Anyone who has seen Ted Lasso likely recognizes the emotional power behind its main narrative.
Brilliantly blending emotionally charged subject matter behind its energetic brand of comedy, Ted Lasso has won renown among fans for its optimistic tone and relatable characters.
For this reason, series star Jason Sudeikis continues to see the project as more than a simple comedy show alone, often remarking to fans who said the series saved them that it "It saved me, too" (via The Hollywood Reporter).
“It is infectious to play a character who sees the best in people and isn’t mad at the world for all its foibles and bullies and shadows,” Sudeikis told THR. “It’s not like I’m Daniel Day-Lewis, but it was good to live in that — to have that coursing through your brain and your body all day. It still is.”
As those familiar with the show are sure to know, Ted Lasso follows Sudeikis' unwaveringly upbeat Kansas football coach as he heads to the United Kingdom to coach a Premier soccer team. Despite all odds, he manages to slowly change each of his players' lives on and off the field, all the while contending with his own marital issues and familial problems.
Given its emotional subject matter, rather than taking inspiration from traditional fast-paced American sitcoms, Ted Lasso's producers specifically looked to British TV series as its primary source of inspiration, allowing them to utilize a drier tone that went remarkably well with the show's main narrative.
"We had a lot of pauses, a lot of silent shots of people looking at other people, and that pace inherently changes the tone, and I’m not sure everyone at Apple or Warner Bros. saw the tone that Jason was imagining until it was finally in front of them in the editing room — and I think even then they were sh*tting themselves," said series star Brendan Hunt. "Then, when it finally came out, they were like, ‘Oh, right. No, no, you’re great. We knew. We knew.’"
