Well, well, well ... Who would have thought that a sports comedy takes folksiness to a new level of sophistication by sharp writing and some self-awareness (as overused as the fish-out-of-water set-up may be, it's incredibly funny). With each and every Episode I grew more and more fond of this Series. Ted wins you over just like he does everyone else. Sure, there are a series of predictably base clashes of culture and stereotypes, but as the show progresses, the writers settle into a rhythm that lets the humor feel less forced, making it easier to concentrate on all of the show's other pleasures. The character is practically impossible not to like, and in a time of so much anxiety and frustration, it’s refreshing to spend time with someone like Ted.
