I love how Higgins says, “remember, these aren’t my words. It’s Trent Crimm.” and Trent’s voice takes over. Love the writing of this show.
did you notice how the BG music stopped when he said that, and then started again when he continued reading as Trent's voice took over?! lol
Yes!!! Brilliant! I hadn’t noticed. Thank you for sharing!
I love how they intersperse different story lines and somehow they cut the most poignant moments together, like Roy standing up for Nate was built up over the course of the episode, same as the Trent Crimm story, and they seemingly have nothing to do with each other but simply through editing they lead you to the moral of the story. And that's when you realize they did it on purpose.
A British person will never say "root for him". Root in America means to support. Root in Britain means to fuck.
@@whartanto2 Root for him isn't a common term here I would agree aye, but it seems fairly common sense for what is meant in context. As for all the four countries within this country, we've clearly got a lot of different terms, terminologies, slang, or whatever else. I've personally ever heard the term root, in the term you suggest. I'd love to know where that comes from? Can't go wrong with a good shag mind, myself personally just never known root as the same term for a good doing over. I suppose that's just down to the very varied dialects across the isles.
“Vanilla vodka, such a child...” is a massively underrated burn. Jamie’s reaction shows how much that hurt.
Oh yeah, and you can tell Keeley loved it. Small orgasm face right there, lol
Because Jamie knows in his bones that he can do better.
I couldn't agree with you more
The way he headbutts Colin too hahaha, and he’s like “I don’t see so well at night anymore.”
It was probably like 30 proof too, and hit like water
I honestly love how the article is exactly what she wished for and the exact opposite at the same time
Ngl they had her in the first half
Kind of like Ted Lasso himself.
Favorite part of the series
After idk how many viewings, I JUST caught something. "His coaching style never hits you over the head" immediately followed by Roy headbutting Colin. Brilliant
Well he don’t see so well at night anymore.
That’s what colin gets for thinking he’s a Brazilian
@@BigFresh37 i think he was saying don't see so right now referring to headbutt. If you ever headbutted someone, it's equally painful but the receiver never sees it coming so it "hurts" them more. But nah, it fuking hurts and I'll never do it again unless in a fight or flight situation. It is very effective if followed by a liver punch, but i digress.
Woaaaahhh
Also followed the line about encouraging others to lead :)
I like that trent treats ted the way ted does curious not judgement.
Great callback
I think he went in planning to be judgemental but the more time he spent with Ted he couldn't help but be curious and disarmed by Ted's honesty and sincerity
Underrated reply. You're spot on. Especially when you realize what the point of the show really is.
I stand by this scene. This is where we all knew that holy shit, this show is special. This is the moment where we all were rooting for Ted.
Ditto
Just started watching it and thought the same. The first two episodes were great but this one is where it clicked for me.
Couldn’t agree more. Up to this point I thought it was another Blackadder type comedy where cunning plans end up backfiring. But here’s where I was getting an inkling that there’s more going on than meets the eye.
Tell me it's not great writing how Higgins' voice changes to Crimm's when he asks Rebecca to remember these are not his words.
It gives me goosebumps
Thanks for pointing that out.
It’s so subtle but crucial: Higgins’ voice reads the first half of the article and its negativity then Crimm’s voice takes over when the spin changes to positivity. It’s brilliant.
I hadn’t noticed. Thanks!
Also when he says,”his coaching style is subtle, it never beats you over the head.” And then Roy head butts that guy.
I love the look Jaime gives Keely after she says "Roy." He knows what's up.
She's thinking, "I'm done with boys and want a man."
He could feel the seat getting wetter and wetter.
@@vinito19 Oh yeah. Straight up panty monsoon!
@@cvn6555SPOILER ALERT
And then in season 3: “I’m done with men, I want a woman”
Keely was for the streets 😂
Crimm’s got the perfect voice for this
Like.. Severus Snape.. the sports writer.. perfect character.
@@BrandonJohnson-sk2ls He sounds like Tom Hiddleston.
