Honestly I think Seth Macfarlane is incredibly funny and talented but he suffers from spreading himself too thin across all his shows, which makes them all come across as mediocre.

well this is the first i’m hearing about it. according to the article it’s set in the 90s with younger versions of the two characters

I am of the same mind about marky mark but for one exception. His performance in The Other Guys is a master class of chewing the scenery. He hollers every one of his lines at the top of his lungs for the entire film. I thought it was a john waters movie because of the performances. Everyone was great but he really surprised me. Like Jason Statham in Spy, delivering jokes with perfect comedic timing. Sorry I’m way off topic.

Its probably much too soon and not a joking matter, but it would be kind of funny if Ted was somehow responsible for Brady's divorce in some Forest Gump kind of way.

Dude I laughed so fucking much in that movie, I even drooled on myself at one point.

The "I'm a peacock you gotta let me fly" and the whole screaming about the millennium falcon just damn near had me dead.

Not sure how much involvement he actually has as a producer now; TV shows that change to a new showrunner after the original creator has left entirely usually still give the creator a producer credit in basically an honorary sense. (I'm not saying that is necessarily the case there, but it happens fairly often.)

I would rather see how Ted and Wahlberg deal with Brady going to Tampa 😆 rather than a prequel

Listen Steven, don't make me get your manager. I want the Ted exclusive, with the extra stuffing, and the voice box that says I'm his best friend . Say hi to your mother for me.

What do you think this has to do with Orville when Seth clearly is hoping for S4? Seth isn't the reason there will or won't be a S4. They aren't even the same streaming services, let alone same company.

On Thursday I saw somebody in a full body Ted costume just standing on the side of the road with a sign that said "I'm thankful for YOU!" just waving at cars. Then I see this is coming out. Was that legit some guerrilla advertising shit I wonder? I never even knew this was coming out

AdamMcwadam t1_ixtuvv5 wrote

I was curious if I was right in thinking season 3 had far less jokes, so I went back and started watching season 1 and WOW is it different.

Problem is… season 3 was so much better, and if the jokes have to tone down to reach the level of season 3, then I’m okay with that.

MortalJohn t1_ixu3brn wrote

Side point, McFarlane makes far more from TED than Orville. So he makes stuff like this so he can afford to make his passion project Orville. Honestly the series would have been dead if not for him at this point.

I am dying for more comedy movies to come out, but this aint the franchise I was lookin for. That being said. I'll give it a shot. Serious lack in theatrical comedies at the moment.

Ted is better as a movie. I don't think it could possibly hold my attention enough to be a tv show imo

Aregisteredusername t1_ixu7fpn wrote

But the original movie shows Ted being. Roughy to life with the wish of a young Marky Mark. How will this prequel re-write that?

_Hotwire_ t1_ixu8oly wrote

I wish they would do a biopic for the funky bunch.

But have marky mark played by mark wahlberg trying to act like and dress like he did as a kid. Have all the other actors be very young as well to make it weirder.

Credits are most of the time negotiated by agents so it’s part of the deal. For family guy he created the show so he will always have his name on the credits and collect a check even if he ditched the voice work and someone else replaced him

Ugh. Omg. Like i own the first one on Blu-ray somewhere. I haven't even seen the second one (dumb plot) but I think this schtick (and several years way too late) is prob late and played out.... In 2023

keving87 t1_ixvwgkh wrote

That's because Fox (network) cancelled it during the Disney takeover and it got moved to Hulu, then COVID... and then it took a weirdly long time to resume filming for some reason. It has to be renewed before they can start production again anyway.

Loganp812 t1_ixvx8ro wrote

I mean, the first one has funny moments, but so many people were acting like it’s one of the greatest comedies of all-time despite it not even being one of the greatest comedies of that decade (which, btw, the 2010s was a relatively awful decade for comedies anyway with only a few exceptions.)

Loganp812 t1_ixvxtz2 wrote

It’s alright. He stole Wayne’s World 2’s parody of The Graduate (practically frame-by-frame in fact) for an episode of Family Guy as well as a visual gag from the music video for “Wynona’s Big Brown Beaver” - Primus for A Million Ways To Die In The West.

Perpete t1_ixw1hc8 wrote

Thing is, in theory people would like that, but what's important is the quality of the writing. A badly written/directed prequel with The Rock and SLJ would be disgusting. A good written/directed Ted prequel, albeit with fewer people asking for it, would be more interesting.

What people wants is good shows, the topic is not that important.

So we got the crapfest that was Ted 2 and still someone said lets make more of this?

ParkerZA t1_ixwnoo4 wrote

Agreed. I only used that example because The Other Guys is a parody of whatever prequel starring those characters would be. Thereby missing the entire point of The Other Guys.

DoctorMedical t1_ixxf30l wrote

Seth, Ted was a lazy unoriginal idea that didn’t have enough jokes for one movie let alone two. What the hell could a series possible offer?

CompetitiveProject4 t1_ixxkawz wrote

I agree but I’m not sure I would ever take a time machine to change it if the path led to them producing “Succession”

The combination of a UK and US comedy genius definitely led to some incredibly funny but truly high art.

A new season has yet to be ordered.

If it helps though, apparently the Krill God “Avis” was >!that hive-mind species of spider-creatures from the third season!< (from the Krill Bible) — when it said “>!You will be of us!<“, the “>!of us!<“ part was how the species itself pronounced “Avis” — as in “uv-us” becoming “uv-is” becoming “ave-is” (Avis).
