Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney Demand Ted Lasso Biscuits in Satirical Letter Addressed to Apple TV+

Kind of hate this type of corporate "nice guy" personas they put out. These millionaires and billionares are like "hey normal pleb people, we're just like you!!! we have a quirky sense of humor just like youuuu!! buy and our movies and shows! How could you not? we're your parasocial friends now!!" It's just promotion masquerading as heartfelt human interaction, which kind of defeats the whole point.

Not officially, but I'm sure when Rob is ready to focus on it (He is busy with Sunny rn) all he needs to do is ask Apple for it. I highly doubt they would say no.

To date, Little Voice is the only Apple TV+ original to officially ended its run.

But these non-kids/docu-series have yet to be renewed:
  • Amazing Stories (it's been 16 months so I think it's safe to say it won't be renewed)
  • Ghostwriter (finished its second season 3 months ago)
  • Home Before Dark (just finished its second season)
  • Mythic Quest (finished its second season 2 months ago)
  • Schimigadoon! (just finished its first season)
As much as I would love another season (or reboot) of Mythic Quest, the last episode closed all the loose ends nicely.

They really messed up the show this season. There's absolutely no conflict or storyline this season, as conflict is the center of a story. Very passive. Season 1 was brilliant, but season 2 phoned it in.

I wouldn't go so far to say they messed it up, but I do think everyone's just a bit too friendly. You need Roy to be more of an ****** to sell his gruffness better. And everyone else is just getting along too much now. The last ep was really good, I thought, and it's still enjoyable, but def a step down from season 1.
Though I do wonder how much of the praise season 1 gets was from the zero-level of expectations from a show based on an NBC Sports promo skit that actually turned out to be good.

I could have sworn I saw on one of the Apple rumor platforms that Apple just announced they did. I believe it was around the time the first episode of season two dropped.

You are probably thinking of Ted Lasso. That had seasons 2 and 3 renewed simultaneously. Mythic Quest has not been renewed. I think Apple would have liked to renew it. The shows creator wanted at least a hiatus because of too many other projects. That is why they ended season two in a way that they wouldn‘t need to bring everyone back.

Season 1 praise had nothing to do with that - I had no idea what it was about and just watched it. It's really was a good show. There really was drama and tension in Season 1. None of that here in Season 2.

If I have a complaint about this season, it’s that the conflicts seem to be resolved too quickly. The resolutions themselves are fine, but the way the show is edited, it’s resolve very quickly and doesn’t have the same effect

It seemed obvious that Jamie would return to the team. And the team wasn’t happy, especially Sam. But by the end of the next episode, it’s all worked out fine.

Which leads me to wonder

Now that Roy is a coach, how will Nate respond? Seems like Nate is worried. not that I think Nate will leave.

People not watching Apple+ because it is Apple sure are missing out on quality TV.

I beg to differ, better content are found elsewhere worth my spare time.

Peacock: The Office, Parks and recreation, Dateline
Disney+
HBO: Sopranos, The Wire, Chernobyl, Boardwalk Empire
