Impopular opinions about the TV show Ted Lasso?

Honestly, for me, one of my biggest unpopular opinions is that I didn't really enjoy the episode Beard After Hours. Look, Beard is a character I really like, and I enjoy his interactions, but what I love most about Ted Lasso is the dynamic between the characters and how they interact with each other. I feel like that gets a bit lost in this episode since it's much more introspective. I get that it just comes down to personal taste, but I really didn't enjoy it that much; I even spent part of the episode checking my phone because I just couldn't connect with it. That said, I can completely understand why other people like it.

Another opinion of mine, and I'm not sure if this one is actually unpopular since I haven't read much about it, is that some of Rebecca's storylines, starting even after Season 1, get a bit tedious. Season 1 was fine, but from there on, a lot of her arcs feel way too corporate or overly professional, to the point where it actually bored me at times. I feel like that was a wasted opportunity because she’s a character I genuinely like, and she had so much potential to do cooler things. Instead, they focused either on light romantic subplots that didn't really land for me or on corporate stuff where she basically had to play the 'voice of reason,' which maybe made her a bit less loveable. That said, I did love her redemption arc from being the 'villain' to a good person, as well as her dynamic with Ted and her friendship with Keeley. She’s definitely a great character, it’s just that some of her specific storylines felt like a drag

I would love to know some of your impopular opinions too!
