Better Off Ted - Page 4

New episode this week was so fucking funny. Changing all the cubicles and Veronica changing her appearance and trying to act nice was awesome.

It's a pity that it's ratings slumped (moving nights will do that)...

It's pretty much a dead show walking in all the trade sites I check. Which sucks supremely since an interview with Lem and Phil said they were still filming episodes and had a considerable number of unaired ones in the can.

I know many people who watch, but we all watch it on abc.go.com from...errr... ummm... work.

In fact a week ago when there was no episode people were most distraut. To save in corporate bandwidth we set up a recurring supplier quality meeting with Veridian Dynamics in the Synergy conference room. It seemed appropriate.

This shows is a TV series similar to Office Space. If you are not part of the corporate culture a lot of thing here will go over your head.
Its a shame it may get canceled. The Ted guy is really charismatic and Potia and the other blond and just gorgeous.

Whew they move nights, what night is it on now? I tuned in and figured it was canceled

It was something to the order of they showed the season finale a night early (On Tuesday) because Scrubs had an hour long season(series?) finale for Wed night.

It will really suck if this series gets canned. Especially since according to two of the actors they have 5 more episodes in the can.

Got caught up, and surprisingly the scientist bring the funny far more then anyone else on the show. The black one reminds me of when Dave Chappelle, immitates a white guy. The white one I thought would just annoy me but his facial expressions sell his char well.

Looks like its renewed!

Awesome news. I'm a bit surprised, as it seemed like they were prepping it for a big dump.

sweet, best tv news in a while!

Haus · 05-16-2009, 05:12 PM

Hopefully this means a real second season and they'll show us the other 5 episodes they already have in the can first.

Excellent to hear that it is still alive! I really just don't understand how it is even on the ropes though, this shit is just hilarious.

It's on the ropes because it only pulls in around 70% the numbers in the highly sought after 18-49 age bracket compared to the rest of the ABC lineup. Apparently that's an important number. (source : Will Surviving Suburbia, The Unusuals, In the Motherhood, Cupid, Castle, Better Off Ted Be Renewed or Canceled Cancelled )

Now, the author of that site also admits that his usual "rules" are getting broken a lot this spring, but his track record shows they're usually right. I'm glad a rule got broken for this show.

Haus · 06-23-2009, 05:38 PM

Well, not only did it get picked up for a second season... They're airing the remaining season one episodes starting tonight on ABC. So if you're interested give it a look see.
