The Ted Lasso finale's callbacks and the show's parallels to Wizard of Oz

This was one of the best shows of recent years - but I think it could have benefited from a 4th season. Then they could have used 2 years to get Nathan Shelly (The wonderki(n)d) redemption arc more believable.

As well they could have spent some time and explored:

  • the money guy that hates Obisanya,
  • the superstar weirdo that just vanished halfway through,
  • and the prospect of actually selling the team if Ted left.

Still, really great and entertaining. (This coming from a guy that really doesn’t like sports. Hate is a strong word…)
