This show feels so much like Andy Richter and I could not be happier

Yeah if you went into it cold you'd probably be able to guess that it had the same creative people behind it very easily. So much is just in the same vein.

The only thing I don't like is the relationship stuff with Linda. Hopefully tonight's episode puts an end to that storyline.

Oh holy poo poo segregated fountains!

I couldn't stop laughing at that bit, I'm glad they went to a commercial.

Then they made it even funnier by giving the black guys a bunch of white guys to use as slaves.

The weird thing about the show is that everything is so fast paced the episodes feel super short.

Why do that? They're all streaming on ABC's site, I think.

Its a reference to Andy Richter where Fox didn't air all the episodes.

I have yet to take the plunge, where would you folks place the show on a scale of network funny with Arrested Development and 30 Rock at the top?

Have you watched and enjoyed Andy Richter Controls the Universe? If so this show is a no brainer, its basically Andy 2.0.

For those of you who don't watch the USA show Burn Notice, Jay Harrington (Ted) is the scumbag of the week for the latest episode.

I feel like ABC needs to do surprise showings of this. Advertise some other popular show and then... SURPRISE! It's Better Off Ted. They'd need some way to force people into not changing the channel until they've actually watched it, though. Basically, people need to watch it because most people will like it.

They should move it back to it's old timeslot on Wednesday where it would be right smack in the middle of all their other comedy shows.

So was it supposed to be a good or a bad thing that they ran a new episode of Ted in a timeslot where people who actually watched show knew was coming, and ran it so late that my DVR only caught 10 minutes of it so I have to go online to even view it? I guess it's good that they aired it after a major sporting event to try to get more audience, but it's kind of a kick in the balls to the people who actually are watching.

It's up on Hulu right now.

Hulu doesn't count towards Neilson ratings.

It was just to generally let people who missed it know that it's online right now.

Also, while it might not count towards Neilson ratings it's not like networks don't pay attention to Hulu at all.

This episode really feels like it was filmed weird. Lots of close ups and odd shots.

I love how expressive Linda's face is whenever she's talking to somebody. She never hides anything so you can always read her mood.

It's how they both keep their eyes on the other guy. And the arms. I think this is my favourite gif ever. Or the next few months at least.

They always do the arms thing when they chest bump.

I am still interested in giving out a Better Off Ted gang tag, just one that doesn't suck so much. In memoriam, I suppose. Someone come up with a better one (nothing flashy)

Maybe instead of VD it could be something involving White Shadow.

Twice a week after work I put on a totally realistic bear costume and hang out at the park. Yeah, it makes me feel powerful, mighty. I don't scare anyone, I sit in the bushes, root around for berries. Once I pushed on a camper. You know, bear kind of stuff.

Out of all the weird stuff on the show that was probably the weirdest. Just getting Taye Diggs to show up and be a guy who dresses up in a bear costume in the park at night.

Yeah, even when they don't air the episodes for some other reason (like Boondocks Season 2 BET episodes) they end up on the DVD.

Quick question unrelated to Ted: If I were to change my avatar, would I lose the tag I made?

Yes, but you can usually get it back by asking a mod/admin.
