Editor's P/S
As a passionate fan of the Ted franchise, I am thrilled about the upcoming prequel series. The original movies hold a special place in my heart, and I can't wait to delve deeper into the origins of Ted and his lovable, yet troublesome, personality. The idea of exploring John Bennett's teenage years in 1993 alongside Ted is particularly exciting, as it promises a fresh and nostalgic perspective on their friendship.
The casting choices for the series seem promising, with Seth MacFarlane reprising his iconic role as Ted and Max Burkholder, Scott Grimes, Alanna Ubach, and Giorgia Whigham joining the cast as John Bennett, Matty Bennett, Susan Bennett, and Cousin Blaire, respectively. Although it's disappointing that the original cast members, including Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis, and Amanda Seyfried, won't be returning, I trust that the new additions will bring their unique charm and energy to the show.
