Jamie remembers every single detail from his trip with his mom to Amsterdam but almost nothing when he went with his dad, great subtle writing!! Love this show

Zlatan (who Zava is based on) actually paid for a full page in LA Times which he left blank except for the text: "Dear Los Angeles, you're welcome" when he signed for Galaxy

If you go back and look Jade is cold to Nate whenever Nate tries to impress her or demand things. There first interaction is often confused because it looks like she will not give Nate the window table. If you rewatch that she has to ask Derek. Derek is the one who shoots down giving the table to Nate. She hates working for Derek because he is always fawning over people like Anastasia and Nate when he is a premier league coach. Once Nate acts real with her she opens up.

"I weren't being ironic, I was being hypocritical" is one of my favorite Jamie lines in the whole series. He's grown so much from the self-obsessed ignoramus he was in the first season.

“It’s just poopeh.” - Jamie

of course Rupert has a freaking Death Star window in the office

The whole Dr. Jake thing is even worse when you factor in that he was Michelle’s individual therapist before they began marriage counseling. That was something that should never have happened-he should have told her to go to someone else when she and Ted started their sessions. He is just a walking ethics violation.

When you were noticing Zava's back tattoo and said "Jesus!" - the theme from Jesus Christ Superstar was playing 😂

The Dr Jacob thing hits even harder when earlier Ted said he felt like the therapy sessions were a setup.

The fact that Higgins on screen wife is his real wife is just so wholesome

I read or heard somewhere that Phil Dunster purposely did the accent that exaggerated on "poopeh" because he was trying to get Bret Goldstein to laugh.

Zava is based off a real player called Zlatan Ibrahimovic

When Nate's heel turn at the end of Season 2 was revealed, Sudeikis explained that there would only be three seasons. He said they would mirror the original Star Wars trilogy. Nate is Anakin. He was always going to be redeemed. Rupert is Palpatine. He was always going down the shaft.

Lol Jade’s deal is she’s stereotypical polish no nonsense personality. Every time Nate tried showing off, including name dropping Roy when they first met and him showing off the model, she humbled him back down to earth. She made him likable again.

After the " your dad a tree " line ted goes " hey, speaking of trees who we all rooting for today? "

I am not much for sport at all but as a swede I really enjoyed Zava in the show. That is just straight up Zlatan.

Danny was lying down because the wall often jumps to try to block the free kick. Free kickers got wise to this and occasionally kicked the ball on the ground, underneath the wall. A defender lies on the ground to prevent this.

Ruperts office is styled after the throne room in Return of the Jedi i believe, which is why it looks 'evil'

"I mean, you used to run like you were angry at the grass. You'd kick the ball like you'd caught it fucking your wife, for Christ's sake. But that anger doesn't come out anymore when you play. But it's still in here" *points to Roy's heart* "And I'm afraid of what it'll do to you if you just keep it all for yourself" -- Nathan Shelley (my fav moment in the whole show)

6:56 To be fair, if I had Rupert's money, and a need for an office, I too would style it like the Emperor's Throne on the Death Star. 8:46 The first time a person hears "Poopeh" is a pivotal day in their life. 💩🤣 33:17 Good call Simone. The music is indeed from Jesus Christ Superstar. Fun Fact: The Rice & Webber concept album starred Murray Head, brother of Anthony Stewart Head, as Judas. 1:01:22 Every plot in this episode is excellent, but this is Certified Platinum.🤣🥲 1:06:05 I was so proud of myself for immediately getting "Piggy Stardust" that I actually hurt my shoulder a little. 🐽🌠

If my marriage counselor starting dating my wife, basically no matter how far afterward it was or whether or not an official board would do anything about it, I would promote it as much as possible around that guy's business for like the rest of that guy's career. Anybody who is thinking about seeing that guy for help absolutely has a need and a right to know that that's what that guy is like.

