Sudeikis compares Ted Lasso's second season to Star Wars sequel The Empire Strikes Back because he says the characters have to face their own issues rather than fight against external forces. In fact, fellow co-creator Bill Lawrence envisioned Ted Lasso as a three-season series, using the original Star Wars trilogy as a template. “The cool thing for this particular show, because we did that, is that we knew every character’s journey — beginning, middle and end — for all three seasons,” Lawrence says. “We’re not gonna suddenly shift gears and add more middle to this three-season story of the team of Richmond and the characters involved.”
