"Better off Ted"

So, today I decided to give the new series "Better off Ted" a try, since I had nothing else to watch while doing my workout. I was instantly in love with the show. It seems smart, funny, and stars Portia de Rossi(Hence the picture). It also stars a black man as a mama boy scientist, which is refreshing. The relationships and characters are quirky, and the leading man has a lot of charisma.
The show is about Ted, who leads a Cyberdyne systems-ish corporation who's name I can't remember. All I know is that the video at the beginning parodies the Cyberdine promotional video they show at Universal Studios, among others. Ted is the..I don't remember his official position, either, but he tells the scientists what to do, takes orders from Portia de Rossi, and makes everyone happy.

"Nature attacks and annihilates the pumpkin with powdery little disease, which can be mutated and designed to attack human cell structure, causing enemy soldiers to grow a magnificent, soft, downy coating. And die!"-Dr Baba(sp)
A lot of funny writing in a pilot which does not sound as good without the acting! Seriously, watch:


If you have time after that, check out the reviews on this T-shirt.
"Befuddled and noxious, I was tossing and turning in my bed late last night. I was thinking too much, breathing too heavily. My eyes were still squinted and brow furrowed, darting every which way into dark nothingness. This wasn't the first night. Nor was it the 500th. Every night is like a battle, between me and the pressures of modern civilization.

Where did I go wrong? I had everything I ever wanted: I was soundly resting in red flannel pajamas, hair parted and gelled for convenience in the morning, ceiling fan coolly whispering, "yes, this is a safe place." My job, my family, my lawn... everything was perfect. Too perfect.

I donned my bunny slippers and opened my laptop. I was on a mission, a vision quest if you will, to change my ways. To change my life. To change my shirt. In the words of one great man, "if you change your shirt, you can then change your pants, and if you change your pants, then you can change the world."

The Three Wolf Moon T-Shirt howled to me, inviting me to continue my vision quest and redeem the dreams of that great man. His name? Jobiah. He was missing 6 teeth, said "done good" instead of "did well," and could not drive. I realized: the man with the mullet, the lumberjack on lunch break, the family with the barbed wire fence - they all had something in common! It was all making sense!

But now I sit, in perpetual awe, staring at the add to cart button. Could an average joe like me ever make a difference? What if the world suddenly stops turning? Would we all be propelled into space? Not on my watch... not this time, Three Wolf Moon T-Shirt!!! Daaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!rheBzdghdxgzbdfc"
