Critics Consensus

As comforting as a buttery biscuit from a friend, Ted Lasso's sophomore season is a feel-good triumph that plays into the show's strengths while giving its supporting team more time on the pitch.

Doreen St. Felix The New Yorker 12/10/2021
The eight episodes I've seen of the new season can feel underbaked and free-floating, the writing formulaic, the plots even slighter than they were in Season 1. The inconsistency of quality has the effect of intensifying the successes. Go to Full Review

5/5
The broadening and deepening must have felt like a risk to everyone involved in a show predicated on bringing light comic relief to viewers... But it's paid off. They shot and they've scored. God bless. Go to Full Review

4/5
Ted Lasso might not be laugh-out-loud funny, and the title character's good ol' boy schtick won't be to everyone's taste, but both he and the show are blessed with an almost preternatural affability that it's near impossible not to love. Go to Full Review

Ted Lasso Season 2 still has no right being this good, but it is. It wonderfully straddles its comedic moments while balancing them out with so many heart-felt passionate moments. Go to Full Review

Jake P @RT42207935 1d Not as good as the first season, seemed a little bit rushed See more matthias S @Thescreenasvor Aug 13 **Ted Lasso — Season 2 (77%)** Not quite as great as the first season for me. Season 2 often misses some of that charm and emotional punch that made the first one so special, and a few storylines just didn’t hit the same way. That said, the jokes are still sharp, the characters remain incredibly lovable, and the plots are consistently interesting. There’s still plenty to enjoy here, and it’s hard not to get invested in these people after spending so much time with them. Just feels like it lost a little bit of the magic that made season 1 so damn good. See more Mark L @Peabsrt Aug 9 A wonderful feel good comedy that took me by surprise in how much I liked it. The relationships are dynamic and evolve as the show continues. Glad I listened to word of mouth advice this time. See more Adam B @RT36063679 Aug 8 A strong follow up to season one, I greatly enjoyed the first season and second season was equally as good. excited for season three. See more CT 8 @ct8787 Aug 8 Season 1 was fantastic. A great story, likeable original characters, and a lot of heart. Season 2 was nothing more than an alternate lifestyle infomercial devoid of everything that made season 1 so good. It’s a perfect example of the clickbait tactics Hollywood has begun to employ. Put out a quality show, get people hooked on it, then reveal the show’s true agenda and hope people don’t tune out. It was easy to figure out where this show was headed before the end the first episode and I tuned out shortly thereafter. And I won’t be coming back…ever. See more Renan U @RT78862611 Aug 5 I absolutely loved the first seasons of Ted Lasso. It was one of the few shows my family and I could sit down and enjoy together. The focus on soccer, humor, friendship, leadership, forgiveness, and personal growth is what made the series so special. Unfortunately, the show started to lose me toward the end of Season 2, and it continued throughout Season 3 and into Season 4. I felt the increasing focus on gay and lesbian romance took away from the story that originally made me love the series. In particular, the scenes involving two male characters kissing felt unnecessary to me and seemed to receive more emphasis than I personally wanted from a show like this. I understand that other viewers may enjoy those storylines, and I respect that everyone has different preferences. For me, though, Ted Lasso was at its best when it focused on soccer, humor, teamwork, friendship, and personal growth. That’s the show I fell in love with, and I was disappointed to see it move away from those See more Read all reviews
