Ted Lasso season four premieres August 5 on Apple TV, moving Ted into a second-division women's football story.

Ted Lasso returns to Apple TV on August 5 for a fourth season that puts the coach on a new kind of touchline. Apple's announcement sends Ted to a second-division women's football team, while the familiar Richmond circle remains part of the show's wider emotional orbit. A new team changes the coaching brief Season four

keeps Ted's optimism intact but changes the problem in front of him. He is not simply trying to rescue one club's confidence; he is helping a women's side build an identity and compete in a different part of the football pyramid. That gives the comedy room to explore leadership, expectation, and the pressure of being

the person everyone thinks can fix a room. The shift also makes the return feel like a continuation rather than a reset. Ted's approach still depends on attention and trust, but a new dressing room means those values have to be earned again. The first episode is therefore both a homecoming and a test of whether the

method travels. The weekly season starts today Apple lists a ten-episode season, with the premiere arriving August 5 and new episodes following weekly through October 7. The official teaser keeps the plot details light, but it confirms the show's familiar mix of football, friendship, and a coach trying to meet people

where they are. Ted Lasso season four is streaming on Apple TV now. The official Apple TV Press announcement and teaser are the best places to check the episode cadence and the latest cast information.
