Ted Lasso season 3 episode 12: Will we see Ted in America?
Throughout the series, we have seen Jason Sudeikis and the bulk of the writing / producing team put a lot of fun little personal touches into the show. Perhaps one of the biggest, though, is simply the fact that through the entirety of the show, the title character has never been seen in America. The first we see him in the pilot is on his flight over to the UK. Even though he does see and spend time with his son, this show focuses entirely on during AFC Richmond’s season. There has been a concentrated effort to never focus on him back in Kansas.

So is that going to change during the finale? Well, it is easy to predict at this point that Ted is going to quit Richmond during “So Long, Farewell” and with that, head back home to be a father. It would be a bold choice to actually show him there at the end, mostly because the first three seasons have been about him trying to create literal and figurative distance between parts of his old life.
However, you can also argue that the story of Ted Lasso is really about his own fish out of water tale. You could say that the final moments of the finale are him on the plane ride back home. Maybe we see the same over-the-top guy who told Ted how “stupid” he was for taking the Richmond job in the first place.
We don’t think the potential end to this season (and possibly the series) is going to be a surprise to anyone. The only real mystery is how everything comes about around this central event.
