After years of speculation about whether Ted Lasso would be back or not, Apple TV+ has confirmed that a fourth season of Ted Lasso is on the way. The show’s third season seemed like it might be a conclusion, but it seems that at least Jason Sudeikis’s central character will be back, although it’s unclear who from the cast of the first three seasons will be joining him.

“Ted Lasso has been nothing short of a juggernaut, inspiring a passionate fan base all over the world, and delivering endless joy and laughter, all while spreading kindness, compassion and unwavering belief,” Matt Cherniss, head of Apple TV+ programming, said in a statement. “Everyone at Apple is thrilled to be continuing our collaboration with Jason and the brilliant creative minds behind this show.”

Jack Burditt, who previously worked on Nobody Wants This and Modern Family, has been brought in to produce the new season. It’s unclear how involved Bill Lawrence, who was one of the show’s original creators, will be in this new incarnation.

Sudeikis hinted that the new season will feature something of a change of pace for the coach on the New Heights podcast. “Ted’s coaching a women’s team, so there, that’s it,” he explained.

There have been rumblings about a potential fourth season for some time, and now that the news has been confirmed, fans will be eager to see what shape this version of Ted Lasso takes.

After first premiere during the pandemic, Ted Lasso went on to become one of Apple TV+’s biggest hits of all time, so it’s not shocking that they decided to bring the show back.

Here’s everything we know about Yellowjackets season 4

The series still has plenty of questions that need answers.

Sophie Nélisse in Yellowjackets season 3

After three seasons, Yellowjackets has come closer to answering many of the core questions viewers have been dying to know. The third season finale brings the girls stranded in the wilderness closer to a rescue, and there are naturally plenty of questions about what a fourth season might focus on.

The show has fallen off of the awards radar, but it's still one of my favorites because of its combination of old-fashioned teen drama and heady sci-fi.

The second season of Max’s trippiest prestige series is now 100% on Rotten Tomatoes

The show is promising to be just as trippy and existential during its second season.

When it first debuted on Max in 2022, nobody really knew what to make of The Rehearsal. The series, which followed Fielder as he helped people "rehearse" for real-life situations so that they could be prepared for all of life's uncertainties, eventually spiraled out into something stranger and more existential as Nathan became a pseudo-patriarch in a fake family.

Although The Rehearsal was undeniably strange, it also earned an overwhelmingly positive response from critics, and it seems the show's second season is no different. The Rehearsal season 2, which is set to premiere on Max on April 20, now has a 100% fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes, which means that it has once again wooed critics.

Reacher season 4: Everything we know so far

Jack Reacher's TV series will be back for a fourth time on Prime Video

Alan Ritchson in Reacher season 3

Reacher is one of Amazon Prime Video's best successes of the decade. Starring Alan Ritchson and based on the books by novelist Lee Child, the adaptation of the beloved action stories has been an affordable, simple, and effective adventure series that people have fallen in love with across the first three seasons. There was a lot of skepticism when the show was first greenlit, especially because the film version with Tom Cruise wasn't as good as fans expected. Instead, Ritchson and the creative team have fantastically absorbed all of the snappy writing from the books and added to it with their own unique flair.

With the third season of the show done airing, fans are looking forward to when the fourth season will come out. We have a bunch of shows like Reacher you can watch in the meantime, but sometimes that doesn't serve as an adequate substitute for the real thing. Fortunately, we have all the answers you need about Reacher season 4 right here.
