As a disabled person who's loved LEVERAGE and LEVERAGE REDEMPTION since the beginning - for the characters but also the whole ethos of performing acts that help people against crap systems, it's wonderful to be reminded that it springs from reality.

Something I find interesting about reading what issues people have with movies/tv shows is the pedastal so many put them on. And by that I mean, the idea that 'they handled this storyline WELL and this character got xyz- so why didnt they do abc with this other character?' as if its a moral failing that two separate characters didnt get perfect tied up with a bow resolves.
The function of the characters is to serve the overall story of the project- and vice versa- and particularly when you're speaking about media with a strong focus on an ensemble of human beings- their "endings" are going to vary greatly because it would be inauthentic to wrap everyone's stories up at the same time- everyones lives are a constant changing ebbing and flowing of positive and negative experiences, which affect how we move through the world- the ending you see isn't the end (unless its a show like blackadder which kills off all of its characters at the end of each season oh yeah spoiler alert for a show that ended decades ago)
I understand being sad that a storyline didnt pan out how you wanted it to- but the weird moral purity standard that is expected at the moment is very bizarre to me

The thing about Ted Lasso that connects with me personally so much (and this post will have a lot of infodump about my own life prewarning) is that growing up I had a Dad who lived several timeszones ahead of me from when I was 7, and me and my brother would see him twice a year- we'd get put on planes as unaccompanied minors to go see him in the summer, and he'd come over for a week or so for christmas- but unlike Ted and Henry- we wouldn't hear from him in between.
Seeing Ted struggle so much with how much he misses his son makes me love Ted so much- but there's also a part of me that get angrier with my own Dad- because he would tell me during the summer 'email me more- keep me updated on your life!' but then when I would email him- he wouldn't reply. So i stopped.
The only time he called off season was to try to guilt trip me into coming to see his own father- who had always refused to interact with us which is a whole other story- but the importace here is that he had deliberately iced us out, and that my dad tried to emotionally manipulate me into flying across the world, by myself, to sit in a hospital with this man who ignored me- and it really broke what trust i had left.
When I finished school the only messages I would get from him are emails with TedTalks about giving up on your dreams and settling down with a more stable career, or an email to tell me and my brother (who'd recently had a stroke) to use the free time we had during lockdown to 'better ourselves'- without so much of a 'how are you feeling/coping on your own during this very difficult and scary experience'
And now as an adult we don't really have much of a relationship, and he apparently has complained to my Mum that me and my brother don't talk to him- and I just think about Ted Lasso- and how even when he's several hours ahead, he makes the time to talk to Henry every day- to be involved with his life and keep up with the things that matter to him. How he checks in with him.
I know Henry is a fictional character, but he won't have to wonder how much his parents care about him and think about him when they're not physically present. He won't have to wonder if his Dad remembers he exists when he's not there with him physically.
I know that some still see Ted's moving to London as him abandoning his son- but I don't. Because he was still so present in his life. It's not ideal- but its not abandonment.
