Ted Lasso season 4: Everything you need to know about Apple TV+ show
While it's been a couple of years since we've heard from Ted and the gang, many people are naturally wondering what might be different about this new season and when we'll get a chance to see it. Here's everything you need to know about the new season based on what's out there now.
Is there definitely a new season of Ted Lasso?
Although it was only a rumor for a long time, we now know for sure that Ted Lasso will be back for a fourth season. On July 21, Apple TV+ announced that production on the show had begun. The production also shared our first look at season 4, an image of Jeremy Swift (Leslie Higgins), Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca Welton), Juno Temple (Keeley Jones), and Jason Sudeikis's Ted Lasso sitting at what looks like an American diner.

In March, Apple announced that the show would return after months of speculation.
'As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to 'look before we leap,'' Sudeikis said in a press release at the time. 'In season four, the folks at AFC Richmond learn to 'leap before they look,' discovering that wherever they land, it's exactly where they're meant to be.'
What seems clear, though, is that Sudeikis and the rest of the creative team behind the show were unsure whether the show would be back after season 3. Part of the reason it took so long to get a season 4 is that this show is a little bit of a soft reboot. It's technically season 4, but the show now has a new premise, and not all of the cast from the first three seasons will be back.
Who is in the cast for Ted Lasso season 4?
In addition to the four cast members who appear in the image, we know that Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent) and Brendan Hunt (Coach Beard) will return for the new season. Apple also announced that Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsey, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, and Abbie Hern will all be joining the show in roles that have yet to be disclosed. Grant Feely is also replacing Gus Turner as Ted's son.
Where will the new season take place?
Through its first three seasons, Ted Lasso took place entirely in the U.K., but it seems the show is shifting gears, at least to some extent, for season 4. Filming commenced in Kansas City, Missouri, which is Sudeikis's hometown and also happens to be Ted's. The production did clarify, though, that some additional photography would take place in London, so it seems the show is not abandoning its U.K. setting completely.
As you might remember, Ted returned home to coach his son's soccer team at the end of season 3, and it seems season 4 will pick up with Ted back in Kansas City.
What will the plot of season 4 be?
According to a synopsis for the new season, Ted will be returning to the United Kingdom yet again, and this time, he'll be coaching a women's soccer team.
'Ted returns to Richmond, taking on his biggest challenge yet: coaching a second division women's football team,' the show's synopsis explains. 'Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would.'
It would seem that this is the team that Keeley proposed to Rebecca at the end of the show's third season.
When is the release date for Ted Lasso season 4?
We don't yet know when Ted Lasso will debut, but given that the show has just started filming, it likely won't be on the air until 2026 at the earliest. That would be three years after the last season, which is a long time, but not unprecedented in the era of streaming television. Still, this is a slightly unusual situation because of the uncertainty after season 3. In the end, the show's popularity was too great to ignore.
Is there a trailer for Ted Lasso season 4 yet?
Given that production on the season just started, we don't yet have a trailer for the new season. It will likely be several months before we get anything besides images from the set, because Apple won't want to produce a trailer until there's plenty of footage to choose from.
In place of a trailer, Apple released a brief clip of Ted, Keely, Rebecca, and Higgins eating at a booth to announce the start of production on season 4.

‘The Simpsons' Upcoming Guests Include Kieran Culkin, Viola Davis, Idris Elba; Matt Groening on How to Liberate Parents from MAGA: ‘Delete Fox News'
Kieran Culkin ('Succession'), Glenn Howerton ('It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia'), Albert Brooks and Cole Escola ('Oh Mary') are among the guest stars stopping by Springfield during the upcoming Season 37 of 'The Simpsons,' the show's producers announced Saturday at San Diego Comic-Con. Also Danny Pudi ('Community'), Adam Pally, Brendan and Domhall Gleeson, together at last! More from Variety 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Teases Puppet Episode for Season 4 'Futurama' Cast, Producers Joke About Their Frequent Cancellations, Tease Upcoming Guests and Storylines 'Bob's Burgers' Reveals Landmark 300th Episode Details, Plus New Halloween and Christmas Installments Also during the panel, 'Simpsons' producers shared a sneak preview of one of this year's 'Treehouse of Horror' Halloween segments. Idris Elba, Michael Keaton and Viola Davis will be guest starring on that episode, which will feature an opening from guest animator Stan Kelly (from The Onion). Among those on stage: creator Matt Groening, executive producers Matt Selman and Mike Price, director Matt Faughnan and consulting producer/director David Silverman. 'I honestly thought 36 was where we were going to end it,' Groening joked. 'No, there's no end in sight. We're going to keep going. We're going to go until somebody dies. When you know who dies, the Simpsons predicts the there will be dancing in the streets. Except President Vance will ban dancing.' What's coming up next is the show's landmark 800th episode, which will air on Fox in February 2026. 'It's a big deal to do 800 shows, and so we're going to be doing two brand new original episodes that night,' Selman said. 'They're top secret for now, but I promise you, they'll be the best 800th episode of anything you've ever seen.' After the recent 'Coldplay' incident, in which the Astronomer CEO and its HR head were caught in a tryst, a deep fake claimed that 'The Simpsons' predicted it. Selman warned fans not to fall for these 'Simpsons predicts the future' memes. 'Who could be so dumb?' he said. 'Of all our 800 episodes we did, that those two dumb white folks — I don't what to call, the takes are done — like, who could think, who has such little reactive intelligence that this is in 'The Simpsons'? And of course, the answer is hundreds and hundreds of millions of people! But when you see something that claims to be a 'Simpsons' prediction, just think for one second. Could that have possibly been on the show? That's all, just think one second and then comment on the thing 'they are magic, they're wizards, they did it again.' Groening joking said he had the counterpoint: 'We are time travelers.' Here were some of his upcoming predictions: ''The Simpsons' predicts Elon Musk will be the first man to land on Mars. Amazingly, he will crash land on Mars. But he will radio back that he is marooned there forever. And most emotionally of all, he will be able to hear the cheering all the way.' Also: 'America will return the Statue of Liberty to France and North America remembers what the word Liberty means.' And most importantly: ''The Simpsons' predicts kids across America will liberate their Republican parents from the cult of MAGA. And here's how you do it. Grab the TV remote, go to menu, go to controls, vertical controls, look for channel list and delete Fox News.' As part of the event, the 'Simpsons' team attempted to play a game that Selman dubbed 'Simpsons Comic-Con Pictionary,' but the technology was not cooperating. Nonetheless, during that segment, guest animators/writers Michael Cusack ('Smiling Friends') and Mike McMahan ('Solar Opposites') came on stage to also talk and ask about 'The Simpsons.' And of course, addressed was the recent surprising uptick in online hot takes about Marge Simpson dying in the show's Season 36 finale. As Selman recently told Variety, she had done no such thing and that what happened in the recent season finale of the series was not canon, since 'there is no canon,' he said at the time. ''The Simpsons' doesn't even have canon!' 'She's like in every episode,' Selman said at the panel. 'There's a new economy of headlines that try to trick you. I call it 'trick bait.' The million headlines saying 'Simpsons' kills Marge, and then even those articles admit it, of course, 'they didn't do we just wanted you to read our headline.' So again, just a little ounce of thinking after you read something make your lives a little better.'

