'Ted Lasso' Star Nick Mohammed on Nate's Season 4 Future: ‘We'll Have to See'
Fans of the popular show Ted Lasso have gone on many emotional roller coaster rides with various cast members over the years. However, one significant name who went from an AFC Richmond hero to one of the team's biggest rivals is Nate Shelley. Shelley, played by Nick Mohammed, earned the nickname "The Wonder Kid" after his quick rise from the team's kitman to assistant coach. However, Mohammed's character turned on Lasso, played by Jason Sudeikis, and ultimately became the head coach of West Ham, a team owned by AFC Richmond owner Rebecca Welton's ex-husband. While the on-field rivalry between Shelley and Sudeikis was a primary storyline in Season 3 of Ted Lasso, the young coach realized there's no place like home. That season's finale featured Shelley returning to Richmond, accepting a job as the assistant kitman. After how things transpired with Shelley's character, his status for Season 4 was up in the air. The Ted Lasso creators have kept much of the casting under wraps thus far, including a potential role for Shelley. Mohammed was asked if his character would return in Season 4 during an interview with The Associated Press, and he remained cryptic about Nate's future. "Who knows if Nate's still there, we'll have to see," Mohammed said with a smile. "Because, you know he's a great football coach who will probably have gone further afield by this point." While Mohammed's comments didn't give anything away, his body language and smile throughout the conversation may have been a telling sign. Considering Nate winds up back with AFC Richmond, it wouldn't be hard to put him back at the center of the show's storyline alongside the rest of the coaching staff.'Ted Lasso' Star Nick Mohammed on Nate's Season 4 Future: 'We'll Have to See' first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 12, 2025

'Ted Lasso' Fan Favorite Brett Goldstein Calls Season 4 Announcement a ‘Relief'
Brett Goldstein has emerged as one of the many beloved characters in the Apple TV+ hit series Ted Lasso. He portrays the popular player-turned-coach Roy Kent, who has a gritty personality and doesn't love small talk. It seems Goldstein's disinterest in small talk during the show may translate to real life in some ways, specifically when it comes to being asked questions about Ted Lasso's future From the sound of it, Goldstein didn't exactly love fielding the constant questions on the topic of whether Ted Lasso would even return for a Season 4, before the news was officially revealed. He made that much known during a recent interview with Variety. When the topic of Goldstein no longer having to address the questions about the show's future when they arose, it sounds like they were tougher on him than the current queries he gets. "That is such a relief," Goldstein said of no longer having to answer questions about the show's future. Goldstein, who plays Louis on the hit show Shrinking, is also an executive producer and writer for the show. While he's in the same boat as the rest of the Ted Lasso cast, having to remain tight-lipped on Season 4, he did call it "exciting" to be back with the rest of the show's actors. "Obviously, I can't tell you a single thing about it, of course, but we're working on it, and it's good," he says. "It's exciting to have everyone back together." One thing fans can rejoice in is the fact that they'll be treated to more of Roy Kent in the upcoming season. Unfortunately, no specific release date has been set, but filming was slated to begin mid-July.'Ted Lasso' Fan Favorite Brett Goldstein Calls Season 4 Announcement a 'Relief' first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 18, 2025

How to watch this weekend's Mets at Phillies series as the NL East race heats up
Friends of 'Seinfeld' versus legends of 'Always Sunny' lore. The New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies are tethered together for an intriguing three-game weekend series, and the rivals start Friday's action tied atop the NL East. New York has the best collective ERA in baseball, even amid some recent stumbles. Philly is fantastic in its home park, with or without Bryce Harper (wrist). The winner of this matchup gets a leg up in the division and temporary authority over sandwich cheese selection. Fox is available over the air with a broadcast antenna. 'Sunday Night Baseball' can also be streamed on ESPN+. Both teams have star-laden lineups worth tuning in for. The trio of Juan Soto, Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso regularly turn Flushing into a red carpet affair. In Philadelphia, Trea Turner and Kyle Schwarber are slashing at the top of the league yet again. Naturally, MLB broadcast partners want a piece of this action. Advertisement Friday's opener streams via Apple TV+, which requires a separate subscription — a pressure point for the sport's most dedicated fans. Saturday's showdown is on Fox, although a regionalized coverage split means viewers out west will get the Kansas City Royals at San Diego Padres. ESPN hosts the series finale on 'Sunday Night Baseball,' with Jon Sciambi assuming his usual play-by-play duties; he's joined in the booth by former pro Eduardo Pérez and Mets great David Cone. Without any regional broadcasts here, we're sadly deprived of uncut Gary Cohen-Ron Darling energies, and we won't see John Kruk bond with his best friend. The headliner is right-hander Zack Wheeler on Friday night. The former No. 6 overall pick was a rising star in New York and recorded a 3.77 ERA across five Mets seasons. He then signed with the team's archenemy after the 2019 season and truly leveled up in Philadelphia — almost a full run knocked off his ERA (2.92), with 1,009 strikeouts and two Cy Young runner-up finishes. Wheeler led the National League in WHIP last year at 0.955; his 2025 mark is somehow considerably better at 0.886. The Phillies' ace enters Friday's home start in the 99th percentile for pitching run value. He is serving up premium unleaded nightmare fuel to opposing batters. David Peterson is set to start for the visitors on Sunday. He's been fantastic thus far and specializes in deflating, quieting ground-ball outs. The southpaw threw a complete-game shutout against the Washington Nationals on June 11. NYM-PHI from the New York Times archive — 2007: 'New York lost a seven-game lead in the National League East with 17 to play. 'It's embarrassing,' closer Billy Wagner said. 'That's the big thing.' The Mets went 5-12 to close out the season; the Phillies, a beleaguered franchise that had its own historic collapse in 1964, went 13-4. They capitalized as the Mets' pitching crumbled, their defense disintegrated and their offense, potent at times, fell silent at inopportune moments.' (Ben Shpigel) Advertisement From their first-ever head-to-head playoff series — 2024: 'The sellout crowd greeted Lindor with chants of 'M-V-P!' The fans did their part, rising to the occasion — even singing along to 'My Girl,' Lindor's walkup tune — to set the stage. Then Lindor delivered with the latest version of the biggest hit of the Mets' season … Citi Field may never have been louder. The place erupted. It was only fitting that Lindor came through with the hit that sent the Mets to the NLCS.'
