Oh, Apple, we 'BELIEVE' in you! You can now watch Ted Lasso season 3 episode 3, as it just dropped 'early.' Just like ho Apple TV Plus released Ted Lasso season 3 episode 2 earlier than you might have anticipated, and at just the right time if you ask us.

As for this week's edition of Richmond Goes To the Premier League, though, we have two new chess pieces in play, and one character having taken a new job. The latter, of course, is Trent Crimm (James Lance), who's talked his way into the Richmond locker room to write a book about the Greyhounds.

Crimm's entrance into the fold allowed for moments with Roy Kent (Brett Goldstein) and helped create an environment where the team coach could get more vulnerable as he continues to slowly open up about his breakup with Keeley (Juno Temple). My Ted Lasso season 3 episode 2 recap explained it all.

The biggest new character introduced, though, is the mononymous Zava (Maximilian Osinski) who just left Juventus and almost signed with Chelsea, and then with Richmond rival West Ham. Yes, Rupert (Anthony Head) practically talked this egotistical athlete — who is believed to be a trophy-generating machine that leaves chaos in his wake — into signing for his newly acquired team. But one big speech from Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham) was all it took.

Lastly, Keeley ran into old friend Shandy Fine (Ambreen Razia) at a commercial shoot, and wound up offering her a job at KJPR.

We at Tom's Guide have already watched the first four episodes, so check out our spoiler-free Ted Lasso season 3 review to see what we think. The show has definitely has earned its spot in our guide for what to watch in March 2023. Oh, and if you're confused about all these release times? Our Ted Lasso season 3 episode schedule has you covered.

So, re-watch the season trailer below, and scroll down to learn everything you need to know about watching Ted Lasso season 3 episode 3 online!

When does Ted Lasso season 3 episode 3 come out?

As we expected, Ted Lasso season 3 episode 3 hit Apple TV Plus today (Tuesday, March 27) at 9 p.m. ET. / 6 p.m. PT — which is also 1 a.m. GMT / 12 p.m. AEDT on Wednesday (March 28).

This conflicts with its scheduled Wednesdays at 3 a.m ET / 12 a.m. PT / 7 a.m. GMT / 6 p.m. AEDT debut time, but Apple's gone with Tuesday nights for two back to back weeks.

This matched how previous Apple TV Plus shows have debuted at 9 p.m. ET the night before episodes are scheduled to drop. We first saw this with Severance.

How to watch Ted Lasso in the U.S. and possibly for free

We're assuming Ted Lasso fans may have already signed up for Apple TV Plus, and probably can't use the Apple TV Plus 7-day free trial.

But if you're on a Roku, you should be able to get three free months of Apple TV Plus. Existing and new Roku owners can get this offer, just add Apple TV on your Roku to get the deal (you may need to set up a new account to avoid doubling up on your current Apple ID).
