*TED LASSO* is perfect! (S3 - part one) 

Nate didn't dye his hair grey to fit in with Rupert; it was slowly turning greyer and greyer throughout the season as he became more "evil". It was fully grey once he did his heel turn.

Zava is actually based on a real life footballer called Zlatan Ibrahimovic who is almost just like Zava. When Zlatan signed for LA Galaxy he bought a whole page in LA times for 30.000 dollars only saying "Dear Los Angeles. Your welcome"

Dr. Jacob was not just their couples councilor. He was Michelle’s therapist before they started seeing him together. That makes him dating Michelle way more over the line.

“He dyed his hair grey to fit in with Rupert” He slowly went grey throughout series 2, like a villain arc

Dr. Jacob dating Michelle is just plain unethical AF, especially when you remember she'd been seeing him alone before she started bringing Ted along to sessions. Can't wait for your next reactions! I'm so eager to see what you think of the episode titled "Sunflowers". 😁😁

37:32 it’s not caring about Nate, it’s courtesy after a match to shake hands.

On the handshake moment, it is customary that the gaffers shake hands at the end of the match. Ted was just following decorum.

The character development in this show was phenomenal

The locker room scene discussing Trent, Zava and the break-up is soooo funny!

I love how the bit players in this show slowly get more focus and come into their own. Trent, Higgins, Mae, Collin, Will, the three fans at the bar. Special nod to the handshake guy in Akufo’s entourage.

I really loved Season 3, and especially the focus on character growth. Might be my personal favorite season for the exact same reason. I hope Phil Dunster (Jamie Tartt) gets an Emmy nomination for this.

What's funny about Nate's hair is that he said his hair at the end of season 2 was his natural hair. At the beginning they dyed it black to make him look younger, and dyed it grey in season 3 to make him 1) Look older/more like rupert and 2) to show the amount of stress thats been put on him by being put in the spotlight

Jamie/Roy is the best character arc/dynamic in the show this season.

The thing is Michelle does love Ted, just not romantically anymore. If she stays it would just hurt them both. Yet I do agree, dating the therapist is wrong both for Michelle and the therapist.

37:38 Ned realizes that he (in the heat of the moment and without bad intent) did the same thing he accused Ted of (the "snub" when Ted only patted him on the shoulder and then moved on to the other coaches after their win). He understands now. That's my favourite callback I think. That's when it really clicked for Nate.

37:18 in football it's an unwritten rule and just a polite thing to do for managers to shake hands after the game.

Your reaction videos for seasons 1+2 were what got me to watch this show for myself MONTHS ago, and ever since then it's become so special to me and I've engaged with so many wonderful people who love the show and have made such great friends, so inadvertently thank you so much for that! I have such a complicated relationship with this season in particular, but it will overall always be my comfort show 💜

jamie is HYSTERICAL this season. also i'm so weirdly attracted to him in s3 it has to be the hair

Toheeb Jimoh (Sam) went to my uni and we’d say hello to each other when passing in the corridors as we were acquaintances as he’d come to parties at my flat. He’s such a genuinely lovely guy! 😊

Shout out to Nick Mohammed. He did such a great job in the role. People legit hate his face and wanted to see him fail. Thats a villian done right.

Nate never struck me as being egotistical. He was insecure. Imagine spending a childhood never feeling like your father ever lifted you up, supported you or was proud of your accomplishments. That sort of thing can seriously cripple you later on, especially if you are already very insecure. Nate isn't a bad person. He just needs to be happy with himself. All his outbursts in series 2 stem from this.

The believe sign being used to bleep Natalie cuss words is so Natalie 😂

Nat - you may already know this but just in case, something you might find interesting: the actor who plays Zava is a Syracuse alum. He went through VPA (as I'm sure you'd expect) and graduated in 2006. (I graduated in '03, so apparently I was a senior when Zava was walking around campus as a freshman.)

"Be Curious, not judgemental" T. Lasso to Natalie.

I don’t know if you’ve realized but Colin being confirmed gay was such an important moment. As you may know there is no out player in the premier league so knowing that Colin is gay is such a big step and they did it so effortlessly. Because there were like clues and stuff (Grindr for example) so it’s great that they confirmed it.

