Brett Goldstein on Ted Lasso Ending, Their White House Visit & Cursing During His Emmy Speech

Brett talks about going to the White House with the cast of “Ted Lasso,” not knowing what to do with his hands, getting a business card from a Secret Service Agent, sitting for an hour with President Biden, cursing during his Emmy speech the last day of shooting “Ted Lasso,” the possibility of another season, and being a co-creator of the show “Shrinking.”

Ted Lasso & Shrinking are the best new shows I've seen in the last 10+ years. Brett must be made of magic.

Yesssss Ted lasso. Shrinking. Severance. Obsessed with all of them. ♥️♥️♥️

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

anyone else read that as Shrinkage? yeah me neither

[@sabahbubbler]

@@ccutler4159 that sounds like something an innie would say

I mean, look at him! All magical!!!

[@fernandomoreno6197]

It's so weird seeing Brett smiling😂❤ I LOVE HIM SO MUCH

[@brandenpaul3968]

I don't know if anyone can resist loving this man.

[@Dbeckdesign68]

Roy Kent is my favorite character! He’s so gruff and endearing. And the way he says “FAAAAACK” always makes me laugh.

[@user-jl8yn7og7b]

This man deserves everything good in the world. A lovely, lovely human being. I saw him several times at a London club called Always Be Comedy and he's an absolute sweetheart, staying to chat and have a drink with the audience. More men should aspire to be like him.

[@lockingdiff]

This man is absolutely brilliant. The UK has been hiding this gem of a writer and producer.

[@em0_tion]

He's here, he's there, he's everyfuckingwhere. Go Brett! 🙇‍♂👏🔥

[@AbsolutFlippy]

I love Brett’s relationship with his Dad. And that his dad was proud enough to not feel ashamed of making his disability public. 💕 Disability pride is so important and makes the world such a better place.

[@jamesmyers8971]

Brett is amazing in everything he does! ❤

[@justbecauseitsbeauty]

He is lovely & uber talented - so happy for all of his success ❤

[@Ottophil]

Hes lift talented too. All the ride sharing apps

[@TheBangingBongos]

​@@Ottophil I heard he's pretty taxi talented too but I could be wrong

[@JayT-1000]

I can’t believe they would only make 3 seasons of such a big hit. Sooo many good characters on this show. There is a need for more Ted and Coach. Roy, Keeley and Jaimie. Higgins and Rebecca. Issac, Sam and Dani! At least give us a spin-off! A buddy comedy with Roy and Jamie? I’d watch that.

[@emu_warrior]

nah, shows go on too long they become boring and end badly. e.g., the office was one or two seasons too long, community had a terrible final season, etc.

[@LilSebastian_]

@@emu_warrior Parks and Recreation was awesome the entire time.....

[@emu_warrior]

@@LilSebastian_ so was your mother. what does this have to do with what I said?

[@JayT-1000]

@@emu_warrior sure that is common to happen after the 5th or 6th season. 3 seasons isn’t the same. Especially for a comedy. Let them do 5 and then let’s have this conversation again. Btw Community lost cast members, and that’s why it had a bad final season.

[@engerek666]

@@emu_warrior But there's still so many stories untold, so many stones unturned. Even Sudeikis mentioned that in an interview, that there's still so much "juice" in the characters.

[@slf5141]

Love "Shrinking " !!!!!

[@deutschluz]

That Roy Kent character is so lovable and Bret pulls it off so well, I wouldnt mind if he, Bret, just goes full Sacha Baron Cohen and makes a mockumentary based on Roy Kent.

[@Athandatu]

This man is a legend ❤

[@babilabub]

This is indeed a great day- indictment, Viola, Julius and now Brett !! 👏👏👏👏👏

[@leannea.8281]

I love that man. So talented, so self-deprecating, so...everything.

[@robb2biago]

A day trip to The White House. What a great interview. No! It can’t be the last season, it’s too good. “And we had an Orgy”. Brilliant, and the bit he called his Dad, loved.