@@PlannedObsolescence omg I'm not the only one who thinks this! he totally reminds me of hiddleston
@@PlannedObsolescence He looks like George Harrison.
It reminds me of Ego's final critique in Ratatouille. Pure art
Ted Lasso is so pure of heart. Can't remember last time I saw a similar lead in a tv show
I think it’s better because he’s not. You see him fall apart in Liverpool and the way he talks to Nate shows that he makes a choice to be that nice but he has the same flaws we all do.
Phil Dunphee is the only other person I can think of. Though he’s part of an ensemble
@@tkaki6029 so is Ted lasso
Kimmie schmidtt
@@bfg3890 I think you misunderstand what being pure of heart is. Lasso makes the choice to be that way, as he's human. And human means we all have flaws and emotions. It's what one does in spite of that fact that can define one as being 'pure of heart'. I guess it depends on whether you consider the outburst of emotion a flaw or not?
i love the moment in the restaurant scene where ted tells trent that he enjoyed their time together and trent just looks at him and says, "you really mean that, don't you?" trent is of course, speaking as the audience with that line, but i think it's also the moment where trent (and by extension, we) decide to root for ted. the show overall is so refreshingly sincere, but also really multilayered, and it speaks volumes when trend is finally able to see that there's more to ted than his goofy persona. that he's the kind of person who is careful with his words, but also genuinely means every word he says. he's not oblivious to the way most people underestimate him, but as trent saw, he still chooses to be kind.
And we later get to know, it's be curious, not judgemental
@@aishwaryachaudhary2933 the dart scene played out perfectly.
He's basically Flanders but toned down, and not the obnoxiously religious in-your-face-better-than-you type. He really is just... nice. Probebly depressed as fuck... but that's what depressed fuckers do, by compensating by being nice. I should know, I do this quite a bit. Half the time I'm drunk. Probebly gonna have a liver failure though...
Waymond in "Everything everywhere all at once" is another great version of this kind of character. If you haven't seen, I 100% recommend.
@@joelcarver8932 Good point. I saw Everything before Ted and remember being refreshed by his type of character.
Trent Crimm, The Independent.
Trent Crimm, The Independent.
Trent Crimm, The Independent.
Trent Crimm, The Independent.
Trent Crimm, The Independent.
For the next question, yes over there, Ted Crimm, The Independent.
“And yes, he’s in over his head. He insisted twice that he didn’t care if Richmond won or lost.” Trent foreshadowing Coach Beard’s argument with Ted.
I DON'T SEE SO WELL AT NIGHT ANYMORE
Clearly sees Keely
"fucking brain development!"
@@kvoltti Her hair is a pretty identifiable silhouette.
This whole episode was so good... I mean, the whole series is so good, lol... but I really loved this episode.
mine's the diamond dogs like chefs kiss
Two Aces is my fav but this sequence and the scene with Roy’s niece was *chefs kiss*
If anyone wants a summary of the entire series, this scene here is enough...This scene perfectly captures the entire essence of Ted Lasso!!!
“Piss off wanker! “Grrr!” “Hi :D”
:D is love
:D is life.
"DON'T HUMANIZE HIM!"
Trent Crimm's voice sounds identical to Tom Hiddleston's
Ngl, he looks like Hiddleston too with that haircut.
you just opened up my world
James Lance (Trent Crimm) should narrate audiobooks. He’s got a wonderfully smooth voice.
One of the best scenes in the show
When Roy acknowledges Keely and she replies, Jamie knows he is bested. 💯
Crimm’s piece essentially encapsulates the entire series…Ted Lasso wins you over with his decency.
This show is precious.
This is my favorite part in the whole show. I mean this episode takes someone so pessimistic about Ted and his ability to not just coach but also thinking Ted isn’t smart that the review he wrote was absolutely brilliant.
