By Felo News Desk · Published
Apple TV+ has not yet announced a renewal for a fifth season of the Emmy‑winning comedy Ted Lasso, according to Decider’s coverage on October 13, 2026.
What happened
The series concluded its fourth season on October 7, 2026 with episode 10, titled “Being Alive.” The finale tied up several storylines – Mae Green’s death, Roy Kent’s new head‑coach role at Chelsea and his impending child with Keeley – while leaving the door open for future episodes. No episode 11 was released, and the platform did not issue a renewal statement as of October 13.
What the reports add
Decider notes that the show’s “Season Finale” label, rather than “Series Finale,” suggests the network may consider more seasons. The outlet also reports that Jason Sudeikis told The Hollywood Reporter he envisioned the series continuing for three more seasons beyond the fourth, and that Brendan Hunt confirmed the writers’ room has not reconvened for new scripts. Hunt’s comments were relayed by Decider, which quoted him as saying he “certainly hope[s] Season 5 happens” but has heard nothing official.
What was said
When Decider spoke with actress Tanya Reynolds, she said, “We have no idea. There’s obviously so much potential, so many possibilities… We’d be so interested in a flashback to our Arsenal days.” Reynolds added that she hopes for a flashback that would resolve lingering plot threads. Decider also cited a comment from actor Abbie Hern, who expressed similar optimism for a fifth season, though no direct quotation was provided.
How it came about
The fourth‑season finale left several narrative threads open, including the future of the Lady Greyhounds and the fate of the AFC Richmond women’s team now led by Alice Chilton. Earlier Felo News coverage highlighted the series’ tribute to the late Anthony Head and the emotional impact of Mae Green’s death, underscoring the show’s ongoing fan interest and critical acclaim, which fuel speculation about further seasons.
