I respect the modern trend towards shows (and books and movies) that have definite end-points. While I get that the goal is always 7 seasons and a movie, I’m much happier with a story that has a definite start, middle, and end.
Ted Lasso nailed that. The show ended exactly when it should end, with everyone doing what they were supposed to be doing in the place that they should be doing it. It was a joy from start to finish.
Now, the later seasons never hit the highs of the first, in my humble opinion, but that’s not a problem since the later seasons were still really good. The character arcs for almost everyone were fantastic! The conclusion was sad yet satisfying! I can’t compliment the writers, actors, and crew enough. Just a great story.
Now with that done, I have to go and see if I can wrap up my own story as satisfyingly! Wish me luck!
Hope everyone out there is staying safe and healthy!
