Ted Lasso is about as feel-good as television gets, and is without a doubt one of the most downright enjoyable TV series around, always leaving viewers feeling warm and fuzzy inside. But beyond that, it’s also helped many folks make the decision to seek therapy and get help.

Speaking with US Weekly, star Jason Sudeikis shared the interesting anecdote, saying:

“People have really responded to that. Myself and other people in the cast and the writing staff get messages daily from people thanking them for really opening their eyes to what it means to go to therapy and what it means for someone in their own life to go to therapy and just speaking about these things and taking the stigma off of any form of health whether it be nutrition or mental, emotional health. Anything that you can do to help yourself helps those around you.”

Ted Lasso Seasons 1 and 2 are now streaming on Apple TV+, with a third run already in development.
