What We’re Watching: Ted Lasso “Sunflowers” and Brothers and Sisters “An American Family”

On this week's entertainment-themed Round 2, the Ted Lasso crew goes on a somewhat trippy trip to Amsterdam. The players vow to stick together as a team, but everyone else is isolated in their own storyline. We'd like some ensemble back in this ensemble show, please! Next (in two weeks): Season 3, episodes 7 and 8.

The best thing about this episode is the appearance of <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0641354/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Denis O'Hare</a> as the senator's campaign manager. Next (in two weeks, as Terri will be recovering from surgery next week--sadly without a Nora to take care of her): season 2, episode 3, "History Repeating."
