Look, let's be real for a second; last week's episode of Ted lasso was easily the worst episode of the series by a landslide. Heck, the IMDB score and the reviews speak for themselves. So of course, many, including myself were definitely worried if we were going to have an episode just as bad as this one. However, I was very much surprised.
Look, it's not perfect; most episodes of television aren't. But this was leagues better, and arguably has one of the strongest cores of the season. It's an incredible episode for the development of Colin and McAdoo, same with Roy Kent as well to a smaller extent. A lot of interesting things are set up, and by far one of the best episodes to handle Nate; it finally feels like they're going somewhere with his arc.
Overall, while not perfect, it gives me hope that the rest of the season will kick into the goal.
