It's finally time to watch Ted Lasso season 2 online, and for those who have yet to believe, know that you can start it for free too. Yes, on Friday (July 23), the season premiere of Ted Lasso brought everyone's favorite football (which he may still call soccer in his head) coach back to the pitch. 

But how will things have changed now that AFC Richmond is no longer in the Premier League

Ted Lasso season 2 will see the unflappable coach picking up the pieces after his team's disastrous relegation at the end of the show's first season. It's a whole new ball game in the lower leagues and Ted Lasso (Jason Sudeikis) will need every ounce of his boundless optimism to drag AFC Richmond back to the big time. 

Off the field, former-star player Roy Kent (Brett Goldstein) is still adjusting to life outside the first team, while continuing to build his relationship with Keeley Jones (Juno Temple). Club owner Rebecca Welton (Hannah Waddingham) is still coming to terms with her messy divorce but her newfound change of heart will see her working with Ted rather than against him.  

Ted Lasso season 2 will also give expanded roles to some of the supporting cast from the first season. Dani Rojas (Cristo Fernández) and Sam Obisanya (Toheeb Jimoh) are expected to have a bigger part to play in the show's second outing. 

Early critic reviews have been overwhelmingly positive. Any fears that Ted Lasso season 2 would fail to recapture the sense of joy that the first season was so beloved for can be shelved.
