Ted: A Série

The story arcs could use some work, but this series is hilarious and knows no bounds. As is the case with Seth MacFarlane's Family Guy, we are treated to an array of politically incorrect humor, sexually charged situations, drug use, and people being beaten to a pulp or bullied. The Boston accents are spot on and these characters are developed appropriately.

This is a prequel to the events of Ted and Ted 2, but I bet anyone can go into this series without having seen either film. People who have a fondness for the 1990s should also get a kick out of this show.

On a strictly personal note, I've been out of work for a few months and Ted has been a delightful distraction for me. I laugh and cringe, but also feel affection for the Bennett family. This has everything that I look for in a comedy series, and more.

This Ted reboot brings the foul-mouthed teddy bear back to life with all the crude humor you expect, but this time with a fresh cast that nails the chaotic, raunchy vibe Seth MacFarlane set in the movies.

From the jump, Seth MacFarlane still voices Ted, delivering that perfect blend of vulgar wit and surprising charm. But the human cast is totally different here, and they bring their own flavor.

Alanna Ubach takes on Lori, the ever-patient girlfriend who tries to keep John in check, but honestly, this Lori's got a sharper edge. Then there's Max Burkholder as John Bennett, a relatable everyman who struggles to keep up with Ted's nonsense but still brings heart to the madness.

The supporting cast rounds out nicely with a mix of new characters who add fresh chaos and humor, making the series stand on its own and not just a copy of the films.

This version isn't trying to be a carbon copy - it's wilder and more adult, leaning harder into the raunch and randomness. The pacing can be uneven, and some jokes hit better than others, but when it's on, it's really on.

For fans of the original Ted movies who want more of that crude, unpredictable energy without the Hollywood gloss, this show delivers in spades.

9 out of 10.

Mind blown! As a die-hard Family Guy fan, I wasn't sure what to expect from Ted Live, but this show is an absolute game-changer. The humor, the characters, the absurdity - it's all so perfectly crafted. I'm obsessed! If you're a fan of Seth MacFarlane's style, you owe it to yourself to check this out. Can't wait for more!

Am a big fan of Ted, Ted 2 and Seth in general so was hoping this would be good.

I wasn't initially sold after the first two episodes but it gets better and better and funnier and funnier as it progresses! Really like the characters, they grow on you and it becomes classic Ted with the back story.

Great 80's throwbacks, film references etc which is great for me and along with the hilariously vulgar jokes there is the usual warmth that comes from the story line and characters.

Give it a chance if you are a Ted fan. Really hopeful of another season at some point but doesn't look like for now.

This is exactly what we need at times like this. The comedy is brilliant. You hear jokes which are rarely said these days. The writing and acting are quite good. They created a backstory in the best way possible. The new characters are also relatable. And I think the casting couldn't have been better except for John's dad who although is does an amazing job but I get a Bill Burr vibe from.

Still, I don't think episode six was necessary. That's not what Ted is about. The episode felt a bit off as if they were forced to make one with this concept. We are seeing enough of this in stories in the present time, I don't think we need it in stories from the 90s as well.

Overall, I enjoyed the show so much and I believe it has the potential for at least another 3 seasons which I seriously hope we get. Seth McFarlane has a great mind and is definitely able to extend this beautiful story. We all need more shows like this where the comedy is the focus.
