Summary

• The chances of Ted Lasso season 4 look grim after a pre-order listing for a complete series boxset.
• The finale sets up spinoff possibilities like AFC Richmond without Sudeikis or a women's soccer team-centered series.
• Apple TV+ may be preparing to continue Ted Lasso without Sudeikis, leading to uncertainty about its future.

The chances of Ted Lasso season 4 look grim after an unexpected update. The next chapter of the Emmy-winning sports comedy remains an open question, almost a year after the Ted Lasso season 3 finale debuted on Apple TV+. There's been no official announcement of a renewal, though cast members and others have at times teased the possibility.

Now, as noted by Comicbook.com, there is a pre-order listing for a Ted Lasso: The Complete Series Blu-ray on Amazon. The listing for the item, which costs $84.99, is also available in DVD format and is scheduled to be released on July 30, 2024. Although it's relatively rare on its own for a streaming show to be released on physical media, and no artwork for the box set has been revealed, it could be potentially noteworthy that it is labeled as a complete series, as it suggests that there won't be a Ted Lasso season 4.

Amazon's Pre-Order Listing For Ted Lasso: The Complete Series Blu-ray Has Been Removed.

The pre-order for a Ted Lasso: The Complete Series Blu-ray is no longer available on the Amazon site. It's unclear whether the pre-order purchase will be available again in the future or whether there will be updates to the Blu-ray set.

Are Ted Lasso Spinoffs Possible?

The Finale Sets Up Several Possibilities.

The clearest path might be to continue the story of AFC Richmond, the central football team, without Sudeikis in the lead role.

Before it signs off, the season 3 finale sets up room for several potential spinoffs. The clearest path might be to continue the story of AFC Richmond, the central football team, without Sudeikis in the lead role. Another possibility is a spinoff focused on a women's soccer team, with the leads being Keeley (Juno Temple) and Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham). Alternatively, there could even be a prequel focused on the career of Roy Kent (Brett Goldstein), with some ties to the present day and future.

Another element that adds to the confusion over the show's future is Sudeikis himself, who portrayed the titular Ted Lasso character. While promoting the show's third installment, he mentioned that Ted's arc is over and that the spotlight can turn to the overall ensemble. But in recent months, an update suggested that the actor misses the role and could be open to returning in some capacity.

It seems unlikely that Apple TV+ would allow Ted Lasso, its biggest success, to conclude without a follow-up. But according to an official physical media release, the sports dramedy may indeed be over even without an official announcement. Looking ahead, the question may be more about how the story can continue without its most recognizable name.

All episodes of Ted Lasso are on Apple TV+
