Greg Alba, John Humphrey, & Jon Maturan react to Episode 1 of Peacock’s TED, the raunchy and heartfelt series premiere titled “Just Say Yes.” Serving as a prequel to Seth MacFarlane’s hit films, the series rewinds to the early 1990s to explore the chaotic origins of the friendship between a teenage John Bennett and his foul-mouthed, living teddy bear. The premiere reintroduces Ted (voiced by Seth MacFarlane – Family Guy, The Orville) as a politically incorrect, boundary-free menace navigating adolescence alongside John Bennett (Max Burkholder – Parenthood, The Purge). As Ted’s fame fades and reality sets in, the episode leans into outrageous comedy and surprising heart, spotlighting family dynamics with John’s exhausted parents Susan (Alanna Ubach – Euphoria, Coco) and Matty Bennett (Scott Grimes – ER, The Orville), while newcomer Blaire (Giorgia Whigham – The Punisher, Scream) shakes up the household with sharp wit and skepticism toward Ted’s influence. Packed with crude humor, nostalgic ‘90s vibes, and an unfiltered look at growing up with a magical but deeply inappropriate best friend, the premiere sets the tone for a series that balances shock laughs with genuine coming-of-age moments. We break down the biggest jokes, character introductions, and how the show expands the Ted universe beyond the movies. #TedSeries #TEDPeacock #SethMacFarlane #TED #ComedySeries #TVReaction #TVReview #PeacockTV #AdultComedy #TedPrequel #SeriesPremiere #Binge #Bingeworthy #FamilyGuy #AmericanDad #TheOrville #Hilarious #TryNotToLaugh #React #ReactTo #Reaction
