In the upcoming comedy created by Seth MacFarlane, who also stars as Ted, the year is 1993 and John Bennett (Max Burkholder) is in high school. 

With his popularity fading, the sentient teddy bear is forced to do something other than create troubles, and that means going to high school with none other than his best friend John.

John and Ted’s early days won’t be complete without John’s family joining in on the fun – his father Matty, his mother Susan, and his cousin Blaire.

Check out the trailer for the new comedy series, Ted, right here.

Starring Seth MacFarlane, Ted also stars the following actors:

  • Max Burkholder as John Bennett
  • Alanna Ubach as Susan Bennett
  • Scott Grimes as Matty Bennett
  • Giorgia Whigham as Blaire

If you’re looking for more comedies like this one, there’s plenty of choices to try on streaming, including Fleabag, Beef, Wolf Like Me, Hello Tomorrow!, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and many more. You can also find more shows by exploring what’s on Foxtel.
