NEW SHOWS
Ted Lasso – “Inventing the Pyramid of Success” (A-) / season finale
After a season that occasionally meandered, it ends on a mostly hopeful note. There were some things that still didn’t work about this season as a whole, but this was a very satisfying wrap-up with lots of great moments, including Dani’s penalty kick, Sam Richardson throwing one of the all-time great TV tantrums, and Roy’s induction into the Diamond Dogs.
BINGEING
Seinfeld – Season 1 (B+ average)
For obvious reasons, it’s the least-watched and least-revisited season. But it’s still amazing how quickly the show found its rhythm, eventually becoming one of the greatest things ever broadcast.
