Ted, Seth MacFarlane’s potty-mouthed bear, has returned to our screens in his own series – and fans are taken aback by how great it is.

The latter project didn’t arrive to much fanfare – however, slowly but surely, several clips from the show have been met with laughs across social media.

Ted is set in 1993, revolving around the high-school exploits of John and his reliably crude, loyal teddy. All seven episodes of the series are available to stream on Peacock now – and it’s starting to find a big audience.

“I can confirm that the Ted show is great,” one userwrote, posting screenshots from a gag that saw Ted and John watching an “adult movie” – they expected it to be porn, but they rented The 400 Blows.

“Nah that new Ted show is peak comedy,” anotherwrote. “If you’re a fan of old school Family Guy (like, the first 3 or 4 seasons), then you owe it to yourself to watch the new Ted TV series. Holy sh*t,” a thirdposted.

“I just love the #Ted series it’s literally family guy but live-action even aside from Seth MacFarlane the cutaways… the gags and outrageous stupidity of everyone in this world. This is the closest to a live-action Family Guy I’ve ever seen,” a sixthtweeted. “Nah this new Ted tv show is surprisingly hilarious and not holding back man,” anotherwrote.
