Brendan Hunt, Jason Sudeikis, and Brett Goldstein as Richmond coaches Beard, Ted and Roy.Colin Hutton/Apple Ted Lasso had a bit of a bumpy third season, and its final episode (now streaming on Apple TV+) didn't undo all of those bumps.Nevertheless, the show pulled off some very nice moments that doubtless reminded viewers why they fell in love with it in the first place.

Until the strike, Haley Boston (left) had been developing a horror show for Netflix called Something Very Bad is Going to Happen.Now, she's hoping something very good comes out of their protests.Augustus Schiff and Sam Freedman stand to her right.Mandalit del Barco/NPR News TV and film writers are on their second week of striking against major Hollywood studios.

Jason Sudeikis in Ted Lasso.Apple TV+ How you feel about the latest and possibly last season of Apple TV+'s hit comedy Ted Lasso, likely depends on how you feel about the characters in Ted Lasso.That's because star/co-creator/executive producer Jason Sudeikis and his crew spend a lot of time this season savoring the quirky, familial vibe of the show's signature personalities serving up longer episodes at 43-50 minutes each, creating more complex storylines and cooking up new characters who have their own unique stories going on.

Nobody who has watched can get the theme song out of their head.The Marcus Mumford and Tom Howe-penned track almost certainly has something to do with the massive success of the show.That opening yeahhahh is such a perfect hook, a combination of Beatles and Creedence Clearwater Revival influences.In 2021, Mumford said the goal was to create something that "feel[s] somewhere halfway between London and Kansas, where Ted's from."

With Apple TV+ continuing to enlist many A-list talents both in front of and behind the camera, it's no wonder Oscar nominee Timothée Chalamet is pleading to be a part of it.To create a bit of buzz around Apple TV+'s star-studded content, the brand tapped Chalamet for its latest brand campaign, "Call Me." Made in collaboration with creative agency TBWA\Media Arts Lab, the humorous spot highlights the platform's original streaming content in a follow-up to last year's "Everyone but Jon Hamm."

"Call Me" follows Chalamet as he goes about his life at home, at a crowded press conference and on set for a photoshoot, all while fantasizing about Apple TV+'s various projects.
