"Can I have a hug?" Jason Sudeikis on Ted Lasso's best lines and biggest fans

[@camfifer4911]

Hannah’s “as owner of the football club, I expect you to wear them” is fantastic 😂

[@ScreamingTc]

That hug was the perfect way to wrap things up. Bless Ali for giving it on behalf of all the fans, and bless Jason for thanking Ali for giving a damn. So damned wholesome.

[@jimmygillard]

I love how Jason's voice kinda breaks saying "Thanks for giving a damn about our show"

[@priscillah.3418]

@@jimmygillard Good catch. I also love that, like Ali alluded to, this doesn't happen much, and the camera operators were not quite prepared for it. It took away the distance for a second.

[@Miss_Camel]

Absolutely perfect. Zero notes. ❤️

[@jimmygillard]

I love Ted Lasso so much and I'm not even a big football guy. It's just damn uplifting and light-hearted, whilst at the same time being quite complex and emotional. It's like a beacon in the darkness.

[@221BSam]

It really is & I don’t like football at all!

[@drbosommd]

Can’t stand soccer but Ted Lasso is brilliant .

[@scottrandall2019]

How many other interviews have I ever gotten a bit emotional watching? NONE! My gosh what a good interview!

[@mmacwebb7306]

I agree

[@atearsarahjane]

[@alexkasper5029]

I am quite fond of all the puns about the Milk sisters, the shareholders Ted and Rebecca are going to meet in The Diamond Dogs episode, my favorite being "oh no, did they expire?" when they don't show up.

[@Lost_Northerner]

Him and Brenden Hunt are my personal heroes because of this show. The good that it's going to do and is doing will resonate for years to come. Thank you Jason and co.

[@fatimamirza2100]

“Thanks for giving a damn about the show..”! ❤

[@Meta8_Eth]

Ted Lasso is Life

[@101hamilton]

I just binge watched Ted Lasso and was blown away. This is truly one of the best shows I have ever seen. Wow! It radiates 'good energy' and all the actors are amazing. Jason and Hannah have the most wonderful chemistry. Thank you Jason and everyone else involved!

[@dominiqueeden]

Oh Ali I wish this was longer but I appreciate ya. Also that hug was adorable.

[@HorseMuse]

Love your interview style! Lovely! I’m integrating being a goldfish, as I am going thru deep challenge with a family member in a health crisis…learning to not allow myself to be so stressed as the normal way of being, but letting each hurdle wash over, and move on to what’s next needing my true attention. It’s been a growth process of a high order for this Virgo!

[@bureku]

okay the interviewer was in tears because he was in the presence of Jason Sudekis... I might be too... but let's all just recognize that fact.

[@GlowySweetFabulous]

❤ Man Jason is so awesome. Such a great interview.That hug was so cute 🥰 I want one

[@hubertjunghain]

Did Jason‘s Apple Watch indeed transcribe the entire interview? 😂

[@carolinayoshida762]

Great interview, love it!!! The hug was perfect!

[@Agent-wn7le]

He’s soooo cool 😎 I love his voice 😊

[@LioraBCT]

The Milk sisters puns were the greatest, and created the perfect backdrop to Ted’s speech about being underestimated.

[@sandybear61]

Sam and his dad! And the ending hug s3ep8 with Keeley and Jamie was pretty special.

[@KMcDermott829]

I NEED Sam's dad to adopt me. I'm 59.

[@mrbear5417]

Ted lasso is by far one of, if not THE, best series ive watched. A masterpiece of a show

[@221BSam]

I love your interviews, you’re always intelligent & engaged, that was a lovely one to watch 😊

[@jonh901271]

Hugs on Ted Lasso were the best hugs. Really nice interview, btw.

[@SmutGrrl]

Oh man that ending 🥺😭🥰💖💖

[@danikahholdman2609]

He talks just like Ted. 😭😍

[@ChaY11t0]

I love Ted Lasso, and all the work of Jason, so meaningful.

[@k1ng_0fthes0uth-8]

Great interview as always.

[@kenttucson2830]

Born in Kansas. Lived most of my youth in Missouri and lived/worked in Kansas City!

[@SJ-jn1dv]

Aw Ali! Gotta go in for the hug

[@engerek666]

I am not a Football (soccer) enthusiast. All this time I thought AFC Richmond was a real team. I've recently been informed. However, that didn't change how I felt. I am, and will be an AFC Richmond fan nonetheless.

[@KMcDermott829]

"We're Richmond 'til we die, Richmond 'til we die, we know we are, we're sure we are - we're Richmond 'til we die!"

[@jsaving773]

I just don't think Jason knew what he was starting. I think maybe he had the show sold, but then he came into a unique time in his life or maybe met some unique people, struck gold with the writing staff. Maybe having cast and writers from around the world got him feeling romantic about life. Kevin is another show like it, where the characters just keep exceeding your expectations of them to the point where you understand just how damaging your low expectations are. They could only manage to write two seasons. It is tougher that writing to the lowest denominator.

[@caras4766]

Is Kevin the full name of the show?

