from under the desk to make sure the cleaners emptied it 😂
Yeah 😂😂
I think it was so they didn't look under for it, but yeah funny and sad. lol.
Yeah I'm with a @jpmonto01. I thought it was more of a "don't get busted" move, but no reason it can't be both.
They must be really bad cleaners if they didnt' notice him lol
Ms Barnaby is the woman from the auction in season 1.
I think the focus shifting off Ted is the show telling us that all the people he's touched are now better able to work out their own issues and are striving to be better on their own. It's basically saying that he's already helped them become better and if he leaves, they'll be fine.
I believe the Lasso effect is real
I do too.
So much happened in this episode that I loved! I can't believe we're to the finale now! I'm not ready. The look between Sam and Rebecca during the ending scene of "You've Got Mail" where Meg Ryan says "I wanted it to be you" was...interesting. The relationship between Roy & Jamie (total BFFs whether they want to admit it or not...lol) has become one of my favorite things in this show. Roy's goodbye to Jamie's mom was hilarious. The Beard/Nate scene - oh my heart. So moving. Ted/Dottie - again, moving. As a mom, what she said about there being wins and loses, but mostly ties. That got me. Seriously, one of the best episodes of the entire three seasons. Looking forward to your finale review!
They also were sharing again how Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks screen names were Shopgirl and NY152, and Rebecca and Sam's screen names on Bantr were Bossgirl and LDN152.
The Mask of Zorro (Zoreaux). Yes, I know he goes by Van Damme, but that's the joke.
Hilarious!
Man, fellas, all I can say... I'm not ready for this to end. I know the original arc was supposed to be three seasons, but if they bring it back, Richmond has to be qualified for the Champions League (Top 4 in the premier league). That opens it to so much. Saying that, there's been so much development around the show it's insane. I'm thankful for what we have but man, hoping for more; even if it takes a couple years with the strike(s).
The reveal of the Keeley poster was great. They knew people would be hoping the Roy poster was going to be there since Jamie told Roy he had his poster on his wall when he was a kid at the charity auction.
Someone on Twitter noticed that Roy had signed that poster in the past.
@@fayesouthall6604 In his tiny little handwriting
They’ve really found their groove with the last 3 episodes. I think you all were right in that we’re probably not going see Ted tell Rebecca he has to go home. Finally I think we still need to see more contrition/apologies from Nate.
Van Damme deserves appreciation for his man of the match performance, went crazy
Can you imagine growing up idolizing someone to the point where you have their poster on your wall, and then later in life actually being one of his closest friends! Not to mention Keely to boot! This is a great episode.
Great review as always. Is there an Emmy award for best casting director? Because all of these characters are played by actors who are AMAZING in their roles.
It's always funny to see audition tapes from other people in later years once we identify specific actors with roles they played, but you are spot on - every single member of this cast played their roles perfectly.
Why be Van Damme when you could be Zorro (Zoreaux)...mask and all.
Loved the white board when Roy called for Jamie in the boot room. Midnight Putine. Upside Down Taxi, Loki's Toboggan, La Cucaracha, Seven Finger Steve, Leaky Tap.
I really hope for a Ted/Beard heart to heart next episode
These episodes keep getting better and better. Without the Keely/Jack story line, this would be a near perfect season.
ya that whent no where and jack was just annoying but still my fav season of the whole series
Eh, it just needed to be shortened, not removed.
Why do you assume Beard would just follow Ted back to the States? If anything Beards arc has been one of self discovery outside his dependency on Ted.
beard is staying. i think beard or nate are gonna be the head coach
He’s got Jane he’ll stay
Adam has said it for nearly every video we’ve done this season. I’m good with the self-discovery arc, but I also love the loyalty and the exceptional bond that he and Ted have; Whatever makes Beard happy. -Andrew
i just love y'all's vids & will be sad that our next one is the final one. 😭 i'm also prayin for a three-hour series finale. lmaooo as much as i don't think i'm emotionally prepared for this series to end, the writers have done a wonderful job of emotionally preparing us all. i loved this episode so much, from jamie & his mom, to his dad in rehab (for a sec i thought he'd *_died_* when his friend said "would have been proud" 😳) to beard's powerful scene with nate. it was all just fantastic. i wouldn't be surprised if beard stays. i could see an emotional heart-to-heart with ted in the finale where he basically says that there's really nothin for him to return home to, unlike ted's situation. we'll always be bffs but it's time for me to stand on my own type'a deal. the thing that stuck out most to me in this ep was how when momma lasso first shows up, it's like everythang she did or said was annoying to ted. i was literally yellin at the screen "bro this is what folks had to endure when YOU got here!" they are literally twin personalities. 😂 i wonder how thangs will go with the rupert storyline, but most of all i wanna see rebecca's stranger make a return. 🥰 (pls do shrinking next! 🤗)
I really enjoyed Shrinking. I'm interested in the idea of covering Season 2. My thoughts on the first several episodes are on this channel! -Andrew [link: th-cam.com/video/ikBOZ14DhgI/w-d-xo.html ]
@@ItTakes2Takes Have S1 DL-ed and ready to watch, but have been putting it off after reading a troubling article about how the premise perpetuates a longstanding history of Hollywood misogyny. Never had to worry about that with Ted Lasso or Schitt's Creek, so I'm still leery of getting into it...