The Amsterdam episode is one of my favorites! Cultural stuff: houseboat guy - "He's not rude, he's just Dutch". Soccer fan things: "Three Little Birds" is actually the Ajax 'theme song'. IIRC they were playing in the UK, the 'away fans' had to be held in the stadium for some reason, and the PA announcer played the song to keep them entertained. They seized upon it. There's video of Marley's son singing it in their stadium. Which is named after Johan Cruyff, who (as Beard mentioned) helped invent "Total Football". The storytelling element where Ted figures it out on his own *in* Amsterdam nearly brought me to tears. Watched that episode with a mix of soccer and non-soccer fans, my half of the room was talking about how Brendan Hunt *really* knows football.

Dr Jacob was probably just *barely* not violating ethics rules because the American Psychological Association prohibits romantic/sexual relationships until 2 years after the end of the therapist-patient relationship. Since Ted's been in the U.K. just 2 years at this point & they seemed to have been in therapy not too long prior to his moving, Dr Jacob probably just squeaked over the 2 year limit. I still personally consider it unethical because he was specifically their marriage counselor- Ted mentioned before that it felt like Michelle and Dr Jacob had already decided things were his fault prior to him even going into a session & I think the viewers at the time were meant to sort of write that off as him feeling overly defensive (normal in that situation) But Dr Jacob dating Michelle puts that interpretation into question because it's entirely possible that Dr Jacob wasn't doing his job properly because he was attracted to Michelle and possibly wanted to see her relationship fail so he might have a chance with her.

Isaac's reaction to the bird whistle getting zava's attention will always be the funniest thing to me.

Episode 7 is by far my favourite episode! Colin's speech makes me tear up no matter how many times I hear it. I really like that they didn't go the Ted/Rebecca route, that they showed that a healthy, platonic, same sex relationship can exist, with no tension.

Thank you for putting Ted Lasso on KZfaq

A relationship between a marriage counselor and a former client is considered a serious ethical violation. Professional ethical rules are very clear about the need to maintain boundaries even after the therapeutic relationship has ended. The American Psychological Association (APA) and the American Counseling Association (ACA), have guidelines that discourage it and anything sooner than two years after the end of the therapist-patient relationship, would likely result in the therapist's license being revoked.

19:19 Simone & George's reaction to Mae serving food is one of the many reasons I love their reactions, interactions and this channel!

Roy Kent is based on Irish footballer Roy Keane. Hes angry on the pitch but runs a charity for the blind, there is a funny interview which him being asked if he wants to be manager saying "but i have a job" over and over and getting irritated.

The song playing during the bike riding scene with Jamie and Roy is a nod to the movie Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

Scoring from the halfway line in Football is actually more common than you would think. There are a bunch of videos on KZfaq that show them. Zlatan Ibrahimovic (who Zava is based on) was notorious for scoring outlandish goals from distance as well as scoring from odd angles and with uncommon techniques.

I love the little hints we get of the secondary team members. Bumbercatch is a political junkie, conspiracy theorist, and mechanically minded-he is the one who figures out that the sign was ripped. He also fixes something in an upcoming episode.

I went to Amsterdam back in 2003 on Spring Break in college. Where Trent and Collin speak (@1:02:32) is called the Homomonument. And, it is definitely just right around the corner from where the Frank family hid during the occupation.

I really appreciated the James Randy reference. 👍

Episode 6 might be my favorite of the series.

I love that Zava is quite clearly Zlatan Ibrahimavic, even down to referring to himself by his name 🤣 I hope other people caught that

Everyone is a nerd about something. Nerds are not the stereotypical nerds from tv and movies. Nerd out about sports, comics, games, videos, makeup, celebs, life.❤🖖Be a happy nerd everyone !

GEORGE 😂 “they only dry thing there” 1:04:02 🤣🤣🤣💀

I've been waiting for this forever (well, since the last one). I always love to see Simone's reactions to Ted Lasso. We get teary-eyed at the same things! ❤😎

Jamie accurately correcting people's language is one of the best low-key bits in the season - utterly hilarious

"why is Danny laying down?" The idea against a free-kick is to build a wall, the 'top line' goes shoulder to shoulder and jumps to header height, and sometimes someone blocks the cheeky "under-the-wall" kick. Are you possibly sacrificing you face? Yes. 😅😅 The more you know 🌠🌈

That song in the Zava episode is made by an Italian comedian who wanted to make a song that sounded like English but was pure jibberish. But it absolutely slaps. Look up Adriano Celentano - Prisencolinensinainciusol

So excited to see you two react to Sunflowers omg, such an amazing episode. Also it's been months since I watched the show, and if you told me Jamie would become my favorite character I wouldn't have believed you in the slightest 😂. In season 1 I hated him, knew the show was gonna try and make me love him later on, and yet they STILL succeeded lol. Like it's a perfect natural character growth and it's crazy how well they pulled it off.

