12 Hilarious Shows Like Frasier That Fans Should Watch Next

By Christopher Ramos

When the owner of a fictional English soccer team called AFC Richmond hires an American football coach with little knowledge of soccer to mentor the athletes out of spite toward her ex-husband, the sports world reacts with deserved skepticism. However, the move backfires as this coach, Ted Lasso, appears full of optimism and ready to do the work to turn the team around. Over the course of two seasons, Ted Lasso doesn't just win people over, he offers enough helpful advice and support to put his team back on the map. With Rebecca's interest in the sport suddenly reinvigorated and Lasso on her side, the two work together even through their disappointments with a newfound resolve to take them to the top.

As the host of a radio show, it might go without saying that Frasier Crane is known for his meaningful dialogue and the ability to turn a phrase, but he would truly meet his match in Ted Lasso. Fluctuating from the utterly nonsensical to the deeply felt and profound, Lasso's one-liners, witticisms, and words of encouragement have given birth to seemingly endless memes and gifs across various social media channels for their ability to both resonate emotionally as well as make audiences smile. Things aren't always easy for Ted, and he even sometimes lets the people he cares about down, but that desire to stick with it and see things through to the end is a major part of what makes the series so beloved.