About time. The good news is you don’t have to worry about catching up anymore. Gonna miss this show…

its interested that you see Ted as the one being hung up on and trying for Nate, when its much more beard, roy and the rest of the team that is holding on to what happened

Funny thing is I binged the whole show last week and your previous reactions yesterday. Perfect timing! 😁👍

Natalie: get you mind out of the gutter Episode One: team literally gets in a gutter🤣

S3 let’s go! I’m so excited to see your reaction for this season. Make sure you have tissues nearby 😅

Yay! Glad you're finally doing this. It's so fun and interesting to watch your initial thoughts when I already know where that's going. 😊

Yessss!!! Have been waiting for your season 3 reactions! 🎉🎉 keep up the amazing reaction videos Nat! We love them !

So happy you’re doing this! Was waiting for this to drop

lol at your reaction to Nate on the escalator. It's subtle, but at the same time, very telling.

Watched your reactions to seasons 1 and 2. So glad you’re back with season 3!

If Natalie doesn't watch andor soon, we riot.

been waiting for this one! loved your reactions to the other seasons, can't wait to see what you thought of the rest!

Finally this has arrived! Been waiting on your reactions for this. Perfect timing as well, as I’ve just sat down with a drink and a snack. 🍕🥤

Great to have Ted back on your channel Nat. Really missed your awesome reactions for this show 💛

The first time I had a panic attack was on a city bus at about one thirty in the morning on a Saturday night. In Minneapolis last call 1 am, so I caught the most filled southbound Hennepin Ave. bus possible. I stood in the aisle trying not to think about project deadlines and task lists with impending due dates and working eighteen hour days seven days a week for months on end. I felt myself lose it. I fought. "Get yourself together, man!" My forebrain was yelling, but the rest of my body ignored that entirely and kept hyperventilating. I toppled like a felled tree, hit somebody's thigh with the back of my head on the way down then bonk on the aisle floor. I thought I was dying. Thought I was having a heart attack. Do you know what really, really helps out of control anxiety? It's when three squad cars show up and an ambulance too. And a hundred set of eyeballs watching you intentenly while you get hauled off the bus bodily because the aisle is too narrow for a gurney. Yeah, that whole situation helps out a whole lot. Knowing you screwed up everybody's ride home from a good night out. That's just peachy. I didn't know I was having a severe panic attack until someone told me at HCMC I was having a panic attack. I thought I was having a heart attack. I thought I was dying.

Let’s gooo was waiting for your reactions and unlike some other opinions this season is my second favorite after season 1❤ it’s so wholesome

I have been waiting for this for so long!!!

Yes it’s finically here! So glad you’re finically uploading these

Finally been waiting for these I’m sorry nat ( no spoilers ) this season will make you cry and your tear fuel me

Nate got decimated in the intro. Goddamn 😂

Omg I’ve been WAITING for your reaction to season 3 to drop ahhh!!!

I cannot be the only one who sees Zava as the same character as Camilla Al Jamil from The Good Place.

Finally!!! Was waiting ❤❤❤

FINALLY! This is what I have been waiting for.

FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!

You are amazing, this serie is fenomenal.

Let’s gooooo I can’t tell you how long I’ve been waiting!!!!

Now that you’re about done with Ted Lasso, another feel good, heartwarming show it is in a similar vein is “The Good Place”. I hope you’ll consider reacting to that in the future. 😊

An away fan in a home club bar. In real life thats like one of the unwritten rules of hell no never

I’ve been looking forward to this!!!

"I don't want to go to Chelsea" is a direct quote from an Elvis Costello song and its title from way back. Second album, iirc. Probably 1978.

I am currently watching Ted Lasso and your reactions are so fun to watch after seeing parts of the show

I hope Nat knows that Zava in all his glory is based on a real person 😂

Natalie doesn't give a shit about Nate but you can tell right when it starts, deep down she does care

ive been waiting for this!!!!!!!!!!

Nate has my favorite arc of the whole show.

37:22 it's tradition to shake the hands of the opposing coach after the final whistle.

Okay, totally off topic but im loving Natalies hair 🤙

Oh damn, I need to watch this. Reminds me so much of 'Dream Team', a 90-00's UK football series.

been waiting for this one

I'm a Packers fan. One time I convinced a friend, who was a Bears fan, to join us at a Packers bar for a Packers Bears game. He got a little bit of friendly trash talking but that was it.

