In addition to consistently delighting viewers, Ted Lasso has numerous elements (such as the AFC Richmond Greyhounds) that we secretly wish were real (and definitely Roy Kent). But although some things must remain in the realm of fiction, others, like Bantr, have the potential to become real. Because dating apps are a necessary evil of modern romance, the usual acclaim might lose its lustre after a time. Because of Keeley’s efforts, though, you can now give the Bantr app a try and see why they’re sponsoring our favourite team (Juno Temple). Sam (Toheeb Jimoh) and Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham) have given us a great connection thanks to the app, and now fans may utilise the app to discover their own love.
It’s a joint venture with the Bumble dating app. But that doesn’t make it any less awesome overall! Season 2 included significant use of the app. For a good portion of the season, we wondered who Rebecca was talking to on the app & many speculated it was Jason Sudeikis’ Ted Lasso, only to reveal Sam on the other end of the flirty texts, and their very cute relationship began to blossom from there. But now you may arrange your own secret gathering to find out who clicks with you. According to Variety, the weekly “Bantr Live” experience will launch on Thursday, October 13 at 7 p.m. local time in Bumble’s Date Mode, allowing users to be matched without seeing each other’s profile pictures (like in the show) and allowing the two to chat for 3 minutes with the option of continuing the conversation and seeing each other’s profile afterwards.
“putting personality first & connecting people in a fun, pressure-free way,” as Bumble puts it, is at the heart of the Bantr format, which is being brought to life by the promotion. Olivia Yu, Global VP of Partnerships, expressed her company’s enthusiasm for the event, saying, “As major fans of ‘Ted Lasso,’ we were so happy to deliver the Bantr Live experience to our community.” By using Bantr Live, members of our community may meet new people and get to know them better before they even meet in person. Using Bantr Live will be a blast, and we can’t wait to see how Bumble users use it to meet and date in a whole new way. Isn’t it amazing that there’s a way to express your admiration for Ted Lasso while you search for your own soul mate?
Ted Lasso, all seasons, are currently available on Apple TV+.
