Ted Lasso is one of the most iconic and hilarious TV comedies of the 21st century so far, but what made it truly special was its ability to hit fans in the feels. Although a streaming series based on a sketch character from a commercial initially sounded like a terrible idea, Ted Lasso ended up being one of the biggest hit shows of the decade, and one of the most resonant stories of recent times. This was the show people needed, especially during the lockdowns. Ted Lasso managed to elicit just as many tears as laughs as it captured the zeitgeist with its fish-out-of-water story about the power of hope.
