I loved all the Ted movies and thought I’d give this show a try and I’m genuinely astonished. This is without a shadow of a doubt, the worst show I have ever watched in my entire life😭 I have never went onto Reddit to complain about anything ever in my life, but this show is just so bad I feel like I had to at least try and understand the hype.
To sum up a very long explanation, just about everything that could go wrong or could be bad with this show, did just that.
The dialogue is actually laughable. Not in a good way, i honest to god think a middle schooler could whip up a better script. It just feels so fake and forced. I actually thought they were intentionally doing it for the first 25 minutes of the show before I realized it just had the budget of a Biggie Bag.
The characters are god awful. They have no personality, no consistency and most of all, are played by some of the worst actors I’ve ever seen. The only tolerable characters are Ted and Matty, every single one of them, especially outside of the main cast, don’t even seem like actors to me.
The biggest point here is without a doubt, the plot. I may already seem like I’m just a hater, but I promise you all, I do not hate on shit like this. Anyway, the plot is the most poorly put together, unthought out, meaningless slop I have ever had the displeasure of watching. The first episode already left me speechless with how bad it was. But the second episode was so utterly horseshit and meaningless, it was almost infuriating. I honestly don’t think I could come up with a worse episode if I tried.
Even the fucking setting sucks. I feel like they’re trying way to hard to make it like a live action family guy. The little space they had for the park in episode two as well. I don’t know what it was about it but it just felt so poorly put together and so unappealing to my eyes.
And the overall ‘quality’ is just shit too. I’ve seen dhar man skits with better camera equipment and lighting. It feels like they’re in a fucking porn studio
And I cannot stress enough that I am not just some stuck up douche bag. I really have never done some shit like this in my life. I truly believe this is the most miserable excuse for a TV show I’ve ever witnessed and the only reason I got to episode two is because I was so astonished with how bad the first one was.
Edit: I just looked up the budget per episode and actually couldn’t stop laughing after I saw 8 million dollars per episode… Is SethMcfarlane wiping his ass with it?? Seriously, where could this shit possibly be going.
