Ted Lasso and AFC Richmond are back for season 2!
The beloved Apple TV+ sports comedy announced on Tuesday that its sophomore season will debut on the streaming service on July 23, and shared a first look with fans at how Ted (Jason Sudeikis) and his team will be handling relegation in the upcoming episodes.
It seems like things might get off to a lukewarm start with an announcer declaring the team has racked up not two, not three, but
eight straight of Ted s dreaded tie matches. Of course, the skipper remains characteristically positive.
Has a Best Picture race ever felt like
such a done deal? Even in years where there s been an obvious frontrunner, there was still some room for surprise come Oscars night. That doesn t seem to be the case this year, where
Nomadland is so primed to win that if any other film were read off, we would say,
Why do they keep letting Warren Beatty present Best Picture?!