CC Sabathia and his family have a bumpy ride to Cooperstown
COOPERSTOWN, NY (AP) — For CC Sabathia, getting elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame was much easier than actually getting to the Hall of Fame. Sabathia, whose career spanned 19 seasons with the Cleveland Indians, Milwaukee Brewers and New York Yankees, was voted in on his first year of eligibility. Getting to Cooperstown for Hall of Fame weekend activities to be capped by his induction Sunday proved a tad more difficult. 'It was an adventure,' Sabathia said Saturday. Sabathia, wife Amber and their four children left their Alpine, New Jersey, home at about 4 p.m. Thursday. They traveled in two vehicles as is their family custom and were about 75 miles (120 kilometers) into their 177-mile trip when things got interesting. 'We stopped to get food. Everything's going great,' Sabathia said. 'We tried to get on the on-ramp on (Route) 17 and the car just stopped. I was behind her (Amber). Most of the time when we're driving, I'm gone. I'm never driving behind her, but for some reason I was taking my time riding behind her.' Sabathia had a clear view of what was happening. They called for assistance. The family piled into Sabathia's car and returned home to grab another vehicle as a tow truck towed their broken-down Escalade back to Alpine. The Sabathias arrived in Cooperstown at about midnight. What should have been a drive of about three hours became an eight-hour journey. 'It was pretty funny. I was taking pictures. My kids were doing TikToks and Amber was in the back like the super serious person she is getting everything done,' Sabathia said. 'People were honking at us and recognizing us on the side of the road. It was fun for us. 'For her it was a nightmare.' The Sabathias, including Amber, will certainly be all smiles Sunday. ___ AP MLB:

Woman Says Her Husband Made a ‘Strange' Comment to Her Female Friend — But He Says She's ‘Reading' into It ‘Too Much'
"He says I'm reading too much into it and he was just trying to be friendly as he could see my friend was upset," the woman said of her husband A woman is unsure if she's overreacting after her husband made a 'strange' comment to her female friend. In a post on Mumsnet's 'Am I Being Unreasonable?' forum, the woman explained that she recently had her best friend over for dinner while her husband was out with friends. 'My friend had been upset while talking with me about some relationship issues, one of which related to trying for a child,' the woman said, adding that the friend's husband often says he is too 'tired' from work to try to conceive. The original poster (OP) said that her own husband then came home and that it was 'clear that my friend had been crying.' She said her husband asked the friend what was wrong, and she explained that she 'was upset about not being pregnant yet, and that her [husband] was often giving reasons not to try.' The OP said that this was when her husband made the questionable comment. She recalled that he told her friend something along the lines of, '[Your husband] must be crazy,' and that he was 'surprised' that the other man wasn't taking the opportunity to have lots of 'fun' with her. 'This might be my insecurity, but I don't think [my husband] should have said what he did,' the OP said. 'I have spoken to him, and he says I'm reading too much into it and he was just trying to be friendly as he could see my friend was upset." In a follow-up comment, the woman said that the most recent comment came after a past incident in which her husband once asked her to wear an outfit that he saw the same friend wearing, as it would 'really turn him on.' 'He was drunk and apologized profusely in the following days. But it did make me think he finds my friend attractive,' she added. 'Now I don't know if I'm overreacting,' the woman confessed. The OP's post sparked a debate among her fellow Mumsnet users. Some commenters said they felt the comment was relatively innocuous and that she should try not to overthink it. 'I think he just didn't know what to say and felt awkward when he walked into [the conversation], so he made a light-hearted comment about it [...]. He was probably trying to make her feel better or make her smile. Yeah, it probably was a bit inappropriate, but I doubt he meant any harm by it,' one person said. 'Your [husband] was probably embarrassed to be faced with a tearful woman and gave a clumsy reply. I wouldn't be upset. Sounds like her [husband] is an a--, and your [husband] was trying to make her feel better,' another wrote. Other commenters, however, said that they thought what the husband said crossed a line. 'Inappropriate and icky,' said one person. 'He's 100% got a crush on your friend,' added someone else. A third person said, 'You're right, he massively overstepped. And considering he already told you you should dress like your friend as it turned him on, he definitely fancies her.' Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword
