[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The episode prior to the finale, Ted told Rebecca they needed to talk. We knew/assumed it was to tell her he's quitting. [/quote]

Some people would have preferred to see it, rather than just have it implied. When you are invested in characters, it's a lot less fun or interesting to simply be told later "yup, that's what they decided."

It was the same when Nate quit -- many viewers were frustrated that the show didn't bother include a pivotal scene between two important characters.

If you have time for a 5 minute musical number and multiple locker room speeches, you have time to show us two characters experiencing in real time a really significant moment in their lives.

This season wasted so much time on weird stuff (like Keely's entire relationship with Jack, for starters) but then glossed right over a bunch of central plot lines. I don't get it.[/quote]

DP.  That’s because they assumed the audience was smart enough not to need a literal play-by-play.   :shock: [/quote]

NP. There’s an obvious difference between “smart enough to understand the story” and “input on what would have made the story better from my standpoint as a viewer.” The writers made some unusual and slightly baffling choices this season, and it’s possible to enjoy the show/finale and still question some of those decisions.

Google Rolling Stone and Ted Lasso finale- they have take on season 3 that tracks what you say above [/quote]

Heck yes!!! Sooooooo many missed opportunities to invite us in on these big plot twists- Roy and Keelah break up, Nate’s firing, being invited back to the club, sooooo much more. They blew it! And yes I still absolutely loved it. Both things can be true!! It’s not a game of thrones scorched earth scenario. It was still amaze.[/quote]
