It seems Ted Lasso really is winning over everyone: Jason Sudeikis won the musical or comedy series actor statue at the 78th Annual Golden Globe Awards.
This was Sudeikis’ first-ever nomination from the HFPA and therefore first win. It came for his portrayal of the titular American football coach who crossed the pond to work for a Premier League team in Apple TV Plus’ freshman half-hour. But, Sudeikis first portrayed the character more than half a decade ago, in promotional videos for NBC Sports’ coverage of the real-life Premier League. The expansion of the character in a feel-good sitcom won over audiences and critics alike when it premiered during the tumultuous summer of 2020, and it has picked up its first award too.
