We are saddened to hear that after 3 short seasons, ted Lasso is donezo :( we have loved this show & wanna thank you for riding with us. More reactions are on Patreon!

[@SquiresIsle]

If it makes you less sad, remember it was planned that way! They weren't canceled and are, in fact, currently being flooded with interview questions about "Come on, just one more season...?" and "Okay fine if not another season, what about a spinoff? Here's 10 spinoffs we'd watch." 😁

[@celinelia8127]

'get over it Nate' why didn't you say it to BoJack about his a usive parents?

[@TyrannosavageRekt]

There are rumours now that they *might* go ahead and make a fourth, or perhaps a spin-off. Brendan Hunt (who plays Coach Beard, and is also one of the show's creators) said as much. He also said that it's entirely possible that they stick with their original plan not make any more, but they want to take some time to decompress and digest.

[@DeadInsideDave]

it was epic tho the ending. tears for days. an you know why this is good right. same peopl ewho made scrubs. that had heart too

[@cthulhuz0]

Third season might as well be like two because of the hour long episodes

[@JeffKelly03]

My favorite part about Higgins and his wife's song being "Rainbow" is that, first of all, when they show them the line of the song playing is "Have you seen her dressed in blue" and Mrs. Higgins is wearing blue, but most importantly, those two actors have been married for 30 years. So every bit of love and affection between them throughout the series is the real deal.

[@julieharden2433]

I adore that they are married in real life. It's my favorite part of their scenes.

[@reliablereindeer]

“Have you seen her all in gold?” plays when Keeley is on camera wearing gold

[@neesonnaidoo4745]

Higgins’ relationship with his wife and family is the most wholesome shit ever. Now knowing that the woman is his actual wife makes it even more 🥹

[@Bekka_Noyb]

♥ The Higgins!

[@eviljeep]

All the Stones song is well mix with the story 👌 my favourite part is Roy replace his knee and stand up.. with the song, with the sound effect and the emotion of the crowd just outside the door.. so well produce 👌

[@tylerboyce4081]

10:44 "F***, you're amazing. Let's invade France." One of my all-time favorite lines. 🤣

[@karabomasibi2331]

She really is amazing, I'd take on the french if she asked

[@KSweets23]

The old people were a reference to when Harry met sally, so was the line “when you wanna coach with someone for the rest of your life you want the rest of your life to start now”

[@irishmcg85]

To add to that when Ted meets Roy in the Kebab shop he says “I’ll have what he’s having” which I somehow missed on my first viewing

[@terrygracy8345]

@@irishmcg85 aww. Dude. I did too. That’s prefect

[@brandonjed]

I think the crowd couple might be a call back to When Harry Met Sally. Damn I miss rom coms!

[@c.decker3046]

Jason Sudeikis himself is in one of my favorite and seriously underrated romcoms, "Sleeping With Other People" with Alison Brie

[@brandonjed]

@Vg0000 I have! I didn’t think I was going to like it as much as I did

[@brandonjed]

@@c.decker3046 I don’t know why I couldn’t get into that one. But I love both of them

[@cameronnking]

Nate's seeking approval/validation anywhere he can find it. I wouldnt get too hyper-fixated on the 'fame' aspect too much. Clearly hes just got some SERIOUS daddy issues that hes projected onto Ted.

[@Blazingstoke]

And now he's not "Daddy's Favorite" with Ted anymore...

[@c.decker3046]

[@jessicaross7288]

You guys really need to see When Harry Met Sally and Jerry Maguire - two rom-coms referenced in this episode

[@SpontaneousAndStructured]

I think the other one was Notting Hill - I’m just a girl, standing in front of boy…

[@JulietteReacts]

The end of this episode is so damn good! I love Roy so much and Brett seems like a great guy irl too!

[@bernardsoul5186]

[@Thomas_Donofrio]

Nate spitting at himself in the mirror is him spitting at a version of himself that he considers weak or pathetic. And he sheds that skin in the moment and becomes someone stronger and confident. The old couple talking to the camera is a rom com trope from When Harry Met Sally.

[@yohansing]

Gotta shout out Always be my Maybe! Amazing Rom Com!

[@tsefcik]

Inspired by When Harry Met Sally and Boomerang! Lol so says the costars who wrote it

[@Thatguy.22]

Wow… this show is so good. It’s actually better on the re-watch, especially with y’all… on a side note Navi😍❤️

[@fayesouthall6604]

It’s an episode to show Nate he can’t get what he wants without changing himself. He could go two ways but he gets the messages wrong and gets tempted by the dark side.

[@bromega2477]

11:15 I always imagine the Law and Order sound in this moment.

[@scottredding7357]

Romcommunism - From each according to his romcom ability, to each according to his romcom needs.

[@Cairo198]

well Ted laughs at Nate when Nate suggest he'd talk to Isaac as a big dog

[@Tresham1]

This show and y'alls reactions is McDonald's; I'm lovin' it.

[@mnuziiiii]

Can you do more reactions to rom-coms, please? All this talk about those types of movies got me curious to see what your reactions would be 😊

[@RyanCogar]

10:08 Suraj he said "dithering kestrel". A kestrel is a bird of prey, similar to a falcon. 👍

[@dpw140]

Netflix’s Always be my Maybe is a phenomenal newer Rom-Com.

