Ted

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.
