Apple TV+’s ‘Ted Lasso’ will probably only run three seasons

According to comicbook.com, Apple TV+’s hit comedy, “Ted Lasso,” will end after season three. Apple has renewed the series for a third season even though season two has yet to debut. 

In “Ted Lasso,” Jason Sudeikis plays Ted Lasso, a small-time college football coach from Kansas hired to coach a professional soccer team in England, despite having no experience coaching soccer. In addition to starring, Sudeikis serves as executive producer, alongside Bill Lawrence (“Scrubs”) via his Doozer Productions, in association with Warner Bros. Television and Universal Television, a division of NBCUniversal Content. Doozer’s Jeff Ingold also serves as an executive producer with Liza Katzer as co-executive producer. The series was developed by Sudeikis, Lawrence, Joe Kelly and Brendan Hunt, and is based on the pre-existing format and characters from NBC Sports.

Why will it end after two more seasons? According to comicbook.com, “Sudeikis has a family, and likely will not want to be spending half his years an ocean apart from his kids.” Also, Lawrence says that, as it’s mapped out, “Ted Lasso” is a three-season show.
