The Emmy-winning Apple TV comedy “Ted Lasso,” starring Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, and Brett Goldstein is set to debut Season 3 on March 15. The show, about an upbeat American football coach put in charge of an English soccer team, has won fans on both sides of the Atlantic for its interesting characters and unexpected story arcs. The show’s creators have long maintained it would likely be a three-season show, but whether this will be the final season has not yet been confirmed.

“Lucky Hank” is an eight-episode mid-life crisis tale set in the Pennsylvania Rust Belt. The series, debuting on March 19 on AMC+, stars Bob Odenkirk (“Better Call Saul”), as the chairman of the English department at a mediocre college. Rather than cater to his students’ expectations, the professor says exactly what he feels — stunning everyone.
