the family guy and the 2 ted movies connection

[@mypeopleskillsarerusty4569]

Bruh when the dad/uncle admitted what he did in Vietnam had me in tears

[@Randy218_]

Fr! That poor dog 🤣

[@sneezinhatch]

Damn near pissed myself

[@vick1330]

I chocked on my pizza

[@videogamemadness1582]

I laughed so hard on that episode 😂

[@JordonThomas707]

Bro the way he screamed it! 🤣 And also the doctors where fucked 🤣

[@olleselin]

Because Seth McFarlane, that's why! Speaking of McFarlane, his cartoon, "Family Guy" is turning 25 today!

[@bpsbps6764]

I could watch this for 10 extended seasons

[@AYE_23B]

I could watch it a rewatch it and not get tired

[@omarjimenez8895]

The Erin classroom roast was a top 3 moment of the show in my opinion

[@moussatahirou1531]

The humour is very much Family Guy irl

[@frankd9945]

More heart tho

[@DoubleHCreations]

Very true

[@athiestjesus8133]

Ted is what Family Guy used to be

[@TheCommenterDragon]

I loved the Ted tv series! It was a real treat to hear Seth Macfarlane voice the character again nearly a decade after Ted 2 came out! In fact on some level I'm hoping that the tv series gets a 2nd season. I mean it probably won't but you never know.

[@mrhumble2937]

Why wouldn't it. Think its doing very well.

[@TheCommenterDragon]

@@mrhumble2937 True, But we are talking about Seth Macfarlane here. And you never know what he's gonna do.

[@Randy218_]

This show deserves a season 2, it's perfect

[@walkerpaulp6526]

So there's no season 2 coming out just yet

[@NickCC23]

Alanna Ubach deserves a Supporting Actress Emmy nomination. She's been around for 30 years from Legally Blonde to Bombshell to Euphoria. She was the best part of "Crossing Swords" and brings the tragicomedy in "Euphoria" and played the matriarch in "Coco".

[@mollyraymff]

That's where I know her from!! I couldn't place it for the life of me😂

[@cityhawk]

She was also incredibly funny on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia playing Frank’s hooker.

[@taylorpham3151]

Don’t forget Roxy from It’s always sunny

[@JulieDelahooke]

Who was she in legally blonde??

[@LeonardoKlotz]

Seth MacFarlene really belongs to TV

[@jimbo9208]

which is already is

[@pepito2847]

I am really happy to hear about the high praise that the Ted tv series has been getting I myself have also enjoyed the episodes I have seen so far Ted is his usual awesome self and Johnny and his family are all fun characters And the 1993 setting is pretty cool

[@albertwesker5898]

Ted & Alf. Now there is a show I'll watch over and over.

[@Sk8rToon]

You forgot to mention The Orville connections. There’s a lot of the same actors

[@Reaperguy67]

I enjoyed it. Im hoping a 4th season will come at some point

[@exileayahika]

Just finished Season 1. Loved it, hope to see a season two!

[@tmovies92]

I would love to see Alf make a cameo for Ted: season 2. If Alf could cameo on Young Sheldon, he could cameo on Ted.

[@JulieDelahooke]

The only thing they haven’t referenced from the original is “thunder buddies for life” and why they’re scared of thunder

[@DoubleHCreations]

I love how they set it so far back in time that it would take almost 15 seasons to reach the movies’ part of the timeline.

[@crypticghost21]

I know this is kind of off topic, but every time I think of Seth McFarlane, I immediately think of Peter Griffin

[@CheerfullyCynical829]

MacFarlane

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

Ted was an amazing surprise! Love the movies and show😊😊😊❤❤

[@LarryDevaun]

My favorite jokes are the McDonald's apple pie being on fire, them describing how broken there house is and ted stuffing his bra. 😂

[@ralphso5567]

The Apple Pie is funny cause its still like it to this day

[@kevinnelson66]

McDonald's apple pies are like eating fire and their coffee is like drinking lava.

[@walkerpaulp6526]

Heck yeah 🤣

[@alhowell4732]

Awesome, all Seth needs now is a Ted, the Animated Series ! 👍

[@CodyFairlessLee]

I love this show, but I hate how because John’s parents were played by different actors, they’re basically different people. Like if somehow something happened to John’s parents when Ted came to life and he got new parents. Also, we don’t just need a second season, we need a TED 3!

[@byroniasmaximus924]

Some of the dinner table arguments (discussions) were so like my family's i had to check if we were watching our home movies.

[@randomreviews4278]

5:45 ummm hello Scott grimes who does the voice Steve on American Dad which also Seth McFarlane made

[@tmovies92]

a Schindler's List reference in Ted isn't that crazy. Schindler List had Liam Neeson and Liam Neeson had a fun cameo in Ted 2, as well as Family Guy. now I'm surprise Ted didn't noticed Liam Neeson in the Grocery Store, especially since he claimed to have seen Schindler's List.

[@kevinnelson66]

Liam also appeared as the villain in A Million Ways To Die In the West and an episode of The Orville.

