Ted Lasso’s dating profile problem says a lot about the show itself
"Ted Lasso"s Season 4, episode 7 dating app subplot speaks to one of the show's biggest weaknesses: too-long runtimes.
Ted Lasso's character flaw of verbosity has become a hindrance in Season 4 of the show, as his lengthy conversations become less endearing and more irritating. In the latest episode, "Yes & Baby," Ted attempts to create a dating profile on Bantr, but his struggle to summarize himself in just three words highlights his excessive talking.
The issue goes beyond Ted, as the show's runtime has also expanded, resulting in bloated episodes and an overwhelming number of storylines. Season 4, a year after the show's supposedly final season, fails to address these problems, leaving the series feeling as if it needs "some trimming."
