‘Ted Lasso’ Season 4 Episode 5 Release Date and Time

The Lady Greyhounds are back on the pitch, and fans are counting down the hours until ‘Ted Lasso‘ delivers its next chapter. Season 4 has already proven itself a ratings juggernaut, and episode five is shaping up to be another milestone moment for AFC Richmond’s new women’s squad.

With Jason Sudeikis back in his tracksuit and whistle, the show’s revival keeps building momentum week after week. Here is everything currently known about when and where to catch the newest installment.

‘Ted Lasso’ Season 4 Episode 5 Release Date and Time

‘Ted Lasso’ Season 4 continues its steady weekly rollout, and episode five is officially scheduled to arrive on September 2, 2026. That places it firmly within the pattern the show has followed since its August return, with a new chapter dropping every single week without exception.

New episodes typically become available a little earlier than their official date suggests. Apple TV has stuck with a rollout where episodes actually land the night before the listed release, with the previous episode reportedly hitting the platform around 9 p.m. ET, or 6 p.m. PT, the evening prior. That means eager fans on the West Coast or in the U.S. more broadly can often start streaming before the calendar technically flips.

For viewers outside the United States, the timing works out to Wednesday morning across much of Europe and Asia, since the West Coast midnight release effectively becomes the following day elsewhere. This has become something of a running joke among fans who stay up late just to avoid spoilers circulating online.

Season 4 in total will run for ten episodes, wrapping up on October 7, 2026, so episode five lands roughly at the season’s midpoint, a natural spot for storylines to start converging.

‘Ted Lasso’ Season 4 Streaming Details and Where to Watch

‘Ted Lasso’ remains an Apple TV exclusive, meaning there is no legal way to catch new episodes anywhere else the week they drop. The streamer offers a seven day free trial for new subscribers, and timing that trial correctly could theoretically let a patient binge watcher catch up on the whole season without paying a cent.

For those without a trial window left, Apple TV subscriptions start at 12.99 dollars a month in the United States, with regional pricing varying elsewhere including roughly 14.99 Canadian dollars in Canada and 9.99 pounds in the United Kingdom. Many new Apple hardware purchases also come bundled with a few free months of the service, which has helped some fans stumble into the show accidentally.

There is no indication that ‘Ted Lasso’ Season 4 will be simulcast or day and date released on any other platform. Apple has kept the series as one of its flagship original productions since the very beginning, and that exclusivity does not appear to be changing for this comeback season.

What Happens Next for The Richmond Women’s Football Club?

Season 4 has repositioned the entire show around a new premise, with Ted returning to England specifically to coach the Richmond Lady Greyhounds rather than the men’s side fans spent three seasons following. The earlier episodes established the rocky beginnings of that team, including tryouts to fill out the roster and shareholders who were openly skeptical about funding a women’s club at all.

By episode four, the narrative had shifted toward the coaching staff working out how to break up cliques forming within the new locker room, a classic ‘Ted Lasso’ setup that blends sports drama with the show’s trademark warmth. Episode five appears positioned to keep pushing that team building arc forward as the Greyhounds inch closer to their first real test as a unit.

Familiar faces including Hannah Waddingham as Rebecca Welton, Juno Temple as Keeley Jones, Brett Goldstein as Roy Kent, and Jeremy Swift as Leslie Higgins remain part of the ensemble, alongside newcomers like Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, and Grant Feely, who has stepped into the role of Henry Lasso with an expanded presence this season.

Critics have responded warmly to the revival so far, and the season premiere reportedly became the most watched debut in the platform’s history, a sign that audience appetite for Ted’s optimism has not faded during the three year gap.

Looking Ahead in the ‘Ted Lasso’ Season 4 Schedule

With five episodes remaining after this one, ‘Ted Lasso’ still has plenty of runway to develop its new characters while paying off threads left dangling since Roy Kent took charge of the men’s team and Keeley first pitched the idea of a women’s club to Rebecca. The back half of the season, running through the October 7 finale, is expected to bring those storylines to a head.

Fans have already speculated about which original cast members might make surprise appearances as the season progresses, and the show’s writers have left plenty of room for callbacks given how deeply Season 3 tied up loose ends before this unexpected return.

For now, all eyes are on September 2 as the next checkpoint in Richmond’s journey, with the Lady Greyhounds’ story only just getting started.
