Apple’s hit original show ‘Ted Lasso’ has been confirmed to have a third season, but this could be its last. According to an interview with series creator Bill Lawrence, the series might end with the third season of the show.
In a recent episode of the “Fake Doctors, Real Friends” podcast, Lawrence spoke about the show and his role during its creation with hosts Zach Braff and Donald Fassion. During the podcast, Lawrence spoke about how ‘Ted Lasso’ didn’t have the need to surpass the previous seasons like other streaming originals, such as Disney’s The Mandalorian or Netflix’s The Witcher.
I think that ours is a little different because Jason, as he’s kind of mapping it out, it’s a three-season show. So… super-fans know that [The Mandalorian is] connecting tissue in the Star Wars universe, and for us, everybody knows that they get an end to this story in the third season.
“Ted Lasso” is a three-season show. The only way I think a fourth season of Ted Lasso exists would be if TL went and coached a soccer team that played about a block from Jason’s house in real life, you know what I mean? He’s got young kids. Besides being a creative decision.
Lawrence also mentioned that Jason Sudekis’ family commitments were taken into account while writing the show.
For those not familiar with the show, ‘Ted Lasso’ follows the story of an American soccer coach on his way to save a British team while out of his element. This has been one of the biggest hits on Apple TV+, being renewed for a second and third season as soon as the first one ended.
Hopefully, the Apple Originals in store will be as good if not better than ‘Ted Lasso’. Here at Appleosophy we will keep you posted on any news related to “Ted Lasso” and other Apple TV+ Originals.
