“Ted Lasso” Loses Mustache in Claymation Christmas Short

If you haven’t had the pleasure of experiencing “Ted Lasso” on Apple TV+, we HIGHLY encourage you to do so. It’s one of those special shows that grows on you the more you watch it. You’ll appreciate every single actor, every scene, every charming Tedism.

Season 2 of “Ted Lasso” surprised us all this past summer with a heartwarming and beautiful Christmas episode. One that is destined to go down in the annals of television history as one of the great seasonal entries.

Apple TV+, aware of awards season looming, just dropped a “Ted Lasso” short, done entirely in claymation. In it, Coach Lasso (Jason Sudeikis) loses his trademark mustache, much to the dismay of the rest of AFC Richmond’s team and staff. You’ll hear other stars from the series voicing their same characters- Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham), Keely (Juno Temple), Roy f*ing Kent (Brett Goldstein) and others.

Catch “Ted Lasso” season 1 and 2 on Apple TV+ now. Enjoy “The Missing Christmas Mustache” below.