I love the scene with Ted showing beard the video of Nate. The shows at its best when Ted is savvy emotionally but soft handed. He knew that would spur beard to forgive Nate and he didn’t have to do much himself
I understand better now why Beard is so fiercely protective of Ted...but by the same token, why did Ted need to push him toward forgiveness and giving Nate a 2nd chance after Ted gave him a 2nd and 3rd??
So like most, I do think Ted's news is that he is quitting after the season. However I think is surprised by the news that Michelle and Dr Jacob's weekend in Paris was actually them looking for a place to live in England am they can reunite Henry with his dad. The happy ending is that while Ted was willing to move back to the states to do what's right as a father he gets to do that while staying with the new family and life he has created in England.
Bonus, he ends up with Rebecca making her a step-mother, and thus all of the psychic's predictions come true.
Every time I watch this show I pick up on something else! The older woman at the start (Cheryl Barnaby, who was bidding on Jamie in the "For the Children" episode) quotes Lady Gaga (Poker Face) and then Ted makes the little monster claw at her. Love that this show loves Gaga :)
Beard sang Bad Romance at karaoke after they beat Everton in S1, although you only catch the end. It's before Rebecca sings let it go.
Favorite Meg Ryan - 'French Kiss'. Favorite Tom Hanks 'Road to Perdition'.
french kiss is so under rated. but for me its harry met sally
french kiss is my fave movie of all time
For those not familiar with football,that coach all dressed in black is Guardiola...the ACTUAL coachnof Manchester City.
Having him, obvs agreeing with every word, speaking Ted’s lines from S1 was lovely.
I was happy to hear you mention Joe Versus the Volcano. It rules! This episode took a bit to get rolling for me, but by the end I was enthralled.
My favourite thing was Roy Kent saying he was ok with Jamie playing injured and Beard saying to him that's why Roy can't walk up stairs 😂
Off screen, will told Higgins about Nate and told the team. So Higgins suggested they approach Nate. How Ted doesn’t judge beards reaction to Nate’s return he just gives him an out. It’s wonderful. What he tells Jamie at pitch side is also great. Ted then uses ‘thank you and fuck you’ with his mom.
Man this episode had me in tears I wasn’t expecting Ted mom and Jamie mom to be in this episode
I hope they don’t have an obvious ending, and go do something weird like “it’s 5 years in the future” finale.
Nate is coaching the team and reminiscing about beating Rupert.
Ted is back at home with his family walking with his son. His ex wife comes to pick him up and everyone is ok.
Roy is with the teacher watching Jamie on a reality show.
Rebecca is walking down the hall with Higgins talking about how Edwin Okufu was arrested in a weird Crypto scheme …and she is surprisingly joined by her new son….who’s noticeably…..athletic.
Edwin Akufu arrested for Crypto scheme, yes!
@@celinelia8127 Or for publicly defecating on a mannequin. :D
Coach Beard needs a spin off so we can see his full backstory.
Better Call Beard
we got it dude...what more do we need to know?
@@DannyCosmos are you always this cheerful?
@@laurakali6522 yes.
I feel Coach Beard May stay in London, he did confess to Dottie Lasso that he is in love with Jayne.
Where can I get a Believe shirt?! I love it!!! Love your reaction videos. Thanks, Adam and Andrew!! 👍🌞
I bought that "Believe" shirt at Kohl's. Pretty sure they are on the Warner Bros store website as well. Can get lots of Ted Lasso stuff there. Glad you are enjoying the videos. - Adam
@It Takes 2 Takes Awesome, thank you Adam! 🌞👍
@@ItTakes2Takes BTW, I still want to see something come of Rebecca's little Dutch Guy connection...❤️
Oh I have already looked at the WB store and didn't see them yet. lol - Adam
Jamie’s dad had a very proud look on his face! That made me happy❤
@Joli Have you watched Ted Lasso? It's a show about (in Ted's words) always understanding that people might be hurting inside and trying to forgive. Jaime's dad was reprehensible, and what he has done can't be taken back. But he most certainly became that person because reprehensible things were done TO him in his time. Doesn't that warrant some empathy, or at least an open mind. Should a dog that was beaten for years and bites out of fear be put down, or should it be shown care and affection and given a chance to overcome its fear? Why can't his Dad Does be proud of his son seeing him overcome what he himself could not? [Heck, the show even made a point to humanize Rupert with the stories of him as a boy loving football.] If nothing else, why be so against his Dad being proud of him when it would mean so much to Jaime himself? Jamie is the only one who gets to decide how to react to his Dad, just like Beard doesn't get to decide for Ted whether he forgives Nate or not.
