Season 2 episode 1 right off the bat. Heartbreaking. You don’t see it but you hear it and know it’s going to happen. Greyhound gets killed by a football. Ted has a touching speech about another dog he knew who died. Then Dani struggles with it and there’s a dream where he kills a cartoon dog and is splattered with his blood.

SPOILERS: This is a recurring theme of the show.
Notably, we learn than Jamie was/is verbally, emotionally, and physically abused by his father and goes on to abuse others. Nate also is abused by others in season one, and then uses his new position of power to abuse others in season 2.

Any instances are comedic/mild, like different football players being held back from tying to fight during a game.

not necessarily assault, but definitely some iffy moments wrt consent. s2e11: a man kisses a woman without her consent, but he quickly pulls away and apologizes and she doesn’t appear to be severely impacted by it. s3e6: a character mentions that his abusive father took him to lose his virginity to a sex worker when he was 14, and it’s implied that he was traumatized by it. s3e8: a character has a private nude video leaked online. she also mentions previously having had a relationship with a teacher when she was in high school.

In a dream-like sequence in S02E08, a character who's established to be a figment of Coach Beard's imagination tells him to kill himself. It's said in a joking, over-the-top way and played for laughs, but reflects Beard's real self-loathing issues.

Nate gets trapped in the storage area underneath the bus. Little time is spent in the storage area, but if you get secondhand discomfort from characters being claustrophobic situations this scene may affect you.

The closest would be in Season 2 for "Led Tasso" which is a harsher personality of Ted Lasso. Coach Beard has to "snap him out of it". It could come off as a "switch", especially because Ted says "how long was I gone this time" which can be common for systems who experience amnesia during switches. Our system wouldn't consider it misrepresentation, though.

Season 2, I think Rainbow (episode 5), there's a couple who explain directly to the camera how they met, about 3/4 of the way through the episode (during crowd shots before a game)

alot of abelist sentiment is thrown around in the finale of season two when a journalist outs ted's panic attacks, commentators calling him unfit and wrong in the head. many make sly jokes about ted actually being alright.

In episode 5 of season 2, Roy makes a comment about his aunt having a mustache, and Ted jokes that he’s sorry for her appearance. Not the same but I feel like it’s similar category of joke

A 21 year old and a woman in her 40's date, in season 2 as a major plot point. There is a mention about grooming/p*dophilia, but they are two consenting adults. It is pretty off-putting though, and a majority of the characters are supportive of the relationship.

No sexually charged nudity in seasons 1 and 2, but there is one short scene where a couple of men's butts are seen in the locker room as the athletes are changing and one episode where a character looks at several very realistic pencil drawings of breasts. Neither scene is in a sexual context.
