Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Better Off Ted Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
What a great ensemble cast, snappy writing, and pure fun... I didn't even know this show existed until Hulu brought it to my attention... First show I've felt like buying...

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Clever, November 6, 2011
This review is from: Better Off Ted Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
For television comedy, you can't get much better. Sure they were sharp but could have been sharper. But then they only had two seasons to tune into the characters. The casting was great and the execution by the actors was almost spot on; a little too much here and a bit not enough there. Each story was well written, thoughtful, original and clever. This show was not given a chance. All it needed was a smart audience (oh yeah, this is America)and a good time slot. This is an unfortunate loss that should have been allowed to blossom into its full potential. It is at least as good as "The Big Bang Theory". And, it dealt with contemporary issues in the workplace and corporate issues on top of that. Maybe the sponsors were scared of by some of the themes portrayed in these episodes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cancelled before its time, October 6, 2011
This review is from: Better Off Ted Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
This is a perfect example of a show cancelled before it should have been. The writers were incredible and the actors played their characters to comedic genius. It was slightly cheesy at points, but I'm pretty show that's the point. The entire show is so over-the-top you can't help laughing, especially the Veridian Dynamics commercials.