[@Wiley_Coyote]

Navi Jones, maybe? 😄

[@HK7Roiz]

You guys should really put a filter or edit out what that little boy Pat says, it just comes out ignorant and uneducated, "i only like new romcoms not the old shit" "wtf is Rilke" .... 🤦🏻‍♂️ It's actually sad

[@afrarehman760]

I can't wait to see everyones reaction when you guys find out who Rebecca is actually talking to on the app. Lol. I think I went into a mental shock when I watched this episode lol I didn't see that coming and the whole story seemed very forced. Also, Nate 360 degree change in his character will leave you very surprised but intrigued. Season 2 was great and had some good moments but few odd stuff too. Season 3 was a mix of everything I hope they make a spin-off with some of the OG characters i would love to see that.

[@fayesouthall6604]

Then watch season one, episode one Nate shouts at Ted and beard for walking on the grass until he realises who they are. Look at his reaction when he saw Will take his job before he’s made assistant coach. His 360 degrees turn was sign posted.

[@LuisOrtiz-ze2jh]

Start tracking strange news 🌍

[@TerryYelmene]

I love the comment "B-word" targeted at the Tast of Athen hostess. (little do you know) AND Ted is GOING to PROVE Life IS a RomCom! Finally, remember this ep. as the first turn of Nate.

[@A-small-amount-of-peas]

Roy's rant about the pointless nature of sports pundits was like music to my ears. Can never see the point of them. I'd rather they just be entertaining like Shaq and Charles Barkley

[@SubZeroJill]

Rebecca: MAKE YOURSELF BIG... Nate: OKEY DOKES! Me: 👀

[@zimvader25]

You guys have probably figured it out by now since you're probably done with the series but just in case: He didn't get window seat at first because Jade wasn't playing that shit. She told him they couldn't guarantee the window table, obviously being held in case someone big comes by, and he tried to name drop on her. So right off that point she saw him as an absolute tool and she definitely wasn't going to give him the window table now. It wasn't until he was confident AND HONEST with her about just wanting to eat and get out of there quickly that she caved. He stopped being toolish while just being confident.

[@celinelia8127]

cowardlycourage really? where did you get that from? i thought she just chickened out. She was on a power trip, enjoying she as a PoIish immigrant can be rude to a brown Greek immigrant and, thanks to her boss, keep the table for some white people..., but when he finally got assertive, she backed down.

[@zimvader25]

​@@celinelia8127 lmfao went straight to "racism!", huh? That your auto go-to?

[@zimvader25]

​​@Cio Lake she was following the policy when she asked about the reservation. When he name droped Roy she clearly had no idea who that was (hence the "is he your dad?" Reply), she was just teaching Nate a lesson about him name dropping. As we learn later on, she doesn't do football. She doesn't care for it. Doesn't know who the managers or players are. It's not her thing. Later on in the episode when he's assertive she's actually impressed and doesn't even bother asking Derek if she can move Nate and his family. But him being douchey and asking her to throw her number in was too far, which even he realized. There is literally no fear in her reaction to him. Or racist disgust. There's nothing here to indicate she was just a racist coward, which seems to be what you 2 that replied here are going with, and S3 confirms she's just not impressed by douchey behavior and tolerates Derek because she needs a job but clearly isn't someone to be intimidated or pushed around. I'm guessing you 2 haven't gotten that far yet. But here you are...

[@Strider91]

Hey Rana! 😊

[@tanyahudson2156]

I have such a hard time watching Nate and anything that Nate does. It makes me so stressed out.

“As you wish!” ~ The Princess Bride “You complete Me [our team]” ~ Jerry McGuire Plus a slew of lines and tropes from “When Harry Met Sally”, “You’ve Got Mail”, “Sleepless In Seattle”, “Notting Hill”, etc.

Nathan spitting at himself is not healthy.

Yeah. Rebecca teach him to make yourself bigger, but what Nathan actually do is to make other people smaller. It’s important and show how he “twisted” an actual healthy recommendation.

Every time that girl turns Nate down I hear Jim Halpert saying "This is the smallest amount of power I've ever seen go to someone's head."

[@thejediofuspartii538]

14:14 That's a pretty ignorant thing to say. People get mad at playing video games for pretty valid reasons like when the game lags and freezes and suffers certain glitches and also whenever there's this random difficult puzzle or fight to get through because the developers wanted to overcomplicate those puzzles and wanted to make certain enemies OP just to piss us off since they want to be dicks. (Had to retype this cuz some edgelord replied to this saying it's a "bad faith argument" lol).

[@bhelliom3]

Nate’s character arc upsets me so much because it’s so clear how he devolves into an angry incel of a man, and how his path could have been so different. He took all the wrong lessons from the advice people gave him, and let his insecurities within himself and resentment for his dad (and therefore any father figure) become a major driving force in his decisions. My dad is 57, he’s just now learning to recognize how he was raised and how his dad treated him heavily influenced how he behaved and perceived himself throughout life. I’ve seen so many Nate’s in my life, and it always makes me sad. I spent years building my confidence and love of myself, so I know it’s possible, but my childhood, parents, privileges, etc. are all different than the next person, and it’s so hard to show people their worth if they don’t want to see it.
