#also its very pro queer and every male character at some point has their inner feminist awakening

Unrelated but I just watched the Ted Lasso finale and the utter amount of balls these writers have is mind blowing to me.

Not once but TWICE did they make the choice not to make the most obvious and popular ships canon.

And they even deceived you at the start into believing the opposite. It’s just insane to me because I’m so used to shows basically going down on their audience and approving as many wishes as possible. But nope. They really went out there and said:

“Listen up, this season Ted is going to leave even though everyone wants him to stay, Keeley will be canonically bisexual, Coach Beard get’s outed as a former meth junkie, one episode will just randomly take place in Amsterdam cause why the fuck not, Rebecca will get together with a random Dutch man, Collin will have a whole coming out arc and then this random cocky guy named Zava will pop up for a couple of episodes only to later leave the club to start a wholesome avocado farm with his wife.”

Exactly nobody asked for this but they did it anyways and pulled it off in an amazing fashion. That’s about as fucking punk as a show that’s on AppleTv+ can get if you ask me.
