Trent Crimm ( The Independent): “It’s a lovely novel. Roy: “I mean, what even is A Wrinkle In Time?” This is when I started really paying attention to how books are used in the story! Luckily, the show explains the significance of this one: This, of course, is the book Ted assigns to Roy when he gives every member of the team a book. I assume these are all planted deliberately, and that if I can just crack the code, I will be able to unveil all the easter eggs hidden in plain sight! (Okay, I might have mixed some metaphors there, but I don’t think Ted would mind.) So I have gone through the first reason and noted every book mentioned, referenced, or shown, no matter how briefly. In fact, some of the most memorable character moments come from their interactions with literature. Ted Lasso is a show that loves to make references, from music (and musicals) to movies and books. And what does a fan do while eagerly awaiting a sequel? They speculate. Our favorite mustachioed fish out of water coach returns July 23, but until then, I have nothing to do but wait. It’s rare to watch something that is so unabashedly celebrating kindness and sincerity, especially from a comedy. I want to always feel the way I feel when I’m watching it. If you’ve watched it, though, you know there’s something about Ted Lasso. I have never before finished a TV show and immediately began at the beginning again - never mind twice in a row. I am fresh off my third back-to-back watch of Ted Lasso.