Season 3 was really great

I've been waiting soo long for this !! 🎉

Awesome, just got home from work and here we go with some Ted Lasso. You rock, Natalie.🤘 Cheers from Canada. 🥃

Oh my finally!! It’s been so long!

It’s also not just their couples counseling therapist, he was her personal therapist before that. So that man has been around longer than just their couples counseling days

I'M SO HAPPY THIS SAY IS FINALLY HERE!!!

#1 We don't know Ted Lasso is done. That's an assumption based on the final episode of season 3. Come on Natalie, Your killin me smalls, your killin me! Thanks for everything, Love You

I love you Natalie. Ty for your videos and thank you for being you.

I was wondering if you would ever come back to this... I'm so glad! 💕

It's common practice for the coaches to shake hands after a game. Win, lose or draw. It's not because he's obsessed with Nate.

YES!! I was gonna ask when will we get Season 3!!

Everyone jumping on her case about her comment about Nate’s hair are annoying. There’s 500 comments about it. She gets it. Also, maybe he did dye his hair grey over the course of the season to appear more mature and old so he would get more respect. That’s a thing Nate would absolutely do.

"Why are all the little kids in the show so mature?" ...*whispers* trauma, shhhh...

I like how Zava turned out this season. I was worried he'd be a stereotypical jerk. He was just really weird, and a really good player.

Quick fact: The actor playing Zava, Max Osinski, is also a grad of SU drama a la 2006! Go Orange!

Fun fact, Zava is Davis from Agents of Shield!

BOUT TIME!

FYI: During a regular season - teams play each other twice. Once home and once away, so the next game West Ham v Richmond will be in Richmond's home. It's also tradition for coaches to shake hands at the end of each match - that's why the reporter asked Nate about snubbing Ted - Nate was clearly wrapped up in the moment of winning apparently he didn't think/realize what he'd done.

FINALLY!!!

I know theres a low chance youll see this but if you havent watched "Dead to me" YOU SHOULD. Its a very good Dramedy, like the 1st season is just comedy but the 2nd and 3rd is just an emotional rollercoaster. And i know, 3 seasons but theyre 30 minute 10 episodes.

I watched the other two seasons yesterday and was sad season 3 wasn't out!!! So happy!

36:46 this is what we call in England a proper challenge, quality from the player 😂😂😂

All I got to say it's about time Nat

I haven't even watched this yet and I gotta go do something first but had to come comment first thing when I saw this show up in my feed I thought YESSSSSS

Coach does not have a lot of lines , the no ds and mmmh's makes him a wise man. He does have a few super wise lines throughout the series .

Massive missed opportunity not using Roy’s ‘whistle’ for each episode’s title cards!

Fun fact, Zava is based off a famous Swedish player called Zlatan Ibrihimovich, a player who has found success in pretty much every major European football league. He is also quite the character 😉

I feel like Natalie really needed this series after everything else we've put her through. ie. The Last of Us, Game of Thrones, and Stranger Things.

Zava is based on Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Real life footballer that just retired actually, played in the US for LA Galaxy and was given a whole page to write a letter for the fans and all he wrote was “You’re welcome”.. incredible footballer and character but Zava’s attitude, hairstyle and celebration is like Zlatan. I recommend checking some videos of Zlatan to see what i mean, specially interviews.

The *somersault* goal was inspired by Olivier Giroud scorpion goal. The Zava's goal that should have been Jamie is also inspired by Ronaldo goal that is stolen by Evra, which is caught offside

Really glad to see this crop up! I loved this season so much. Your opening remarks about Nate are completely understandable. I hope that over the course of watching this season you came to better understand his hurts and why he lashed out and acted the way he did (in a number of ways; not just with Ted). Not that his issues excuse his behavior, but understanding what brings someone to be the way that they are goes a long way in recognizing how better to respond to them, help them, and connect with them. Kind of like with therapy, I guess? Fitting! I really think Nate's arc over the course of the series is one of the most complex and compelling it has to offer (while simultaneously being funny, frustrating, and more). Goddamn what a great show.

Finally! 🙂 Enjoy the ride

YES FINALLY

Love Rupert's office hommage to Palpatine
