Ted Lasso returns at an important time for Apple TV

Ted Lasso is returning for a fourth season on Apple TV. The show's new season serves as both a continuation and a soft reboot, introducing new characters while retaining familiar ones.

The new season picks up three years after the events of the previous season.

However, a visit from old friends, including Rebecca Welton and Keeley Jones, prompts Ted to reconsider his life choices, as reported by TechRadar.

In the fourth season, Ted returns to Richmond to coach the women's football team. The season will consist of 10 episodes, airing through October 7, 2026, and is expected to be the first of a new three-season run, as stated by 9to5Mac. The show features a mix of returning and new cast members, including Tanya Reynolds.
