The New Ted Lasso Episode You Probably Don't Know About
The popular Apple TV+ comedy, "Ted Lasso," follows its titular character (Jason Sudeikis), an American football coach who becomes the manager of an English Premier League soccer team, AFC Richmond, despite having no experience in the sport. The owner of the team, Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham), hires Ted hoping that he'll fail as part of an act of revenge against the team's previous owner, her ex-husband who cheated on her. Despite Rebecca's intentions, however, Ted manages to successfully take over the team.
The first two seasons of "Ted Lasso" have been met with widespread critical acclaim, and several of its cast members — Sudeikis, Waddingham, and Brett Goldstein — have won Emmys for their performances in it (via IMDb). The show's second season wrapped up in October, with "Ted Lasso" Season 3 currently in development.
There's no doubt that fans are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the series' third season, which likely won't premiere until sometime in 2022. In the meantime, Apple TV+ has released a brand new, holiday-themed "Ted Lasso" short.
