When I discovered that Peacock was making a "Ted" prequel show, I can’t say I was especially interested. I enjoyed the two "Ted" movies released in the 2010s, but when the credits rolled on "Ted 2," I distinctly remember thinking that the concept of a foul-mouthed teddy bear come to life had been taken as far as it could go.
So, when "Ted" debuted on Peacock earlier this month, I wasn’t in any rush to watch. But then over the next few days, a strange thing started to happen — my social feeds were flooded with mutual sharing clips. And, even more surprising, the short clips they were posting had me laughing loads. So, I figured it was worth seeing if the show could maintain that level of comedy, or if I was just seeing the highlights.
