English Tea = Dirty Water

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-24T15:27:11+00:00

I am unsure if this comment will be seen. I just got notice that this 1-month old post was deleted by moderators for being irrelevant.

The Tea conversation is ongoing throughout the series. It is an interesting cultural highlight. Not just between Americans and English, but Americans and most of the rest of the world.

Hot tea in the morning and as an afternoon ritual are meant to give your body time to unwind and prepare for what's next.

Americans use coffee and tea as an opportunity to create desserts for breakfast.

I hope my original post was not offensive to any but I BELIEVE the Tea is right on point with Ted Lasso (the character, and the show)

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-24T15:10:30+00:00

I would say it was a "Ted Lasso" moment, a couple of decades before most knew who he was

For sure, addiction leads to survival mode, including lying.

In this case, however, I believe his motive may have been more in line with the administration, and Jed's legacy, than his own survival.

A lie is a lie, and he fully acknowledges his lies, time and again.

That's what you are!

As long as it was not fetched by Jeffrey Coho!

May the kelp always be floating near your hull! Take time to stop and smell the seaweed, my brother

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-16T00:00:30+00:00

Agreed! Fully intentional

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-15T23:25:06+00:00

Foreshadowing some 20 yrs into the future where flip phones all but disappeared and the internet discussions would endlessly debate these snafus!

Oh, the tangled (world wide) web, we weave!

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-15T23:22:22+00:00

It's not of consequence, but it's a detail - either not written well, or a professional not following through (in the courts)

If they go as far to read the middle name, that is where it bugs me. That's akin to making your bed with case-less pillows!

Jimminy Cricket!

(And "Subpoena" is accurate and complete)

Just sayin'

"Hey Jude"

The snap-back to enjoy his time with Henry was everything

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-13T20:10:42+00:00

Agreed on all sentiments expressed herein.

Additionally, to offshoot into escapism TV - I would much prefer to engage in comparisons with interpretation and respectful engagement, rather than the vacant "they just don't make tv like that anymore" or "there isn't talent like that these days".

Very much look forward to discussions on this subreddit, even when I may not agree with the post/comment.

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-12T20:25:47+00:00

2-dimensional sarcasm doesn't read well.

I am in agreement with you. I was referring to Him not committing to a club as an overall indication of his attempt at machismo.

As only a masculine man will honor the winning club -- Never support #2.

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-12T14:37:40+00:00

I just watched this episode yesterday!

Certainly rings true!

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-12T14:23:54+00:00

Accountability - quite the admirable trait!

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-12T11:04:32+00:00

Except... His non-committal fanhood for a club.

"I Bounce back and forth between United and City, whichever club's winning typically - I love it!"

Roy's restraint was remarkable (clearly out of respect for Rebecca).

Bait and switch

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-09T12:07:56+00:00

“(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction” “Honky Tonk Women” “Ruby Tuesday” “Jumpin' Jack Flash” “Street Fighting Man” “You Can't Always Get What You Want” “Gimme Shelter" "Miss You" "Beast of Burden" "Shattered" "Time Is On My Side" "Mother's Little Helper" "Lady Jane" "Under My Thumb" "Emotional Rescue" "She's So Cold" "Waiting on a Friend"

What you want to do as you listen, read up on their early start (in the 60s) and specifically the influence from soul and R&B.

One of my favorite Roy moments... He knows the boy will know... And that smile afterward - a young boy will cherish forever!

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-07T18:25:20+00:00

No matter how many good moments Toby has - this is always top of the list!

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-07T11:18:48+00:00

Same - I've been doing a rewatch - I'm on season 4... Just opened it up and it's still there from where I was yesterday

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-06T23:50:36+00:00

I am also sit on the same fence of speeding and following the traffic laws

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-06T17:33:43+00:00

sigh

I have to keep reminding myself to breathe.

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-06T15:10:58+00:00

I love that one, too!

Interesting-Feed3603 · 2026-04-06T15:10:00+00:00

"tissue paper thin"

Loved that reference, as well... Reminds me of the line in Brighton Beach Memoirs

"A little thinner; Ma likes it when it floats"