[@Seilolo]

I’m not even a football fan, but I happened to catch Ted Lasso on a “free Apple TV+” weekend - SMART on their part becuz I was hooked IMMEDIATELY and had to order Apple TV+ right away so I could continue to watch it! One of the best shows I e seen in YEARS!

[@karenwiltshire4311]

I don’t following football but love Ted lasso and makes you really think about being kind to people

[@samanthaferreira09]

Wonderful ❤

[@candicephillips736]

I can’t help but think of We’re the Millers version of Jason. Funny guy!

[@missmayette]

The "elephino" joke is one I JUST noticed when I was rewatching the series in preparation for season 3. I laughed so hard.

[@psgouros]

Love seeing his watch transcribe his answer as he’s talking…

[@FireJach]

Perfect

[@carlin8londonbeat]

Not me getting emotional at the end!

[@ferbbbbb-p3g]

8:50 his watch is on something😂😂

[@louisbermudez5785]

Came here to say this

[@aaaalyaaaa]

6:09 LOCK STAR - amazing!

[@aaaalyaaaa]

also Ali, you're the best interviewer there is, your questions are so new and different from what other broadcasters ask. thank you!

[@kathymartin6594]

Well that was just so cute.

[@sathrukkan123]

Why is Jason Sudeikis' Apple watch openly transcribing the interview from 8:50 ? Track our conversations a bit more subtly Apple!

[@michaelscot4816]

A hug from Ted Lasso is like a favor from Frank Moses! 💙

[@ankari5257]

When this show first got released I thought it’d be shit icl but I got into it recently and I’m obsessed and wish I started watching it sooner

[@Tedster10]

Lol I say "knock a doodle do" when I enter a room

[@Mikel57129]

It definitely feels like a more dramatic modern version of scrubs set within a football club

[@KnightLive26]

Here for the people that notes the watch

[@KalkanChris]

Nobody interviews Rupert!!!

[@Ridwan_Ali2]

AFC Richmond is just best football team around

[@TVDANGERS]

💛 💙 Ukraine hear you guys 🙏

[@rosed2955]

Don't like that Jason is impressed by getting a letter from Jamie Dimon. JP Morgan is a major supporter of new oil and gas projects/products.

[@mjrojas8859]

“Can I ask for a hug?” “Yeah, but you’re gonna get one too” 🤣🤣🤣🥲🥹 wholesomely classic

[@Thebearmre7]

First 👌✌️

[@2.4strength4.2]

You can have a hug if I can get a visit from a dentist which I'm sure you know one of those too right?! Lol on emergency basis cuz I need both a hug n a surgery that are way past due

[@MrWCLewis12]

The only reason Biden called him coach is because the president is so out of his mind at thus point, he doesn’t realize Lasso is a tv show. He thought he was inviting a real soccer team to the White House. 😂 In all seriousness, it’s been a great show.

[@annunciataparchesi1832]

It's been a great show, and you've clearly missed the whole point of it.

[@KVOSkillz]

This gotta be the lowest energy most boring interview I’ve ever seen

[@georges1991]

ali plumb's interviews are always so awkward. I don't know how he has the top job

[@BayleyBlake]

I love Jason... but meeting Biden is nothing to be proud of, unless you punched him in the face!

[@nevhoffman]

Season 3 is so bad. I was such a fan of this show the first two seasons. I told EVERYONE I know that it's the best show on TV. Yet this season the writing has been god-awful, there's been no sense of direction, there's more woke BS messaging than there is actual story, and the way the end of Season 2 perfect set S3 up was completely dropped in favor of whatever the hell they're doing now. I've never been more disappointed in the direction a show has chosen to go than I am with Ted Lasso.

[@jimmygillard]

Anyone who uses the term woke as an insult is saying they are asleep. Nice self own bruh.

[@chileshek4892]

Honestly I agree. It feels like I'm watching season 4 and not season 3. The end of season 2 brought so much promise and now I'm looking at the clock there's only 4 episodes left and I'm extremely disappointed. I'm proud of Jamie and his growth but that's just about it

[@9709Nick]

A lot of things come into place and callbacks to everyone and everything they put up to from the previous seasons and their development. I do feel that Zava was a dissapointment and misuse but we will have to wait and see how's ending. Also woke Bs is not a valida rgument for liking or disliking something.

[@nevhoffman]

@@9709Nick yes it is. Forced messaging never works. Regardless of whether or not you agree with said messaging. If conservatives forced our beliefs the same way leftists do, y’all would ridicule those projects to no end. Yet 90% of Hollywood projects these days force the liberal agenda and we’re just supposed to sit back and be ok with it? Hell no. Besides the fact that it’s insulting to half your audience, it also dilutes the story bc woke messaging is almost always forced and never feels natural.

[@nevhoffman]

@@jimmygillard no. “Woke” means pushing the liberal agenda blindly without understanding how damaging it is. There’s nothing complimentary about that term.

[@TheMonroemomma]

I WANT TO HUG JASON SUDEIKIS!!!!!!!!!