Jade's parents own the restaurant. Derick doesn't even know that.
Joe vs the Volcano is AMAZING and beautiful and weirdly deep. Absolutely agree about it.
"I tell you one thing, though. Wherever we go, whatever we do, we're gonna take this luggage with us!" lol....love that movie. - Adam
@@ItTakes2Takes "I'm not sick except for this terminal disease which has no symptoms."
The scene where Joe is finally at rock bottom and the moon rises from the ocean gets me every single time. Wish I had seen it on the big screen. Reminds me to be Thankful for my life too. 😢
Im going to take the leap and say Beard is staying. He actually built a life in London. Clearly, with Beard night out episode, his out of no where night in Amstedam, he is quite comfortable in Europe. And though we don't like her, he is in a relationship. I think Roy will be named head coach, and Nate will work his way back up eventually and be given assistant coach. Also are we to assume Rebecca is aware of Nate and she wants to offer him the job since Higgins knows???
A few thoughts:
1. Loved the moms in the episode. I was irked with the abrupt arrival of Dottie but got over it. The last scene with her and Ted was so touching. Jamie's mother was perfection as well
2. Nate's possible return to the team was tooo rushed. I couldnt see the guys really showing up asking him back, even at Huggins request. Or at least have them yell at him 1st
3. These awkward googly eyes bc Sam and Rebecca these past 2 episodes is just silly. They dont make any sense. Sam has a possible romantic connection with the chef and boat dude seems like such a better love interest. They were cute while it lasted but let it go.
4. Speaking of letting it go, Roy might need to let Keely go. Though he was the better dude, I actually think she and Jamie make more sense. Jamie's response to the leaked video. Keeley quickly letting go of Roy's hand. Jamie and Keeley are still connected. I know they slept together but I think they are done. Roy can date the teacher
5. The green matchbook still doesnt make sense. What is Rebecca's mom future look like.
6. Im glad Ted is going back to America but I really hope there is no chance in HELL he and his wife get back together.
As soon as I saw your video I knew what I was doing for the next half hour
they are getting faster with the reactions but still too long after the episode...i need them on thursday
@@DannyCosmos i hope this is a joke, bc ppl have lives. and producing quality content takes a while.
@@BasesLoadedLacquer yeah but they were releasing them on Sunday
We both have full time jobs. Andrew has another TH-cam channel he also works on as well as a family that I think want him to spend a little time with them. Add on that with the weather getting nicer there is yard work and other outdoor activities that pull us away. It was much easier during the COVID lockdown. :) We have been loving the response to these videos which is what is motivating us to try to record them as soon as possible so we can try to get them out as well. Some weeks work better than others with turn around time. Really glad you are liking them enough to want them out faster. :) - Adam
@@ItTakes2Takes yeah after i watch the episode i cant wait to see you guys react it. i get it you guys have lives. glad your taken them out faster and no rush. thanks.
Running list of loose ends:
Ted leaving
Michelle & Dr Jacob?
Last game - playing West Ham?
Is Jamie playing?
Will Zava come back in his place?
Roy/Keeley
Sassy Smurf
Dutch guy/Rebecca pregnant (matchbox)/Sam
Nate’s apology
New coach?
Beard leaving? Jane?
Rupert/Bex
Dr Sharon
They hit every single one. Amost like they knew wha they were doing. :) And while they left it open to interpretation I like to think that Dr. Jacob not being at Henry's game in the last scene means he is gone. Good riddance - I think Ted and Michelle will be better co-parents without him and his ironic low-self-esteem around pooping on anything he isn't part of.
I love that even minor characters are getting development. Jade is inherently a plot device, a motivator for Nate in various ways, even from her first appearance. She still is, but in a redefined way that's interesting. She's an active part of a plot now rather than a passive one.
Bex, pretty much drawn by necessity very shallowly originally, in her last appearance before this got some subtle but effective character development revealed by her sarcasm about Rupert, and now we can take some pretty good guesses what's happening next with her and the Assistant and Rebecca (it seems like a setup for the Assistant having gotten pregnant, then kicked to the curb by Rupert, then her revealing all to Bex as retaliation--with the likely outcome of Bex divorcing Rupert, probably taking his CURRENT Football Team, and Rebecca adopting this baby).
We got info on Mae in the last few eps too.
Heck... I'm half expecting the three Superfans and the Bus Driver to get some moments next episode too.
