Ted Lasso
Got to say, Ted Lasso is probably my favorite TV series so far. Just good-natured comedy without being overly crude or silly. Jason Sudakis is simply superb in his depiction of an American football coach managing an English Premier League football club. As an American football player who went to HS for three years in England and played on English soccer teams, I could really appreciate the cultural humor of the show. The writers really hit a homerun with the differences between England and the USA and depicting the adjustments that all American who live in England go through. It is one of the few shows that every episode is funny.
The only negative is that its only available on Amazon Prime video. It's worth getting a subscription for a month to watch.

It’s an Apple TV show
Apple TV. You are correct.
To think it was just a character he came up with to do some promos for NBC when they started showing English Premiere League.
I loved the show as well. Though I thought the first season was the best and by the third it wasn't working as well. You can only do the fish out of water story so long.
Still get Goosebumps listening to Ted's speech in the bar when he put the rich Englishmen in his place.
Best scene of the entire show.
I'm glad they didnt make him a screw-up in the TV show like the NBC commercial.