This and his dinner with Trent were when I knew this show was special.
what's great about this scene is that it shows the humanity in a sleazy, cynical person like Trent Crimm, everyone in this show has multiple layers. Ted Lasso's charm and personality is able to reach just about everyone
Someone else here pointed out that Trent ended up vieweding Ted with curiosity, not judgement. That seems to be a theme for the show.
I wouldn't call Trent "sleezy", he's just got a real reporter's heart in an otherwise unremarkable field of sports journalism.
@@dac314 Exactly. He has very high standards, and heavily scrutinizes everybody who's a subject of his articles. In a world with a lot of falsehoods, he's understandably a skeptical person. But when he comes across the real deal, like with Ted, he doesn't hesitate to give them the respect they deserve.
What you call 'sleazy' I call 'in too deep'. The guy's got a name to protect, he is a very good sports reporter. No wonder he starts with skepticism.
I don't think Trent is sleazy or cynical. We really don't have enough data. But his article shows what he is. He didn't print a hit job because he saw what ted really was. Crimm is one of my favorite chrs on the show.
Plus I envy his hair.
There are so many good parts in this short 2min clip, but I can’t get enough of Roy showing up to the club and putting Colin in his place with a headbutt following his retirement jab.
This is hands down the best season of TV I have ever seen. I had the blessing of not finding it until after the season finale so I was able to watch it rapidly over the course of a few days. I absolutely LOVED watching Ted win over each person, letting his morality and good kind spirit infect the team, one at a time.
Brilliant writing and story.
“Trent Crimm, The Independent” was one of my favorite episodes…which says a lot from such a superb show/series.
Scene gave me major Anton Ego vibes.
was my thought as well. voiced by the great peter o' toole.
Thank you. Been looking for this exact scene ever since I saw the episode. Well done sir.
This scene (like so many in this show) was so beautiful it literally made me, a full grown man, cry.
A show where u root for character... know every character.. feel the emotion of every character
Really excited for S2
This was the moment I realized this show was something special
This is why we are in a quality “golden age” of TV. You need time to build the changes based on inspiring the team. Are their cliches? Yes there are. Is Jason Sudeikis playing against type ….but 100% believable? Yes. Great writing, character development, little life lessons… but completely on point within the construct of the show.
It's so strange to see Rebecca and Higgins plotting against Ted at this point
Waiting for this scene to be uploaded.
Thanks mate
Btw Ted Lasso one of the best series I saw. It has everything
Personally my favorite scene of the show so far
I love Roy's line about not knowing which one he had just butted and the polite farewell to Keeley.
I think theres a deeper meaning to the voice change besides leslie saying that it wasnt his words. I think the first half of the article is what Crimm has to write as the press, but when it switches to his voice its what he feels as a friend of teds.
nice insight. thank you.
I really love the equation and scenes between Ted and Trent . I mean there aren't many but I love all of them . And Crimm's voice is just wow!!
I wish there are more of their scenes and especially since Trent Crimm is now "independent".
Saw what you did there 😅
Higgins reluctant smile and quips are my favorite. His facial expressions are priceless.
Spoiler
1:55 is amazing foreshadow how the season ends. While yes they do indeed get relegated we were all genuinely rooting for them. It's amazing most audiences don't expect much going in, probably just a few cheap laughs, but then you get completely won over by the sincerity of the show and end up deeply caring for the characters
I rewatched the show recently and it’s really cool because the show has a lot of good foreshadowing and jokes that carry over multiple episodes sometimes
Whatever you think of Ted Lasso as a football coach, I assure you, the truth is harder to swallow ... And swallow you must, because Ted is out there in the community either bravely or stupidly facing the music. That's for you to decide ... And, yes, he's in over his head. He insisted twice that he didn't care if Richmond won or lost. But if the Lasso way is wrong, it's hard to imagine being right ... In a business that celebrates ego, Ted reins his in. His coaching style is subtle. It never hits you over the head ... slowly growing until you can no longer ignore its presence ... Whether that means allowing followers to become leaders, or in a show of respect, eating food so spicy it's sure to wreak massive havoc on his intestinal system ... And though I believe that Ted Lasso will fail here, and Richmond will suffer the embarrassment of relegation, I won't gloat when it happens. Because I can't help but root for him.
