Apple:

Following its breakout first season and early second season renewal, Apple TV+ has renewed “Ted Lasso” for a third season, ahead of its second season start of production in London early January. Since its premiere on August 14, 2020, critics and fans globally have hailed the series as “terrific,” “hilarious,” “heart-swelling” and “infectious.”

Burying the lede a bit: Second season production starts in January.

Some history:

• The show was commissioned by Apple in October 2019 (one year ago)
• Episode 1 premiered on August 14th, 2020 (ten months later)

Will season 2 drop in August? That’s only seven months after start of production. But given how much has been done (sets built, etc.), seems possible. Absolutely looking forward to season 2. Great show.
