Another impressive year. After the sports comedy-drama Ted Lasso won seven Emmy Awards in 2021 including Outstanding Comedy Series, the AppleTV+ program has proven itself again in 2022 with a total of 20 nominations.
Jason Sudeikis, who plays the optimistic titular character, won his first Emmy last year for his performance.
“This show is about family. This show is about mentors and teachers. This show is about teammates, and I wouldn’t be here without those three things in my life,” he said while accepting the accolade in September 2021.
The 46-year-old Saturday Night Live alum, who also helped develop the series, has been clear about the fact that he never planned for more than three seasons.
“The story that’s being told — that three-season arc — is one that I see, know and understood. I’m glad that they are willing to pay for those three seasons. As far as what happens after that, who knows? I don’t know,” he told Entertainment Weekly in June 2021. Filming for season 3 has already begun but a release date has yet to be announced.
Sudeikis is nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor again this Emmy season, but he’s not the only Ted Lasso performer to receive critical acclaim. Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca Welton) and Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent) earned their own golden statues in 2021 and are both up for the Outstanding Supporter Actress and Actor prizes again this time around.
In a July 2021 interview with Elle, Waddingham, 48, spoke about the Ted Lasso creators, including Sudeikis, allowing her to rework her lines when appropriate.
“Jason has been quite vocal about it in interviews — he says that we now know the characters better than they do, which is a huge compliment,” she told the outlet.
Goldstein, for his part, has been candid

On paper, there were no major surprises at the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards as all the winners were either considered clear front-runners or runners-up on most prediction lists. Still, the dominant showing for Apple TV+’s Ted Lasso probably qualifies as a surprise.
The future of Ted Lasso beyond season 3 has become a big source of speculation — at least among TV reporters. But Jason Sudeikis is not ready to say if they’re coming back for another year, no matter how happy he is that his Apple TV show just won another Emmy for Outstanding Comedy.

The 2022 Emmys ended up being a middle-of-the-road show — nothing terribly controversial happened (no, nobody slapped anyone).