[@IvanHadlich]

He is so down to earth! What a nice lad!!!!

[@anne8511]

Great interview. Love Brett Goldstein. I always perk up when he’s in the scene. His grunts are legendary.

[@BasesLoadedLacquer]

omg brett has teeth! 🤣 i don't think we've ever seen roy smile with his whole heart. lol ted lasso has been an absolute ray of sunshine for me these past few months (i only started binge'ing it last fall). the entire cast is incredible & i'd hate for this show to leave my life, but i'll continue to stream it as i do all of my other feel-goods (i.e. golden girls, schitts creek). ted lasso is comfort food for my soul. thank you to jason, hannah, brett, toheeb, juno, jeremy & the countless others who have come together to create such an amazing atmosphere of family. and most importantly for spotlighting those of us with anxiety & sensory disorders, because we matter. ❤

[@DetectiveGesicht]

Brett works so hard - happy to see him getting all this love.

[@Themandyreid]

It’s so weird seeing him smile and laugh! Not at all like Roy Kent. 😂

[@AndreinaDuven]

And he has a great smile!!! Love him 🥰

[@DrZaius3141]

You know that saying "couldn't happen to a nicer person"? That one's about Brett. Amazing person, reaping all the rewards now.

Brett’s podcast “Films to be Buried with” is fuckn awesome if you love this furry man!

[@genuinelyjag]

2:55 "Wait one month, call em, you might wind up married". What Jason Sudeikis did with Olivia Wilde. Well played, Jimmy. Well played.

[@Jerrrbear]

The audience should've started singing the Roy Kent song.

[@Athandatu]

I sort of expected a grunt after every 3 words during the interview hahaha

[@SendJeffRMail]

Shrinking is incredible.

[@KellyAnn1997]

I love Brett. He’s amazing.

[@justjokes-shorts9239]

It amazes me that they would only produce three seasons of such a huge success. This program has a ton of great characters. More Ted and Coach are required. Jaimie, Keeley, and Roy. Rebecca and Higgins. Sam, Dani, and Isaac! Give us at least a spin-off! a companion comedy starring Jamie and Roy? I would see that.

[@mitzebender4679]

Hey Jimmy, take a breather and let him finish a thought. Don't pull a Fallon. Brett Goldstein is amazing - brilliant, hilarious, talented, gorgeous!

[@MiBzAn]

I adore Ted Lasso and am quite heartbroken it's coming to an end so soon. I really love that it feels like a really awesome blend of American TV and British TV. Side note: I'm always freaked out about what to do with my hands lmao gotta love mental health! ❤😅

[@MiBzAn]

Also Brett is absolutely delightful! Would love to see more of him.

[@WobblyLance]

His podcast, Films To Be Buried With, is brilliant... as is his version of A Muppet Christmas Carol!

[@nxo91]

Such a natural person!

[@RosablueHandMade]

Apple TV have saved us from ourselves, screening Ted Lasso one episode at a time. I certainly can never get enough of Brett and his posse. I think that left to our own devices we would not have let them fit in even one talk show, never mind a White House visit. Bunch of lovelies!

[@coffeeaficion]

What a cool and good dude!

[@carlangas54070]

Shrinking is GREAT, I think is the second best Apple TV+ show after Ted Lasso. Brutally underrated.

[@fayesouthall6604]

Agreed it’s great.

[@briangrimmer8225]

Brett is the very epitome of a 20 year overnight success…hope the Hercules cameo in Love and thunder is more than a cameo 🤞

[@user-wt7kw1xc7x]

I never get how middle America is still stuck in the 70s when it comes to swearing. Being in the UK it's not something we do in the house in front of the children, but we have talked about it and as it's pretty hard to avoid in music and TV these days, we just agree to be grown up about it and not make a big deal of it if there is swearing. My children are cool about it (9&13) and if it's good enough for them, why not all of America?

[@pikeyMcBarkin]

love Ted Lasso, and Shrinking is hilarious.
