It’s been 10 years since the video that started Ted Lasso — let’s watch one more time

The hit show “Ted Lasso” concluded its third and final season and has left fans with a gaping hole where Ted’s humor once sat. Without spoiling anything, most fans of the show were pleased with the happy ending but will find themselves longing for more.

HBO drop ‘Angel City’ trailer — a 3-part behind the scenes docuseries with Natalie Portman and more

We’ve seen how successful and interesting behind-the-scenes documentaries on professional soccer clubs have been. Amazon’s “All or Nothing” and Hulu’s “Welcome to Wrexham” come to mind as the latest success stories.
