If you liked Ted Lasso, you should totally check out #WelcometoWrexham. It's like real life Ted Lasso. Very cute & compelling documentary. The real life folks seem eerily similar to Lasso. From fans to bar regulars to volunteers to struggling players & staff to promotion hopes.
Ryan Reynolds & Rob McEllhenney bought this struggling club on the 5th tier of English football and hope to promote it up the ladder. I thought they were friends but no, they had never met before!
The celeb owners mostly stay in the background. Very interesting documentary idea

Don't go into the documentary expecting always sunny or mythic quest or Deadpool type jokes though. It's not really a funny watch. More like a big socio-entertainment experiment. The supporters needed to vote 75% for the celeb takeover. They voted 98%! Knowing of the doc plans.