[@theoriginalThud]

Yes it is! It’s the first time I found myself laughing out loud to a tv show in quite a while. I would say it’s my guilty pleasure but I don’t really feel that guilty. I’m just glad I’m not the only one who really likes this nice little gem. If enough people watch it, they’ll keep it going.

[@Mrprofesser95]

Hearing Matty yell about his Slim Jims, but I only hear Steve Smith yell about his Slim Jim’s 😂😂😂

I wanna Hug this Giant Teddy Bear!!! 🖐🏻😁🖐🏻

[@joshuaW5621]

Man I’m so excited to see this premiere in Ireland next week. I love Ted.

[@ace.of.skulls]

Honestly the best TV show released in a long time

[@LowellLucasJr.]

Family Guy turns 25 today so heres the best moments of Ted's TV series!❤

[@donaldmacarthur]

I'm still waiting on a confirmation for a 4th season of Seth's Star Trek homage, The Orville... let alone season 2 of Ted... lol

[@CheerfullyCynical829]

I want S2 of Ted way more than Orville

[@MaggieLawlor]

Definitely need more episodes of Ted. Great cast, characters and writing. Unique sitcom in a world of too predictable storylines. I'm old enough to remember All in the Family, Barney Miller, Maude, Murphy Brown and similar series with fresh ideas and intelligent, hilarious writing, extremely talented cast members. Ted is as fresh and entertaining in this era as those shows were in theirs.

[@seanpyne592]

Because Seth McFarlan know how to write sitcoms

[@julienramel222]

ok, watched 45 seconds, no need for more I'm in.

[@opinionmaximus]

You won’t regret it I watched it a couple of days ago and it is hilarious!!!!

[@fishpop]

Wait there's a Ted TV show? Is that why i keep seeing Ted clips on Twitter?

[@mypeopleskillsarerusty4569]

Yeah it’s on Peacock

[@fishpop]

@@mypeopleskillsarerusty4569 Another reason i had no idea it existed. That and i wasn't spammed with ads for it unlike tons of other trash i don't care about.

​@mype 4:20 opleskillsarerusty4569, thank you. I don't have Peacock. Is it free? Appreciate you😊

@@leesashriber5097 Peacock is one of the many Netflix clones so no it's not free.

It seems that I cannot watch it Bummer 😕🤷🏼Everything Seth McFarland does it is always Sexual 🤦🏼

[@TheScribe1.0]

I’m curious as to why Seth MacFarlene couldn’t get Ralph Garman and Alex Bortsein to play John’s parents.

[@brettfrost6828]

8:56 Child's Play 3 poster

[@jaymeehannaford8423]

Considering this is from Seth it was everything I expected it to be which is why I loved it so much. Hilariously wrong in all the best ways 😂 So glad it didn't push too hard to connect to the movies and just concentrated on the connection between John and Ted. Also... the jokes about Sheila's name... 😂 ❤ Please please please let there be a second series 🙏

[@damesofpk]

Show is an absolute laugh riot, hoping it gets a season 2.

I never had a reason to start a peacock account until now. This show is totally worth it 👍

Don't even bother with Fing Peacock

Nobody asked for this show, but I feel like we all deserved it. It's been a rough go for many years, and this was the treat we all needed.

[@bappabhattacharjee7779]

I hope Giorgia have the chance to play Catwoman in DC upcoming films. She pulls the costume perfectly after Michelle Pfeiffer

[@JordonThomas707]

It's funny I also caught the "genital hospital" reference

[@ths3525]

Seth MacFarlane and 90's go well together. That's basically where his comedy started so it makes sense to make a 90's tv show around ted.

[@CheerfullyCynical829]

I'm so glad it's based in the 90s. That makes it so much more enjoyable to me as an Xennial. I would hate it if it was based in today's times.

[@MartyWiggins-x2k]

How famous is TED he even has a group of talks named after him

[@ZephyrBW]

Loves red one and two the series is just chef kiss to help for depression and meeting some really good really great funny times especially in this day and age. I hope to God it gets a second season.

[@MatthewSmith-nc3vg]

So far I've watched the series 3 times since it was put on Peacock, I'll probably watch it again

[@CyGea]

The most Family Guy moment Ted has had, is the guy talking about adult diapers. That was pretty much a live-action Family Guy bit.

[@IsaSculpts]

I'm intimidated by people who watch a 10 minute video in one minute.

[@blackphilipalvarez1305]

I enjoyed it for Ted and John, the mom and dad steal the show, but the cousin character felt a bit out of place and forced at times. Still a funny show though.

[@Cap285]

"Guys, this is very sexual for me" i was tears 😂😂😂

[@CyGea]

How good Ted looks, makes me think One Piece should be able to pull off live-action Tony Tony Chopper.

[@jwiese100]

Ted basically is Seths chance to do family guy jokes live action

[@jakobtbone11]

This first season was good, but I like both the movies better. Don't get me wrong, though! The series did have its good and funny parts, and amazing pop culture references like you guys explain here, but do I think that the series could be just a little better? Absolutely! Here's hoping we get news on a 2nd season soon!