Was she passive, or does she simply refuse to give anything to people who are not honest with themselves or with her? I think she just has standards and until Nate grew out of his insecurities he wasn't worth her time in her (reasonable) opinion.
Joe VS The Volcano is the best Hanks/Ryan movie. I’ll die on that hill!
Random question about season 2, episode 8: I was recently rewatching the whole run and noticed something strange about the above episode. I initially watched it through AppleTV+, so ‘officially’ here in the Uk, but when rewatching I was using “different means” shall we say. Sure you can figure it out. Anyway, there’s a bit where Sam turn up at Rebecca’s house, and he goes inside and they kiss, and so on. On this rewatch - that scene was edited out.
Anyone know why? Was that a US edit? Or perhaps somewhere else?
Found it very strange but came here to watch your review if that episode, but can’t find it. Episode 7 is there, and then episode 9.
Anyone have any ideas?
That scene was included here in the US. And when I used 'other means' myself. 👀 By which, of course, I mean deep meditation and memory association...
@@ulfsam-mule-son9726 I wonder what region it was edited out of. I only asked if it was the US because these guys are American, but my initial thought was maybe China, if it’s aired there(?).
Weird, regardless of where it was shown this way
@@chrisknight2631 Makes sense.
Personally, I think Beard will stay and this will give him and Ted an opportunity to say their goodbyes. Beard has been loyal to Ted for so long, but I think he's ready to be his own man, possibly with Nate. I do think it will be interesting whether Richmond wins it all. I think the fans want it, and it would be awkward if Nate comes back and loses the game. Did they say who the opponent would be? I feel it has to be West Ham because of its relevance to Nate and Rebecca. Another loose end is Rebecca and Sam. I think it's a little late for Rebecca to be pregnant with the Dutch guy's kid. I think they might end with a scene a year after the last game where you find out how everyone ends up.
Joe vs the Volcanoe FTW!
I’ll be curious if he leaves or if there is some twist (like maybe Henry moves there?) Also I’m wondering if we’ll ever see it addressed about Michelle dating their former counselor. I’m starting to think no.
Keeley might be finally taking time for herself and choose to do work on herself before jumping into a relationship again like she always has. Roy has to be patient until she finds herself. Empower Keeley.
I'm sure the last ep will be 3 or four hours long (please!) I think at this point the show trusts the audience to accept what's gone on off camera as the most likely thing to have happened, given the changes in everyone around Ted. I know Wizard of Oz is a big thing, but in a way he's Mary Poppins with a better accent.
👍🏾
Beard doesn’t need to leave with Ted. He can stay with Roy and Nate and get to be near his girlfriend.
Are you guys emotionally drained from the finale baha. When will be get the final reaction? Will we be blessed with a complete viewing of the entire episode?
Lol well it was a really long episode to edit, and I had a large project that required some field work/editing unrelated to this channel over the weekend. Trying to upload the finale today but getting hit with some copyright issues. We’ll get there 💪 -Andrew
Update: 4pm ET 🔥🔥 th-cam.com/video/zx0fo2fGqRs/w-d-xo.html
I personally think beard is going to stay because like he said he's in love with Jane.
im gonna use alot of wrestling lingo here... but here we go..Nnates redemption has been a let down because he didnt go full heel he should of gone full villain and at least half season be the bad guy but they didnt go full heel full bad guy and they started his redemption and face turn right away. it was very under whelming. they should of comitted to him being bad.
I don't like the Nate "redemption" arc. Why did the players go from fiery hatred, to "nate the great" without us seeing it? Feels fake and rushed.
"Why did the players go from fiery hatred, to "nate the great" without us seeing it?" Why the shift from hatred to support? We saw it with Beard firsthand in this episode - the answer is: Ted.
One of the biggest themes of this show is forgiveness and second chances, whether people have redeemed themselves, earned them, or not. We see Ted encourage Jamie to forgive his father. Has he redeemed himself? Absolutely not. Ted forgave Rebecca in season 1 when she didn't deserve it and he gave her another chance. Ted gave Jamie another chance to be on the team in season 2 before he deserved it, and he proved himself and he has been great since. Why does Nathan need redemption before coming back? Why can't we follow Ted's lead and example? We can forgive him, even though he has work to do, and hope he takes the opportunity to improve and make amends after he comes back.
Agree. Nate said some really horrible things to Collin. I don't remember him apologizing for that. I mean, he said some really nasty things.
@@julieharden2433 Nate apologized to Colin already in front of the team at practice in 2x07.
i dont like it either but i dont think it was rushed if anything his redemption started in the first episode and i think he should of been the main bad guy . he didnt go full heel. they should of made him the main villain instead they started his redemption right away
Eating kebabs 20 mins before a Premier League level workout ... GG. xd
