Ted, the prequel to Seth MacFarlane’s movies, is one of Peacock’s most successful original series. So they almost immediately picked it up for a second season. But that was almost two years ago. Since then, there has been no word about when it would debut. Today, we finally got that answer.
It’s 1994, and senior year of high school is underway for Ted the foul-mouthed teddy bear and his best friend, likable but awkward John Bennett. Together they live in a working-class Boston home with John’s parents (Matty and Susan) and cousin (Blaire). Matty is a blustering, blue-collar Bostonian who sees himself as the unequivocal boss of the house and doesn’t like anyone challenging him, particularly his liberal-minded niece. Susan is kind, selfless, and almost pathologically sweet when it comes to caring for her family. Blaire is an outspoken college student who often finds herself at odds with her more traditional-minded relatives.
Executive producers, Paul Corrigan and Brad Walsh, said, “We hope you enjoy these eight somewhat filthy, hopefully funny heartfelt episodes about a young man, his talking teddy bear, and their highly dysfunctional family. On the off-chance the series is not your cup of tea, a great way to get us back is to leave all the episodes playing to completion on multiple devices throughout the house. That’ll show us.”
Ted 2 will drop all eight episodes on March 5th. You don’t have to wait until then to show them. You can watch the highlarious first season on Peacock now. You will want to show them several times because it seriously should be illegal to be that funny!!!
