Season 3 of the Emmy-winning Apple TV+ sensation begins Mar. 15. It's a pop-culture equivalent of a hug. TedLasso
the richer exploration of what was beneath Ted’s optimistic demeanor. And while the Cinderella story of the first season nailed every right note of the predictable narrative, Season 2’s exploration of what happens at the end of the fairy tale—maybe things aren’t always so great for Princess Cindy once she’s in that castl!—brought the sweetness ofSeason 3 opens with Jason Sudeikis as Ted, staring off into the distance, depressed and forlorn.
Don’t be alarmed; there’s no incessant wallowing to be fearful of. Sudeikis still gets to deliver a ticker tape of Lasso-isms. The genuine affection that’s grown between Ted, Rebecca, and the rest of the Richmond employees is irresistible and endearing. I can’t think of a show—even more traditional laugh-track sitcoms—on which people smile at each other as much as they do on this one. I almost feel ridiculous marveling at it, but it did really strike me.
The characters who had made great strides in their personal lives are all in “now what?” phases. It echoes not just Ted’s wondering of whether it’s right for him to still be in England, but something many of us are feeling, as we start to feel more emerged from the trauma of the last few years and unsure how to handle what that means in our lives.
But, again, what the early episodes of the season—we’ve seen four—mostly deliver is its version of that hug. It really is giving fans what they want, even if that means that the story arcs are frustratingly repetitive. Maximilian Osinski, in a new role that we won’t spoil, does a lot of work—some might say too much—to spice that up.
