Better Off Ted - Blu-ray Forum

Anybody see this pilot last night at 8:30 on ABC after Scrubs? It was surprisingly funny, I'm sure the one guy who got frozen is going to get really irritating if they keep the yelling thing going, but it had a fun tone to it.

I like it. I'll continue watching, see where it goes. I really like the daughter of Ted, funny.

fatediesel · 03-19-2009, 01:55 PM

I watched it and thought it was decent. Still, I don't think it will last long. Too quirky to be a hit, and Scrubs isn't exactly a great lead-in for strong ratings.

Portia de Rossi, mmmmmmm damn ellen.

I like the girl from "Joey," but that's about all I caught. Maybe I'll give it a shot next week.

Portia is hot. Didn't see the whole thing. Migth watch it since it's before Lost. Miss the Lost recaps.

i forgot it was on. but i think it looks funny. but i also know it won't last

makaveli21 · 03-19-2009, 02:27 PM

I thought it was good, but I actually expected it to be better. I thought it was going to be a little more Arrested Development-esque...

Ator the Invincible · 03-19-2009, 02:35 PM

I had intended to watch it as it's on between Scrubs and Lost, 2 of my favorite shows. But I ended up pausing Scrubs and fell too far behind to fit Ted in before Lost started. I'll give it a go next week.

I thought it was pretty good. Kind of reminded me of "Dilbert" on a managerial level. Hopefully they can keep the funny going.

I thought that it was interesting and quirky in a good way. I will have to watch more episodes.

So watched this again on Wednesday and it was still pretty funny, anyone else been keeping up? It's good but I fill my TV quota each week already with the other shows.

rwmega · 04-25-2009, 03:18 PM

This show gets better every week. I've heard rumors that it's on the bubble though weather or not its getting a 2nd season. I hope ABC keeps this show in the line-up. The writing is great and the show is witty.

Ator the Invincible · 06-23-2009, 09:35 PM

For any fans of the show who didn't know (I actually just found out), Better Off Ted returns tonight with all new episodes on ABC. They only showed 7 of the 13 season one episodes during the spring. Now that the show has been renewed for a second season next year, they're airing the remaining 6 season 1 episodes this summer. The fun begins tonight at 9:30 Eastern time!

Mike53421 · 06-23-2009, 10:55 PM

Holy resurrected thread, Batman!

I'm glad to hear it was renewed, maybe I'll catch up on it this summer.

javabear · 06-23-2009, 11:51 PM

Thanks for the update on this show. I enjoyed the first set of episodes immensely. I wouldn't have known to watch it tonight if it was not for you.
