Renewed: Ted

US comedy Ted has been renewed for a second season.

Binge claims season one of the prequel series as the biggest U.S. comedy launch on its platform (but offered no numbers).

Season one features creator and star Seth MacFarlane alongside Max Burkholder, Alanna Ubach, Scott Grimes and Giorgia Whigham.

In this comedic prequel event series to the Ted films, it’s 1993, and Ted the bear’s (MacFarlane) moment of fame has passed. He’s now living back home in Framingham, Massachusetts with his best friend, 16-year-old John Bennett (Burkholder), along with John’s parents, Matty and Susan (Grimes and Ubach) and cousin Blaire (Whigham). Ted may be a lousy influence on John, but at the end of the day, he’s a loyal pal who’s always willing to go out on a limb for friendship.

Seth MacFarlane serves as executive producer, writer, director, co-showrunner and “Ted.” Paul Corrigan and Brad Walsh serve as executive producers, writers and co-showrunners. The event series is also executive produced by Erica Huggins, Alana Kleiman, Jason Clark and Aimee Carlson (Fuzzy Door Productions). Ted is produced by UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, Fuzzy Door and MRC.
