'Ted Lasso' to Return to Apple TV+ as Season Four Allegedly 'Confirmed'

Ted Lasso will be returning for a fourth season, according to Sigmund Judge, a writer at MacStories and co-host of the Magic Rays of Light podcast.

In a social media post today, Judge said he has confirmed that pre-production of the smash-hit Apple TV+ comedy series will begin in January in London, England. Apple has yet to confirm the fourth season, and there is no set release date yet.

The third season of Ted Lasso ran from March through May of 2023.

Ted Lasso, played by Jason Sudeikis, is a small-time football coach from Kansas who is hired to coach a professional soccer team in England, despite having no experience coaching soccer. The series has won several major awards since it debuted in 2020, with its overall positive tone proving especially comforting during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Given how immensely popular Ted Lasso is, its long-rumored fourth season apparently being confirmed is a huge win for Apple TV+.

I was barely hanging on at end of season 2 - season 3 lose me after the first 2 episodes. They had a really good funny storyline and tried to stretch it and stretch it and stretch it so what can they possibly do for season four? IMHO YMMV.

I for one love it when a show with a well-defined end that wraps up everyone's story nicely changes it's mind and then has to scramble to undo everything

‘Allegedly’ and ‘confirmed’ do not belong in the same sentence.

It’s been noted that several major characters haven’t renewed their contracts, so is this a spin-off, perhaps?

I SOOOOO hope this is true and gets confirmed. One of the best shows Apple has had yet, and if true i hope the whole cast returns.

Bad Monkey has been fantastic also, which I am shocked how good this has been.
