Goofs
Sam uses the word harbor in his tweet. Being from a Commonwealth country he would use British English spellings rather than American English.

Unwatchable

I hate to write this, but this is the episode where Ted Lasso has ended for me: RIP, Season 3 episode 7. I watched half of it and could not stand for any more of it. I realized I was telling myself that I didn't really care about any of the characters, the plot is boring and lifeless, and the scenes are forced and not funny.

Additionally, the themes are so obviously heavy-handed now, that the entertainment has completely slipped away. I wish it were not the case, but for a show I used to recommend to everyone, I can no longer. It has become a total waste of time for me, and there's plenty of original content out there to be entertained by.

Farewell Ted.
