You might need to set your alarm for the 5am club to catch this Mark "Marky Mark" Wahlberg classic comedy, which is set to leave Netflix imminently – at the end of 15 February – just as a Seth MacFarlane-directed new mini-series commences on streaming service rival Peacock. Maybe it'll be your ideal Valentine's Day 2024 movie, instead of one of these 5 classic rom-coms.
The movie in question is the original Ted, released in 2012, as the Family Guy creator's directorial debut. It was divisive then for its depiction of a foul-mouthed talking teddy bear and, well, it's just as divisive today – with love-it-or-hate-it scores settling its Rotten Tomatoes audience rating at 73%. Still, better than the sequel, which bombed at a mere 45% critics rating on the same site. Ouch.
