    I'm not a fan of gornography, either, but I love it when it's comical and over-the-top. Even though I can be a bit squeamish, I like it when it's supposed to be funny and I know it's fake.

    Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

It's an admittedly contrived take on English football in which Ted, played by Jason Sudekis, plays a US football coach who is recruited to coach an English football team. It isn't LOL funny, but it is endearingly funny. It is cute and warm and very enjoyable. Jason Sudekis can do more than just slapstick comedy.
    I've not been up to start the second season of the Boys. I will some day. I agree with mlcor on it.

    I love Ted Lasso for the great characters. Next to Miss Maisel my favorite show on TV. Sad that the final episode is this Friday. Probably the only show since I cut the cable 6 years ago that I actually watch the minute each episode is available.

    Nope, it’s on an ancient conventional tv channel, at least here.

    TV you just love (or at least really like)

    My wife and I have tried to limit or cut out most highly violent TV during these times. Bored while working until midnight Wednesday I put on the boys. Not to give away anything I watched until the boating accident. That went so over the line I was done.

    Started Utopia last night with a thirty person body count at the end of the first episode. May not see the end the rest of this one either though the story is ten times better than the Boys.

    To the lighter side the NetFlix ten story Dolly Parton series Heart Strings was excellent and had a great cast of actors that have not seen in a bit for each story.

    I do want to watch Ted Lasso. I just can’t figure out how to get Apple TV to play on my TV.

    There's an app for that.
