How Many Episodes Are In Ted Lasso Season 3?

The final episode of "Ted Lasso" will be airing on Wednesday, May 31. We would be a tad bit hasty, however, to think that this will be the absolute last we hear from Ted, Rebecca, Roy, or any of the rest of the AFC Richmond gang. While pretty much everyone has gone into this season under the assumption that it will be the show's last, and Jason Sudeikis has said that this is the end of the story that the writers and producers wanted to tell, others seem to be keeping the door open. 

Warner Bros. Television Group Chairman and CEO Channing Dungey previously told Deadline that viewers will be pleased with the end of Season 3. "But there's also a way to crack open a door," said Dungey. "If we're fortunate enough to do more, we can keep on going."

This is a rather sly way to set up, if not a fourth season of "Ted Lasso," perhaps a spin-off of the show. That's a possibility that Sudeikis himself has also discussed in past interviews. What story such a spin-off would tell, and which characters it would focus on, is an open question. However, the events of Season 3 do seem to be painting Ted as feeling the strain of being away from his son, Henry (Gus Turner). 

Are we going to get to watch the trajectory of a post-Lasso Richmond? At this point, it's impossible to tell, though that won't stop fans from looking for hints in the final handful of episodes.
