Ted Lasso - 2x4 Carol of the Bells - Group Reaction

[@brendanoconnor1550]

“…I think you might be dying.” I had to pause at that point in the episode because I wheezed so hard I was seeing spots

[@SquiresIsle]

My favorite tiny moment is when Ted excitedly tells them he plans to spend all day Facetiming Henry, you can see Rebecca react. She knows exactly what kind of shitty day he's in for and that's when she decides to save him.

[@fayesouthall6604]

Yep she knows 😊

[@SGC51]

I love this episode! The toast by Higgins always hits me in the feels. It's so cool seeing the team come together as a family and celebrating, and you can see how much it means to him and his wife as well.

[@YC_001]

3x06 gave me the same feelings that this episode did, maybe a bit more, 3x06 most likely my favorite ep of the series

[@lashier13]

"Ted, why don't you go over to Higgy Smalls' place?" -Suraj Damn bro, Ted would've burst back in the room to give you a high five for that one. Well done.

[@elreydelmundo1343]

I giggled so hard at that.

[@dannyeli6288]

I know some people ship Ted/Rebecca. But I love their friendship. Rebecca was legit Ted's guardian angel this episode

[@fayesouthall6604]

Their friendship is so beautiful I don’t want it spoiled

[@terrygracy8345]

Agreed. No Ted Rebecca romance

[@cthulhucollector]

Stop trying to ship them.

[@jdmichaels27]

Agreed. They are both great but I don't get why some want them together. They are just great friends.

[@Phonixrmf]

I will go down with this (friend)ship

[@thomasrusconi]

I actually went to university in Richmond in 2007-2009, including living there. Ted's place, with Mae's pub, leading to the park across the street is a real location just south of Richmond High Street and is just as gorgeous as portrayed (the interior of the pub is a set, however). Another amazing location is where Ted met Keeley while she was filming an ad in episode 2 of season 1 (when they got snapped by the photographer in what looked like an intimate moment): the top of Richmond Hill. It overlooks ALL of west London and on a sunny day you can see for miles. There's also a pub up there called the Roebuck and they let you take your drinks outdoors so you can sit on benches and watch the sunset. It is, without a doubt, my perfect place. Just be warned, Richmond is the second wealthiest borough in London, so everything costs more there, including hotels.

"I want a Beard episode." ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@shantodas8184]

that was a banger

[@walrus2515]

@@shantodas8184 Seriously. Definitely a favourite of mine.

[@BigTulsa]

@@walrus2515 here's the funny thing. Both this episode and the Beard episode were not originally written for S2. It was going to be a 10 episode season once again. Apple begged Jason and the other creators for two more episodes. Hence 'Carol of the Bells' and 'Beard After Hours'.

[@mancha1179]

I swear to god this guy has seen the show

[@DavidWilliams-nm5jv]

As more and more of the team showed up at the Higgens' house, my heart just overfilled and exploded. Found families are the absolute best.

[@CL_442]

I love this episode so much. It first aired in August '21, and I made sure to watch it again on Christmas Eve '21 and '22. It's a new annual tradition for me. And you can watch it with people who don't know the show, it's just a feel good episode for everyone.

[@PeaceLoveMusic75]

Definitely has been a popular addition to my every year holiday watch list. I love Christmas episodes on shows in general (I have some cheesyball in me not ashamed to admit!). I watch the movie “The Holiday”, all the Christmas episodes from New Girl, and this Ted Lasso episode twice in between thanksgiving and Christmas. That’s my current playlist anyway and Ted will stay for ages due to being the newest addition. Love love love this one!

[@fayesouthall6604]

Same 😊

[@KelseyODonnell17]

This is the most wholesome episode of television in all of history

[@SuperAli156]

Bro I'm gonna miss this show so much. I can't believe the finale is in two days :(

[@staticmonkey8436]

The look on Roy’s face when he was like “I think you might be dying” I don’t remember EVER laughing as hard as I did then. AND I WAS ON A PLANE WHEN THIS EPISODE WAS RELEASED! Also, Suraj…..you said you want a Beard episode…..welllll…..🫠…..just wait…..

