If someone would’ve told Peacock their biggest series would be about a horny, drug-addicted, foul-mouthed teddy bear, I bet the big whigs would’ve thought that person was crazy.
However, that is the case. So, today, the streaming service announced that Ted will be back for a second season.
Ted is the prequel to the two high-larious films, which were brought to the big and small screens by Seth MacFarlane.
The comedy takes place in the ’90s. We get to see Ted (MacFarlane) and his best friend, John Bennett (Max Burkholder), trying to survive their teenage years in high school. They get to try all the things we got to see them do when they were all grown up.
If you haven’t seen Ted, you should! It is so fucking funny and so wrong! And that is what makes it so right! Plus, Alanna Ubach deserves an Emmy for her portrayal as John’s mother, and Scott Grimes isn’t too shabby as her husband.
On May 17th, imaginary friends come to life in IF. And from now until June 16th, you can eat real food inspired by the Ryan Reynolds film at IHOP. Or should I say IfHOP?
“This spring, we are leaning into the nostalgia of having an imaginary friend and celebrating by encouraging our guests to gather with friends, family, and imaginary friends to reconnect and try our imaginative menu,” said Kieran Donahue, Chief Marketing Officer, IHOP. “Our new IF menu brings the magic of the movie to life like only IHOP can – through our iconic pancakes, French toast and new and exciting beverage options. This collaboration is designed to create meaningful experiences for our guests while continuing to serve joy with craveable menu options inspired by timely cultural moments like IF.”
The seven menu items are:
Blue’s Dazzleberry Pancakes: Blue raspberry flavored pancakes topped with vanilla mousse, whipped topping & Fruity Pebbles, available as a full stack or short stack.
Blue’s Dazzleberry Jr. Combo: One Blue’s Dazzleberry Pancake, 1 scrambled egg, 1 pork sausage link & 1 slice of bacon.
Lewis’ Cinn-A-Bear Stack: Buttermilk pancakes with cinnamon spread, cream cheese icing, cinnamon sugar donut holes & whipped topping, available as a full stack or short stack.
MagnIFicent French Toast Sandwich: Folded omelette-style egg, pork sausage patty, hash browns, American cheese & chipotle mayo on French Toast. Served with old-fashioned syrup & choice of side.
Coney Island Pizza Omelette: Pork sausage, green peppers & onions, marinara, crispy pepperoni & four-cheese blend. Served with choice of side.
Blossom’s Orangesicle: A blend of lemonade, lemon-lime soda & vanilla syrup. Garnished with whipped topping, Fruity Pebbles, and a gummi butterfly.
Unbelieva-Blue Soda Pop: A blend of lemon-lime soda & blue raspberry syrup. Garnished with The Original Bomb Pop® that’ll turn your drink purple.
I don’t know what I am more excited about, the movie or this menu. I know what I am going to do. I will go to the International House of Pancakes before I go to the movie theater, see IF, and then go back to the restaurant for seconds.
Before Timothée Chalamet was a multi-nominated actor, he got his start on Law & Order like so many New Yorkers. How believable was the 12-year-old as a dead body?
