FFS you lot.
Why have I only today started bingeing Ted Lasso.
Genius (if you’ve worked with Muricans)

I get that, and it’s so divisive. Brits hate it Yanks love it.
Unfortunately I worked with a bunch of Ted’s back in the day

I’ve never worked with Yanks but have seen a lot at play. I’m quite enjoying the absurdity of it…

Hmmm but what a rear. 
I really enjoyed S1 of Ted Lasso. It’s purple but also genius at highlighting the cultural stupidity of the idea of the show.
S2 goes different down a surreal rabbit hole just at the edge of our consciousness bordering on stupidity but always coming across as almost pathos.
Utterly stupid
Totally lovable genius.
You can laugh and cry in the same scene.
Very cleverly wrong
Late to the party with ‘Succession’ on Sky but enjoying it so far, created by Jesse Armstrong who was a key player in ‘The Thick of It’ and ‘Peep Show’. He seems to have a real talent for writing characters who are willing to fuck over the people they care about.

Ep7 takes on a lot of stuff but mainly Suelka Braveminge.
It is so NOT risible.
Wow
Possibly not the right thread but if, like me, you were brought up on stories of WW2 heroics, Action Man, Airfix and Fray Bentos (
) then this podcast is like a massive episode of QI and all the ‘facts’ that underpin your very existence are debunked and tossed in the bin.
Apologise if this has been done already but I’m always a bit late to the party.
