And the fictional team’s home ground is none other than Selhurst Park, which became a film set for the new series back in November 2019. It is the second time international production crews have selected the club’s stadium as a base for a fictional football team, following in the steps of ITV’s Footballers’ Wives back in 2002.
The Ted Lasso series was created by several acclaimed executive producers including Sudeikis and Bill Lawrence, who is best known for his work on hit medical comedy series ‘Scrubs’. Supporters may be familiar with the lead character, as the series is based on the clueless coach who starred in a promo for NBC’s coverage of the Premier League.
