Casting stories
How the made it very similar to the Empire Strikes Back
Grey wig (I was curious about this one)
Friendship between Rebecca and Keely (Honestly, I could have read a lot more about this)
How much Jason was in every part of this
Blueprint for the three seasons - down to the music that ended the show
Beard = soccer/football expert
Pop Culture Moments - several I didn't get but now understand
The full circle moments
How it was shot:
Season 1: before the pandemic. No one knew about the show.
Season 2: during the pandemic - after the show had just won a bunch of awards. Longer episodes and two more: Christmas and Bear After Hours.
Season 3: after the pandemic and in front of crowds - longer shoots.
Writing still happening during the entire show, but much more during the last season, because they wanted to tie up all the stories and get it right.
How the filmed the show, especially the soccer scenes. That was very interesting to read about. And it seems like a nightmare to shoot and then edit. It makes sense why there was so much time between the seasons.
What I wish it had more of:
Trent Crimm - they didn't really mention too much about the book he was writing
Honestly, I could have read so many more pages to this book. It was really good. Highly recommended if you're a fan of Ted Lasso.