"Good old fashioned Orientalism." I must point out Kintsugi is a phenomenal art form that may have originated in the "Orient" (as George put it) but it doesn't mean it's it shouldn't be expanded on, or avoided by other cultures, because it has wonderful meaning and value. Kintsugi is very healing for those with scars. Why are you upset, George, that any humans can find health benefits from art, history, meaning or culture?

Mascara Simone is ready to shoot daggers at Nate 😅

If you react to the movie Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid, you'll find out what an awesome call out it was for Jamie to teach Roy how to ride a bike. That scene was one of my favorites for this entire series. I got a lump in my throat from the homage it was doing.

Simone calling Jamie and Roy "Nerds" was the best thing ever. ALSO: Magic Tea is the best.

I love how Sassy greets her Uber driver after her conversation with Ted. He IS a mess, but he still has that Ted effect on people to be better somehow.

Ted’s hallucinatory episode was an ester egg, about Fonald Duck in mathematics land or something similar. I remember watching it when I was a kid at school on the old real to real projector.

Noice! Y'all have just improved an already pretty sweet Saturday. Cheers and Happy Weekend form the East Coast.🥃☮❤

Still in the beginning of the video and already lmao at your enthusiasm for Rupert's death star office 😂 It really is an awesome villain office (lair?). Thank you for these Ted Lasso reactions, they are a blast!

Cool reaction as always Simone & George, you both take care and have a nice day

Rupert has an Emperor Palpatine throne room window.

The guy is lying down, so that when the wall jumps, the kicker won't attempt to put it under the wall (Messi has done that a few times) ....

I needed this today. Thank you.

Nate is never sure of who he is or who he really wants to be. He is not even sure of who he is angry at and over what. He is so mistreated by people before Ted arrives that the lesson he learned is that successful and powerful people punch down at those with less power and disregard their existence, which is why he treats Will and Colin badly. He also doesn't get the lesson from Rebecca about finding your power. He instead is always spitting at himself. He's focused on the hate he has for the negative parts of himself and not reinforcing the positive parts of himself. As for Jade, I went back to rewatch the first time, she appears and actually she is very friendly at first and happy to make the reservation. When he asks for the window table, her smile drops and says she has to ask Derek. Incidentally Derek is the name of the manager at the American restaurant in Amsterdam that all the employees are complaining about. Same Derek? Who knows? Every other interaction between Jade and Nate is one where Nate is either trying to show off (friend of Roy), uncertain and flustered. He is never being being direct. Once she sees him being direct to Anastasi, defending this part of his life, being a human, then Jade is willing to connect with him.

Even when Nate was shy, he cared more than anything what others thought of him. How important it was that he got showed his Dad that he merited a window seat. Remember back when he was insulted that Roy didn't find him a threat after kissing Keeley? Or how Ted became the enemy as soon as he didn't completely dote on Nate? Major Daddy issues. Jade' presents a little weird but she uses acting obtuse to deflect behaviour and situations she doesn't feel like dealing with. When Nate finally gets completely human and stops grasping for attention, she likes him. It feels like she singled him out for that cold treatment because she saw him better than most do and saw another Nate in there. There's someone for everyone (foreshadowed by that "your baggage matches right up" Ted comment about Jane and Beard)

Not sure about something as simple as a counselor/therapist, but I believe I read when this came out that psychologist/psychiatrists aren’t supposed to date a patient for 3-5 years after they stop seeing a patient, because they can take advantage of the deep psychological knowledge they have of the patient. The years long delay allows the person to change as a person so that by the time the Dr dates them they are enough of a different person that you aren’t taking advantage of them. At least that is my understanding of it depending on which state you live in the U.S. There are similar rules about a high school teacher dating a former student, they are supposed to stay away to give the former student time to go out and live their own life and find someone on their own. If they decide years later they want to date a former teacher, at least they lived some life on their own for a few years.

i was just in ampsterdam and took some pictures at both bridges from this episode. the van gogh museum was AMAZING

I love the pillow fight call back to season one.