It is a great show all around. I love this scene. I also love Rebecca's character development.
There is nothing in this show that would appeal to me. Nothing. Yet this week I’m going to binge it for the fourth time. It’s so, so good!
Incredible show.
I've seen this 50 times and I only just realise even in this scene Colin gushing over a dude... Foreshadowinngggg much :D
Jason Sudeikis really did GREAT making Ted Lasso's character more love-able . you can't help making a place for Ted in your heart , however you might think.
Am i the only one who rewatch this, indian restaurant, and dart game many times.
Damn, Keely looked thirsty at the end of that encounter; and not for vanilla vodka.
Roy complains that he can't see so well at night anymore and yet sees Keeley sitting at least 6 feet away.
This show is full of little details like these.
He’s taking a piss with eyesight complaint, obviously
I love that too.
I would have to think that, since Roy was the one who got the team to stop picking on Nate, Roy will play a role in Nate's undoing in season 3 now that we know that Nate has become the villain.
Season 1&2 Spoilers ahead
I think he's already been a major part of Nate's undoing just in a way that doesn't really involve anything he specifically did.
-Roy gave Nate a voice on the team by stopping him from being bullied, which led to further success that he didn't know how to navigate.
-Nate started doing the "be bigger" advice by spitting at himself due to not getting THE table at his favorite restaurant. Meanwhile the hostess and Nate reference Roy Kent and how if Nate was Roy it wouldn't have been a hassle.
-Nate's hair starts shifting gray after Roy's emergence as a coach, we legitimately see Nate become actively nervous and almost afraid.
-Nate kisses Keely and Roy doesn't respect him enough as a threat for it to mean anything, meanwhile was prepared to kill Jamie for "saying words"
This is the moment Keely decided she was done with boys and wanted a man. The sheer amount of masculinity used to help someone bullied like Nate is exactly what she was looking for. An alpha who used his power for good. Roy was the diamond in the rough. A big tough and gruff guy with a giant heart looking to love and be loved. Tartt never stood a chance
Mate, only wolfes in captivity have alpha, beta and omega males. Don't be held captive, be free, don't use cringy words like alpha.
That’s actually false. Sure, they may not have a pack hierarchy but the alpha male wolf is the one getting the choice mates while the betas, deltas, and omegas get the left overs.
@@shadowofhawk55 again: only Wolfes in captivity behave that way. In the wild, they usually move in family units. The very zoologist that published his observations of pack hierarchy had to later revise his observations and admitted to have observed Wolfes in captivity at the time.
@@IHSchwingo it’s not that deep boo
@@IHSchwingo Yes, family units. And which wolf is the one getting to reproduce? The bigger stronger one that can provide for the mate and cubs or the weaker one with a cough? One is an alpha and one is an omega. It's a genetical ID not a hierarchal one.
I keep coming back to this clip and everytime I am a little bit more convinced that it is my favorite moment from the show
This is such an incredible scene in a show full of incredible scenes. It reminds me of ego's speech in ratatouille.
This scene really reminds me of Ratatouille! 😂😂
Truu
was just fkn thinking the same what the hell
Its Sam's favorite movie which makes a lot of sense
Dude!!!
i'm 8 episodes into the first season as i'm watching it for the first time as i'm enjoying the hell out of that show. i love the fact that ted won over someone as cynical as trent by just being kind and humble. how can you not root for a guy like ted? this is a great show so far
I’m not sure I’ve ever watched a scene so many times
God cinematography is great. The direction too. How the voice changes
Ted Lasso is so pure of heart. Can't remember last time I saw a similar lead in a tv show
Probably about two months before this when someone else posted those exact words.
Mary Tyler Moore came close but even she was no TL
Vanilla Vodka being called back in season 3 was brilliant
This article perfectly sums up the first season. Not that funny, but you can’t help and root for it to succeed because it’s so upbeat and positive!