[@afrarehman760]

Beard episode was amazing!! One of my favourites. When he goes to the club with the guys from the bar it was hilarious and wholesome at the same time.

[@cameronnking]

I actually really love this episode as well! & I believeee its technically filler too(?) I think the season was written for 10 episodes, but they were given 2 extra by the studio. So they added this Christmas episode, and one OTHER episode later, (avoiding spoilers). Which I CANNOT WAIT for you guys to see that 'controversial' episode lmao

[@Ratchet2431]

I don't think it's filler for a simple reason: the photo. Those who know, know.

[@Shinobi.carging.towards.Madara]

​@@Ratchet2431 which episode was it?

[@Robalogot]

There's a behind the scenes video of Hannah Waddingham practicing this song, it's unreal how good it is, I believe she was asked to tone it down a bit because no football club chairman would be able to sing that good.

[@ameliacraiig4193]

She's amazing!

[@afrarehman760]

She is a real life singer and had released albums before. She still sings at events and etc.

[@KillianProse]

That's how good she sounds after she tones it down? 😭

[@greyart6554]

if im not wrong rebecca is a theater legend in England also is famous for singing might be wrong

[@fayesouthall6604]

She is !

[@MH3Raiser]

Not sure how hard this part hits for non-londoners, but this episode also does a great job of showing 'London' culture; that is, a homogenization of many different cultures from various immigrant communities to the point where nobody in London is really considered an immigrant anymore. English football teams are made of players from all sorts of different countries and nationalities, as are the English as a people. The more we embrace that (those of us that live in London at least), the more amazing our culture becomes.

[@fayesouthall6604]

Agree with that!

[@Kotten84]

As long as there's christmas spirit, there will be a Santa. This one was such a wonderful, feel-good episode. It was sweet, funny and warm. Had me both smiling and shedding a few tears.

[@1234thisistemporary]

I love the Love Actually nods with the note cards and the knocking on the doors looking for someone ❤ amazing episode

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

No episode so far has made me smile more than this one

[@karlamoreno8641]

I love that you guys ship Tedbecca. Don't let them silence you.

[@lynnettapierce1741]

One of the best episodes of TV ever.

[@Xoltris]

"I want a Beard episode"... be careful what you wish for

[@fayesouthall6604]

Seriously if you’re up to date with lasso episodes you can watch that episode with new information

[@walrus2515]

I loved that episode!

[@Gunnhfran2]

I would love to see Ted and Rebecca together but they don’t need to… but he should get with and stay with sassy they play off each other so well

[@fayesouthall6604]

Exactly right

[@celinelia8127]

Gunnhfran2 have you seen season 3?

[@SubZeroJill]

Aww! Shout-out to SURAJ & his sweet, Phils.-edition track jacket.. ^_^ 3 stars & a sun, babyyy! 🔥

[@ChawkyVirus]

>Suraj: I want a Beard episode be patient and you shall receive

[@YC_001]

“I want a Beard episode”...Welp you got it👌🏼

[@AMoniqueOcampo]

Suraj: thank you for wearing that Philippines hoodie!

[@Ugnutz]

me and my sister have a Christmas tradition we watch love actually every year

[@stanleysmith2221]

Fabulous heart warming episode, you guys are great 😊

[@Bekka_Noyb]

one of my xmas episodes! ♥ @Raina - get in line! We all ♥ Sam! ♥ all the Love Actually references!

[@KevinMahone]

I want a beard episode….oh man just you wait

[@Nuggetmonk]

Im so sad the Show ist ending....especially in Times Like These.....i need a "good Feeling Show"

[@celinelia8127]

Der Manni 'times like these'? what times?

[@Silver_Owl]

I'm afraid Norse mythology beat you to the foot idea - Skadi got to choose her husband from amongst the gods, but she was only allowed to choose by looking at their feet.

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

Loving that Filipino jacket. That's slick

[@MiguelMoleiro]

You’ll get a Beard episode 🙌

[@TerryYelmene]

A Very Merry React!

