Production Team Insights

Jason Sudeikis shared his enthusiasm for the new season, stating, “As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to ‘look before we leap,’ in season four, the folks at AFC Richmond learn to leap before they look, discovering that wherever they land, it’s exactly where they’re meant to be.”

Jack Burditt, known for his work on “30 Rock” and “Modern Family,” will serve as an executive producer for the fourth season under an overall deal with Apple TV+. In addition to Sudeikis, executive producers include Brendan Hunt, Toheeb Jimoh, Joe Kelly, Jane Becker, Jamie Lee, Bill Wrubel, and Goldstein, who will also contribute as a writer.
