FIRST TEASER WITH JASON SUDEIKIS, BRETT GOLDSTEIN AND HANNAH WADDINGHAM IN THE BRAND NEW FOURTH SEASON OF TED LASSO COMEDY SERIES

   TED LASSO SERIES  

FIRST TEASER FROM SEASON FOUR

Although we all thought it finished for good after the rather lukewarm third season which gave an impression of the writers being quite lost in their efforts, Apple TV has decided to bring their most popular comedy series back and we can expect TED LASSO to return with the fourth season August 5th and we have the first teaser as well. The main catch: this time: Jason Sudeikis, who is back as Ted, is back to help the Richmond soccer club owner Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham) training an all female football team! Brett Goldstein as Roy and the rest of the old crew should be all back when the new season returns this summer three years after the series ended. Jack Burditt (Modern Family, 30 Rock) has been added to the creative team as a new producer. In the new season, our beloved coach leaves behind the players he'd won over to his side, and turns his attention to Richmond's women's team. The change represents his biggest challenge yet as he again hopes to turn around their fortunes, lifting them out of the second division and propelling them towards glory. Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would. His son, Henry (Grant Feely) is also back, now much older, and so are Jeremy Swift (as Leslie Higgins) and Juno Temple (as Keeley Jones).

Jack Burditt (Modern Family, 30 Rock) has been added to the creative team as a new producer. In the new season, our beloved coach leaves behind the players he'd won over to his side, and turns his attention to Richmond's women's team.

  MICHELLE YEOH IS CAPTAIN  

IN 'STAR TREK: DISCOVERY'

Great news, people, after a very long wait we finally have the first name in the cast for new STAR TREK: DISCOVERY TV series which will air at CBS next spring and through Netflix around the world! Michelle Yeoh has been announced by one of the show's producers as the new captain!

Sadly, it won't be the lead role since this series will have a female starship lieutenant commander of colour as the protagonist thus marking it as the first of the STAR TREK series that won't have their lead star commanding the ship! Michelle Yeoh will apparently have a reoccurring role as a character named Han Bo a captain of another ship named the Shenzhou and should have an important role in the first season which won't have individual stories in each episode but will follow a longer storyline set ten years before the original series when Star Federation was first venturing into the unknown space.  If the rumours are right DISCOVERY will also have a male British doctor aboard and at least one gay character!

'TIMELESS' SF SERIES

Another series to lend a series order at NBC is TIMELESS starring Matt Lanter.  In the sf series a mysterious criminal steals a secret state-of-the-art time machine, intent on destroying America by changing the past.
