Ted Lasso season 4: full episode schedule and when the finale airs
David White
Ted Lasso is back, and season 4 is already most of the way through its run. After three seasons, an armful of Emmys and a finale that felt final, AFC Richmond is mid campaign again. Here is the full episode schedule, so you know which Wednesday you are on and exactly when it ends.
When is the Ted Lasso season 4 finale?
Season 4 premiered on Wednesday 5 August 2026 on Apple TV and runs weekly to a finale on Wednesday 7 October 2026. The premiere date comes straight from Apple’s official announcement, so it is as confirmed as a date gets.
The season opened with a single episode, then one new episode every Wednesday. No binge drop: this is a ten week appointment, and it is into its closing stretch.
The full episode schedule
Apple has confirmed the release pattern, one episode per Wednesday, which gives us these dates:
| Episode | Release date |
|---|---|
| 1 | Wednesday 5 August |
| 2 | Wednesday 12 August |
| 3 | Wednesday 19 August |
| 4 | Wednesday 26 August |
| 5 | Wednesday 2 September |
| 6 | Wednesday 9 September |
| 7 | Wednesday 16 September |
| 8 | Wednesday 23 September |
| 9 | Wednesday 30 September |
| 10 | Wednesday 7 October |
Episode titles have not been announced yet. Episodes typically land at midnight Pacific time, which means early morning in the UK, so Wednesday evening viewing is safe from day one.
Where can you watch Ted Lasso season 4?
Season 4 streams exclusively on Apple TV, the service formerly known as Apple TV+, which is also home to the first three seasons if you need a catch up. There is no other streaming home: if a listing claims Netflix or Prime Video, it is wrong.
You can watch through the Apple TV app on iPhone, iPad, Android, smart TVs, streaming sticks and consoles, or in any browser at tv.apple.com. A standard subscription covers everything, and new subscribers usually get a seven day free trial, enough to sample the premiere before committing.
What is season 4 about?
The confirmed premise: Ted returns to Richmond to take on his biggest challenge yet, coaching a second division women’s football team. It is a clean reset that keeps the club, keeps the cast, and gives the show a whole new squad to build.
Who is coming back?
Jason Sudeikis returns as Ted, alongside Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt and Jeremy Swift. New cast members include Tanya Reynolds, Faye Marsay, Jude Mack, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, Abbie Hern and Grant Feely, several of whom are expected to make up the new women’s squad.
How to make sure you do not miss an episode
A ten week weekly release is exactly the kind of schedule people fall off. The first two Wednesdays are easy. Then life happens, you miss week five, spoilers start leaking out of group chats, and the finale gets ruined by a meme.
The fix is boring and effective: use a tracker that pings you on air day. Follow Ted Lasso in TrackShows, switch on notifications, and you get one push each Wednesday a new episode is out. No marketing, no engagement nudges, just the air date. There is more on how that works on the features page, and a comparison of the other ways to solve it in our guide to getting notified when new episodes air.
Ten Wednesdays, one team, believe.
