"Ted" TV on Peacock



"Ted" is a new 7-episode live-action 'event' comedy TV series created by Seth MacFarlane ("Family Guy"), as a prequel to Macfarlane's "Ted" feature (2012) and "Ted 2" (2015), now starring Max Burkholder, Alanna Ubach, Scott Grimes and Giorgia Whigham, 
streaming January 11, 2024 on Peacock:


"...it’s 1993, and 'Ted' the bear’s moment of fame has passed. He’s now living back home in Framingham, Massachusetts with his best friend, ''John Bennett' (Max Burkholder), along with John’s parents, 'Matty', 'Susan' and cousin 'Blaire'. Ted may be a lousy influence on John, but at the end of the day, he’s a loyal pal who’s always willing to go out on a limb for friendship..."


According to MacFarlane, ".... in the fifties, it was the bold brushwork of the abstract expressionists. Our generation’s unique art is streaming content based on previously successful intellectual property. In that proud tradition, we humbly give you Ted.


"Our series is a prequel to the 'Ted' movies. It takes place in the nineties but is based on the timeless truth that being sixteen sucks. The only thing that makes it tolerable is going through it with a friend, even if that friend is a has-been magical teddy bear with a foul mouth and a proclivity for drug use."
