Ted Lasso S3 Thoughts!
I want to talk about my overall thoughts on Season 3 before the finale comes out, because I’m sure I’ll have a lot to say about that! So let’s just get right into it. A lot of plot points and storylines felt like 1-off, little set ‘em up knock ‘em down types of things, as opposed to full arcs that carried a clear theme throughout the season. A big part of this is the focus being on such a wide variety of characters, and having to cover so many stories at once. This led to Ted being sidelined a bit? Don’t get me wrong, he’s still a huge part of the show, and had some great moments this season, but there was still a clear shift from previous seasons. In some ways I think this made a lot of sense- the team is becoming more like a family, we’re getting to know everyone and understand their individual stories more. While I like that idea, the lack of consistency when it came to Ted’s screen time was noticeable (he’s kind of the beating heart of the show). Some of the strongest episodes were ones where he was at the forefront. This whole season just felt a little less cohesive, with so many different things going on. Some of the extended arcs, like Colin’s and Nate’s were good, though. And as I’ve seen a number of other people pointing out, it kind of felt like they were just trying to cram as many hot topics into the season as they could, because they couldn’t really afford to focus on that many specific characters having longer arcs (which again, is why many of the characters had 1-2 episode arcs so that the focus could then be shifted to someone else). It starts to seem a bit like they were running out of ideas, so I’m glad they’re ending the show with intention instead of dragging it out. Another part of this issue (something that @king-author pointed out really well), is that we didn’t get to witness a lot of the important, impactful moments (particularly concerning Nate’s storyline). I think this season would’ve been a lot better (not that it was bad, just a bit of a step down), if they had chosen to focus on these bigger storylines and developing particular characters, as opposed to creating a bunch of random problems to keep everyone involved.
One particular storyline I’ve got issues with- I didn’t really see a point to the whole Keeley/Roy/Jack thing? Roy and Keeley’s breakup never really made all that much sense in the first place, but I understand the benefit of having Keeley go solo for a while. But then why bring Jack into the mix? It was pretty clear that Roy and Keeley were going to get back together, and so I didn’t really see any point to their relationship beyond an excuse to give Keeley more screen time (which I think could’ve been used in better ways).
So overall, this season has been kind of hit and miss. Since I talked about some of the misses already, let’s go over some of the hits! This last episode was absolute fantastic, between Roy and Keeley being back together, Ted having impactful tear-jerker moments, and Jamie having a moving arc once again, it felt like old times. Rebecca had some great moments as well recently, particularly her speech and everything with Rupert in Episode 10. She’s such a wonderful character, and that was a fantastic way to end her multi-season arc with Rupert. I also loved Jade! She and Nate have a fantastic dynamic, I really like the impact she’s had on him, she’s just a perfect addition to the show. And I think this goes without saying, but so many of the characters remain totally delightful (Sam, Jamie, Dani, Will, etc). This show is still wildly wholesome, sweet, and entertaining. And judging from the last few episodes, they’re going out strong! I have no doubt that the finale will be fantastic.
Anyways, I didn’t expect this review to be this long! If anyone actually made it this far, thanks for reading, and let me know what you think! Do you agree, and what did you like/dislike about this season?

Don't mind me, just putting on my screenwriter hat to dream up Ted Lasso s4:
4.01 - Sleepless in Richmond
AFC Richmond adjusts to life without Ted. Newly-appointed Diamond Dog Roy has some big news to share.
4.02 - All 'Er Nuthin'
Ted receives an ultimatum.
4.03 - My Best Friend's Wedding
Keeley and Shandy's rivalry continues over a wedding dress.
4.04 - The Winner Takes It All
The team faces their toughest match of the season. Rebecca and Bex face off against Rupert.
4.05 - The Parent Trap
Ted & Michelle struggle with co-parenting. In the run-up to Roy & Keeley's wedding, an honest mistake puts Ted & Rebecca in an awkward position.
4.06 - Exes and Oh's
Roy, Keeley and Jamie have a difficult conversation.
4.07 - Ding Dong, The Rich Man's Dead
A shock death rocks Richmond.
4.08 - Girls Just Wanna Have Funds
Keeley finds her feet with her new business venture. Eventful hen and stag parties leave everyone with more questions than answers.
4.09 - Reason to Believe
Ted returns to Richmond. Revelations from Trent's book come back to haunt him.
4.10 - People Will Say We're In Love
Roy & Keeley's wedding day arrives. Ted & Rebecca have some unfinished business to address.

so riddle me this
Jamie directly credits his relationship with Keeley as helping him be a better man - either she urges him to better himself or encourages him to speak with others (Ted, Sharon) who can help him, and fandom rightly thinks that’s sweet
Keeley’s belief in Roy helps him be more confident and less prone to take his anger out on others when he’s in a romantic relationship with her, and we think that’s a reason why they should be together
but when it comes to Nate - who lbr is never shown to act kind to ‘impress’ Jade or starts being better because she tells him to; it’s simply that being around Jade brings out his more authentic self which we know is kinder and better than the alpha male big dog he was pretending to be - his reformation arc is ‘all about a woman and toxic and therefore doesn’t count’?
interesting

I'm so fascinated by what Ted Lasso has done with Jade in this season. I thought the "lesson" was going to be that no matter how "big" you get there's always going to be someone you can't impress, someone who dislikes you, just because. (Or possibly because they had to clean your spit off the restaurant's bathroom mirror, but that's just speculation. . . .) And Nate, who falls to pieces if even one online rando doesn't acknowledge his worth, would have to learn to deal with this disdain from a lowly waitress.
But instead, it's become a story about Nate meeting someone who is not interested in being impressed. Which makes so much sense if you've worked in the service industry. Jade has likely seen men put on a show, over and over again. She's probably been hit on and been looked down on by well-off creeps for years.
Some commentators say that Jade started to like Nate when she felt sorry for him. But I think it was actually when he defended the restaurant to his date, admitting that it might not be much to look at, but the food was very good and it was personally important to Nate and his family. Because this is the first time she's seen Nate act outside his ego. It's the first time she's seen him be real and genuine, praising something for an inherent quality rather than a glossy perception.
I think Jade is attracted to honesty and realness, and that's a very interesting combination with Nate, who has been endlessly seeking external validation even at the cost of reinventing himself.