[@nesleehan5]

As someone who shipped the hell out of Ted and Rebecca, this reaction destroyed me. Jason Sudeikis, you could've given us an amazing tv couple!!!! "They were friends, they had no chemistry" people stay away from my replies!!

[@emadbu5]

Fun fact Higgins's wife is his real life wife

[@ChicagoDB]

One of my favorite episodes…didn’t like the “Love Actually” nonsense…but the rest was great. It was very unusual that Apple premiered this in the autumn…

[@VSounds96]

got to double drop new season next week jk but cant wait till y'all reaction to episode 10

[@simonkeller7667]

Is Suraj okay? He was completely silent and looked at the camera when Ted was watching the scene from It's a Wonderful Life, where the main character wants to jump off a bridge. I'm sorry if I look too much into things, but something in his eyes worried me ❤

[@thepimp31]

Never had the rice. Goat is bomb, Mexicans make it and call it Birria. I think thats the style tho.

[@isaiahsmith1944]

Does the intro remind anyone else of community 🤔

Lactose intolerant here....I didnt become lactose intolerant until 35 and it sucks. I mean I had to give up on pizza for life!

[@celinelia8127]

van wentworth but there's plenty of types of pizza for lactose intolerant people!

[@nunyabeezwacks1408]

There's lactase pills that help you to digest the lactose.

[@edgar214ER]

I’m going miss this show season three got some long ass episodes tho

[@andrewdunn8778]

Finally a Pat opinion W. Chocolate-covered strawberries are a bit overrated. I love chocolate, melted chocolate, and fresh strawberries, but it don't work together.

[@FuntNugget]

6:12 Love actually is one of the worst romance movies made tbh

[@celinelia8127]

Ted and Rebecca act like Ted and Trent Crimm,the Independent. or like Ted and Mae, the bar owner. or like Ted and Higgins. Beard and Ted are closer than Ted and Rebecca.

[@Thomas_Donofrio]

My favorite thing about Christmas movies/episodes is that they always reference to Santa being real….yet poor children STILL aren’t getting presents 🤔🤔

[@nervnerv7188]

"I want a beard episode" just wait till he finds out thats the only bad episode in the series

[@bluepearl_22]

I genuinely can't wait for the season 3 finale to drop tomorrow so I can let them know that TedxRebecca didn't happen so they can finally stop shipping them.

[@themagicman6078]

#OnlyFeets

[@KaiGarGar09]

The only thing that's off-putting is your weird obsession with Ted and Rebecca getting together. You guys get 90% of the show wrong and miss a lot of important references, but that part is okay, but you're making up stories based on what other shows do with their male and women protagonist. Ted Lasso is a different show, of course, they will show a proper story of a friendship between two people of the opposite sex that doesn't have to be romanticized. But this need of Ted and Rebecca getting together based on.... the fact that he's a man and she's a woman is so... 😒

[@fayesouthall6604]

They rarely do the usual!

[@ISavant]

not true, the oiher off-putting thing is pat and all of his opinions.

[@celinelia8127]

Kai Garcia yeah true. Ted and Rebecca act like Ted and Trent Crimm,the Independent. or like Ted and Mae, the bar owner. or like Ted and Higgins. Beard and Ted are closer than Ted and Rebecca.

[@ISavant]

jesus i thought i was autistic and couldn't read social cues but at least i don't see romantic cues where literally none exist. Also he *literally* just got divorced and you're all "He should hook up with his boss! that's healthy and so romantic!" Also where was jamie? Home?

[@celinelia8127]

ISavant reading social cues is very different from reading actors acting in typical american tv shows. plus music and writing. in real life the cues are different. also, i think Ted and Rebecca act like Ted and Trent Crimm,the Independent.

[@ISavant]

@Cio Lake I know Jamie was at home, that's why it was a stupid question. The episode highlighted Higgins open home specifically for the players who didn't have family to see, which was all the players from outside the UK. Not Jamie. I'm also perfectly aware of tropes, and expectations based on themes in the show. Nothing in the show has presented red and Rebecca being romantically involved *at all*.

[@DeadInsideDave]

i hate the part where they speak
