By Colleen Glatfelter aka Geek Dad Wife. This week’s episode of Ted Lasso, “International Break,” was a beautiful hour – make that one hour and five minutes – of television. Everyone got what they wanted or needed and it was so satisfying. My only complaint is that all of this didn’t happen 4 episodes ago. […]

Review: Ted Lasso S3, Ep 9 “La Locker Room aux Folles”
By Colleen Glatfelter aka Geek. Dad. Life. I probably shouldn’t be, but I am really surprised by the amount of hate and eye-rolling this week’s episode has been getting online. I really liked it a lot. Written by co-executive producer Chuck Hayward, – a gay writer brought on this season along with Welcome to Night […]
Continue readingReview: Ted Lasso S3, Ep 8 “We’ll Never Have Paris”
By Colleen Glatfelter aka Geek. Dad. Life. I’ll be honest: I had mixed feelings the first time I watched “We’ll Never Have Paris.” After two solid eps in a row, I thought season 3’s eighth episode felt disjointed with Ted, Keely, and Roy once again behaving out-of-character and that it lacked that Ted Lasso magic. […]

By Colleen Glatfelter aka Geek. Dad. Wife. I was worried that last week’s episode of Ted Lasso was a happy fluke but when this week’s episode opened with bright tones, flowers, macaroons, and Jamie pulling a bicycling Roy on a leash, I knew things were looking up. “The Strings That Bind Us” was written by […]

By Colleen Glatfelter aka Geek. Dad. Wife. After several weeks of depressing episodes, this week’s Ted Lasso, titled “Sunflowers,” gave us a nice little reset in Amsterdam, where the team keeps up their losing streak, this time in an exhibition match aka a “friendly.” Everyone is pretty down about how poorly Richmond is playing so […]

By Colleen Glatfelter aka Geek. Dad. Wife. And just like that, the Zava Era has ended. I didn’t love last week’s episode of Ted Lasso but was willing to go with the flow and overlook some of its obvious issues, mainly continuity issues (Ted ALREADY KNEW that Nate ripped the sign! Who did they think taped […]
Continue readingReview: Ted Lasso S3 E4 “Big Week”
By Colleen Glatfelter aka Geek. Dad. Wife. Passion. It can describe love, crime, or fruit. Prog-mess. Does it describe Ted, the team, or the season thus far? My sister texted me yesterday that she thinks Ted Lasso has lost its spark this season. I then read a comment online that shared a similar view. I […]
Continue readingReview: Ted Lasso S3 E3 “4-5-1”
By Colleen Glatfelter aka Geek. Dad. Wife. Woo boy, did we get an action-packed episode of Ted Lasso this week or what? The beginning to the Zava Era. Closeted football players. Psychics making Big Lebowski jokes. Getting turned on by Julie Andrews. The third episode of Season 3 was a packed 45 minutes. “4-5-1” starts […]
Continue readingReview: Ted Lasso S3 E2 “(I Don’t Want to Go to) Chelsea”
By Colleen Glatfelter aka Geek. Dad. Wife. Long live the sour yell? Episode 2 of the third season of Ted Lasso, “(I Don’t Want to Go to) Chelsea,” brought the return of Trent Crimm, delved deeper into Keely’s PR firm, and introduced Italian football superstar Zava. We start off with Trent Crimm in Rebecca’s office, […]
