The global hit series Ted Lasso continues its highly anticipated fourth season this week. Apple TV has confirmed that the fifth episode of the season, titled Ted Lasso Season 4 Episode 405: ‘Riches of Embarrassment’, is set to make its global debut on Wednesday, September 2, 2026. Fans can look forward to new episodes arriving every Wednesday through October 7.
In this latest installment, the stakes remain high for the Richmond squad. The team is set to face off against Chelsea, while Alice finds herself under increasing pressure. Meanwhile, Rebecca continues to navigate a complicated dynamic, adding another layer of intrigue to the ongoing narrative. This season has seen Ted, played by Jason Sudeikis, return to Richmond to take on the challenge of coaching a second division women’s football team, a shift that has forced both him and the players to take risks they never previously considered.
The return of this beloved series has been a significant event for television audiences. Since its initial debut, the show has broken records and earned widespread critical acclaim, including back-to-back Emmy Awards for Outstanding Comedy Series for its first two seasons. The current season continues to build on that foundation, blending the show’s signature heart with new character dynamics and professional hurdles.
A Growing Cast and Creative Team

Season four features the return of several fan favorites, including Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, and Jeremy Swift. The ensemble is bolstered by new additions to the cast, such as Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, Abbie Hern, and Grant Feely. The creative team has also expanded, with Emmy Award-winner Jack Burditt joining as an executive producer.
The series was developed by Sudeikis, Bill Lawrence, Joe Kelly, and Hunt, based on the preexisting format and characters from NBC Sports. It is produced by Doozer Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television and Universal Television. With the season now in full swing, the narrative trajectory suggests that the team will continue to face both internal and external pressures as they strive for success on the pitch.