Not that funny?
“If that’s a joke, I love it.”
You lost me at "Not that funny," but I'm with ya on the"upbeat and positive"
This was the most dramatic comedy or funniest drama I’ve ever seen.
From “can’t wait to unpack that with you,” to the Iverson speech, to the divorce driven by his own compulsive and relentless optimism.
What a show
@@MatthewBakke This show balances comedy and drama in a way that only Scrubs has been able to manage previously. Which isn't surprising since Bill Lawrence created Scrubs and is a co-creator of Ted Lasso.
This is like the spiritual cousin of Anton Ego's review of Remy's cooking @ Gusteau's (Ratatouille) & probably my favorite scene in S1 ♥️
This is one of the first iconic moments from the show for me.
One of the best scenes in the series!
Favorite scene of the whole series
I like how Roy mentions that he can't see clearly at night anymore but saw Keely ❤
Ted Lasso could lift Thors hammer.......
Pixl... Brilliant Underrated comment!
I’ve only just started watching this show and I find it sodding hilarious! The storyline so far already has me gripped - very good writing! ⚽️
This might be my favorite scene of the whole series so far.
holy crap. This scene actually summarizes the whole show. They do lose in the end, but you root for them anyways. Beautiful storytelling.
Noticed how the articles title “Wayward Ted” is likely a play on the song Carry on My Wayward Son, a song by the band Kansas where Trent observed Ted is from at the Indian restaurant
I think that's one level of meaning -- there's also the original Biblical parable of the wayward (e.g., prodigal) son that was an inspiration for the Kansas song. (Which is about the slavery abolitionist John Brown, of all people.) Layers and layers of meaning. Very cool.
I like how the bouncer let Roy in and out of the ropes without a word, even after he head butted a dude.
Trent Crimm is my favorite character.
this made me tear up. great writing
Jamie should have been the recipient of that head butt but I suppose the “vanilla vodka” hurt more and for longer.
Love this scene!
I cry every time watching this scene.
Flips the way of thinking from such a critical journalist with just a day together is remarkably impressive
This was near-perfection....and then Season 2 and 3 happened and it is hard to rewatch.
I love Trent Crimm, The Independent. One of my favorite characters.
Thanks for your endless love and support. I can't get enough of the love you've been showing me which has been an inspiration to my career. I'm grateful. Where are you watching from?
This episode did it for me, I got hooked
"Piss off Wanker!"
"Heuuuurgh!"
"hi"
LMAO
The show took the leap with this scene
In a show where every scene shines, this is one of the brightest.
Watching Ted Lasso the television show is like strolling along a barren beach of cynicism, you know, covered with bleached bones and sarcastic sharp pebbles, only to be struck by a huge tsunami of niceness, dragged out into the Agreeable Sea and smacked in the face with a Empathetic Jellyfish.
You have a way with words. You should write for Ted Lasso. Better yet, you should write your own screen play/book.
@@H1delta lol, I've been writing a book for about 40 years..
this is an awesome scene
The menacing growl at :36 is the most English thing ever.
I don't see so well at night anymore, either, Roy :(
Has nobody noticed that when Higgins calls Rebecca, the caller ID on her phone says "Shithead"?
Yup there’s an episode where Rebecca says “Siri call Shithead” and higgins phone start ringing
Well to be fair, he was helping her husband cheat on her. Everytime he had a girl, Higgins had to keep Rebecca away. So I can't say I blame her
I love how Higgins is saved in Rebecca's phone as Shithead
I'd like to see a shot of the phone now that their relationship has changed.
Vivaldi makes this so much better
Best episode of the entire show
Brilliantly written.
I've never seen this show but judging what i have seen is i think ted is best character of all
I loved this.
I want Trent Crimm to read me a bedtime story every night
Brilliant
As an article, that would be one of the best to read on a Sunday morning!
I hope this series ends with Trent Crimm writing a book with Ted about his experiences.
And guess what happens in Season 3 😏