[@BeakerV21234]

Ted is the pinnacle of comedy 🎭 peak tv 📺

[@dragonforce627]

Um, did everyone forget that in the first Ted movie John and Ted clearly call each other thunder bubbies when John was like 10 years old?

[@strangetimes33]

I had the same thought, and I knew the answer right away on the first scene. Its because they don't do this pc comedy bullshit, it felt like something prior to 2014

[@jonjonh9992]

Matty is also Steve Smith from American Dad.... let that sink in

[@adamk-paxlogan7330]

This show is amazing

[@Splitgamer74]

If they made Family Guy like this then it would be like it was years ago instead of using cutaways every 2-3 minutes

3:59 When I was watching this series me and my friend agreed that Ted's CGI looks like if it was ported from a Nintendo console.

[@strells]

Can somebody confirm that the high school set is Back to the Future square at Universal Studios? I can't not see the clock tower and the street the Delorean drove down to catch the lightning.

[@CloneScavengerVulpin8389]

I'm thinking about watching the whole series.

[@janetmariededick6061]

Omg I laughed through the whole first episode! Same with the second. I love this show.

[@TheMilitaryMan623]

I loved some of the jokes, they were gold. I didn't like the rest of the show though. They straight up played each episode like it was family guy and i couldn't really get into it. It was family guy antics with live action people and the things people were saying were just extremely cringy sometimes because real people were saying it and not animated ones. If they didn't just make it another version of Family Guy and kept it as it's own show, then i would have loved it a lot more.

[@claymathewselevator8121]

I can’t believe I didn’t realize Scott Grimes played his dad

[@salvatoresultana4058]

I can’t stop watching this show

[@rig-zag]

I really hope Liam Neeson's Trix-obsessed weirdo from Ted 2 makes a cameo at some point. 😂

[@RandomRoss]

This is the best comedy show of 2024 so far.

[@theultimatefrozenfan]

I absolutely loved this series! I REALLY hope it gets a season 2! However, I will say the only episode I didn't like was the Christmas one. Dennis was such a hateable character and I did not like the way Matty the Dad was portrayed in this episode. Yeah he's a right-wing racist but they balance that out. When you dedicate a whole episode to right-wing racism, it's not funny and hits too close to home with what we're dealing with in the world right now. That being said the rest was freaking hilarious! Here are some of my absolute favorite jokes in the series! Episode 1: You don't have pockets, where'd you get that? Don't worry about where I'm keeping stuff! your son is on the roof! I'm calling the fire department! that won't be necessary ms. fechko. but he could fall off and get hurt. I think you misconstrued the situation ms. fechko hey president Eisenhower said everyone should stay in their house Mike Henry as the Banker wearing an Adult Diaper and throwing John the keys to get him a new pair of pants! Episode 2: my wife had a miscarriage we had a name picked out and everything we were gonna name him David aw looks like a big pee stain yeah why don't you ask your mom's face jeez that was way too far I'm sorry. just came out of my mouth before I could think about it like your mom! oh my god what the hell is wrong with me?! I deserve what I'm about to get. Episode 3: how's the wife Lloyd? I'm afraid Catherine passed away oh I'm terribly sorry Lloyd how's your son holding up? well we haven't spoken since her passing, I'm afraid he blames me for his mother's death. thank goodness I have my work or I don't think I could go on living. jeez, your fantasy includes the guy losing his wife and family?! why is a steak here $24 but at Rico's market it's $8? well supermarket prices and restaurant prices are different. yeah yeah yeah $16 mark-up for heat, does that make sense to you Kevin? you could order the Jr. steak off the kids menu for $9. OK now we're getting somewhere. that comes with an activity booklet or silly straw. both! how's everything? not good Kevin, Apple isn't in this word search! they allow diagonal sir well they should put that in the damn directions. try this crab I don't want to just a little taste why is it so important I taste what you ordered because I think you'll like it if I wanted the crab I would've ordered it but then I can ask you if you liked the crab in the car and then you can say yes you liked the crab for god sakes alright oh dammit that's better than what I ordered! hey Kevin hi I'm Brad, Kevin quit. Episode 4: Throwing Eggs at the kid dressed as Hulk Watching Disney's Watcher in the Woods The Professor wanting to have sex, not with Blaire but with Ted! The McDonald's Apple Pie catching fire...TWICE! Episode 5: Matty bought us tickets to see Simon & Garfunkel but he didn't know Garfunkel was a man so we had to leave. wait why? 2 men men shouldn't be singing in harmony! Dad I thought you liked Hall & Oates that's different. why? because they sing in unison, or they take turns, one and then the other one. That's OK! what about Crosby, Stills & Nash? They're alright for now, but I'm keeping my eye on them. Episode 6: Can we play? No! Aw Can I play with the truck? No! Aw Episode 7: A Whole New World-ing Ted stuffing the Bra and saying "NOW YOU KNOW!" The pedophile pharmacist helping John pick out a condom And of course, writing the Thunder Buddies Song.