I’ve also got myself a Silly Goose sweater. My spirit animal!

Yes!!! I've waited so much for this reaction.

This season did have a few missteps - notably the Keeley storyline. But it’s still Ted Lasso and it still has the heart .

I once saw a guy walking down the street sideways like a crab in Amsterdam🤔 my favourite city😅

I actually really started to like Rupert's character. He wasn't entirely awful. I did like how he treated Nate and seemed like he truly believed in him.

These always go by so fast!

Ironically Nick Mohammed has just been in a series of Taskmaster here in the UK and a lovelier, sweeter man you couldn't wish to find.

The music selection that they chose for Nate was Rakim “Fallow the Leader” Rakim is the GOAT rapper…. He is the best that ever did it.

The Amsterdam espisode is so good. I love how they gave Trent Crimm of the Independant more depth. The guy was laying down to block any shot on the ground since the wall often jumps. A sneaky way to score is to shoot low when they all jump. So one player will lay on the ground to block low shots. Re: 1:09:00 a teammate not supporting him the reality is the hypermasculine world of men's team sports openly gay players have been few and far between so lack of acceptance and public ridicule is a natural fear.

Just the intro has me super excited

I love that both Beard and Roy dated Gina Gershon.

I will echo what everyone else has said. The snake oils saleswoman is just saying that she will be a mother, that’s all she is saying.

George doing Jamie's accent gives massive Benny Wong vibes.

As someone who works at a museum, please do not take mushrooms or any other hallucinogenics before going. It has happened several times and every time the person leaves with either the police or the paramedics.

two Ted's in two days we're spoilt xD

I think the casting of Teds son is physically based on the boy in the iron giant.

Now that you've seen Ted, and Ted Lasso.... it's time for Better Off Ted!

I went from "Oh F*** off Jamie" to "That my boy Jamie Tartt !"

Now you need to watch Shoresy after this. It's a Canadian hockey equivalent of Ted Lasso, quite a bit raunchier though.

You guys should do Shrinking after this, Brett Goldstein (Roy) created it, has a similar tone.

George: do you like that dress? Simone: no 😃

What are jocks if not sports nerds? They even dress up in a costume every week!

Goals from the midfield, farther and even in open play (not a free kick) are not the rule but they are not uncommon by any means either, there have been goals scored by the opponent golie from end to end.

31:57 Bro that can happen David Beckham did it and a few others over 20 years ago. They weren't from a movie.😂🤣😂🤣 Shaolin Soccer ⚽ good one though👍🏾🙏😇

I never clicked so fast on a video 😍

Somehow i must think of Liverpool and Klopp when i watch Ted Lasso.

Jade isn't cold. She's just Polish

Been waiting for this sooo long xD

Psychic= Fufu Shit 😂😂

Even though it had some great moments the first half of this season was a hit off due to Shandy, Jack and Zava. From the Amsterdam episode onwards it’s back to being a masterpiece.

Thanks for putting these together! I know the editing must have been a lot!

Y'all bring up a good point at 35:54. I wonder how many relationships were ruined because a Therapist wanted to date their clients/patients

Bears George, I saw and had a long conversation with Smoky The Bear when I tried.

31:55 - those goals happened really, take Alex Alves for Hertha 20 years ago as exacmple.

Day 1 of recommending the 2011 Adventures of Tintin film. One of the best animated films I’ve ever seen

And yes, it was very sleazy what Michelle and the doctor were doing to Ted.

When my best friend tried mushrooms in college he said that he sat there and watched two trees fuck. I never tried them

You need to watch the latest series of Taskmaster to find out just what a sweetheart Nick Mohammed actually is.

In the irony / hypocritical scene, at least with my understanding of the two words it would actually be irony... If Jamie were still that person it would be hypocritical.... Seeing as he's obviously not that person anymore it would make it ironic?? Who knows lol

FINALLY!!!!! I’ve been waiting SOOOO LOOONNNGG!!! P.s. love you guys
