How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A raunchy buddy comedy that treats a talking teddy bear as the premise for exploring adult friendship and the messy work of growing up. It's silly and vulgar, but surprisingly tender about the bonds we form.

It's wild that a TV show version of this on Peacock so many years later is better than the movie.
I'm pretty mixed on this overall. I love everything with Patrick Warburton and Matt Walsh. I like Giovanni Ribisi, but I don't think the kidnapping plot really adds anything here. So much time passes between their first interaction and the kidnapping that it just feels shoehorned in. I still laugh sometimes though, so I guess I land on the positive side of mixed.
I don't like the Ted movies, so I was very surprised to like this show. The first episode was average, but the others all had several big laughs.
The laughs are very balanced between the main cast. This show would work without Ted just as a family sitcom. My favorite is Alanna Ubach, the mom, because I am biased and really love the Brady Bunch movie, in which she plays Marcia's best friend.
The actual episode plots aren't necessarily the best, but the jokes within really land. A lot of them come out of nowhere, but the unexpectedness adds to the appeal. There are a few references that I'm not sure fit the early 90s timeframe, but I don't think Ted needs to be historically accurate.
