Oh, God, I loved "Better Off Ted." It was brilliant and hilarious.

Yes! More Veronica!

Oh my God this, she's one of my favorite characters of all time.

YEEEEEEEES.

I love Arrested Development, but it wrapped up almost perfectly, and I don't have any desire to watch more of the Bluth family. Better Off Ted ended way, way too early. :(

Loved Better Off Ted. Still watch it every couple of weeks. I like Ted/Veronica, who's with me?

I want both.

I think that Better Off Ted might have survived if it has premiered a couple years later when ABC already had a more solid comedy block with Modern Family and The Middle. I think the humor in Better Off Ted would have meshed well with Happy Endings.

But alas.

At the time, ABC didn't have much in the way of comedy programming, so Better Off Ted kind of got lost.

I really think it needed to be on cable, or sandwiched between mega-hits (which are few and far between these days.) Even if it was airing this year in a slot after Modern Family and before Happy Endings, I still think it would bomb. It was just too odd to live on broadcast.

ITA. I loved the show, but it was ahead of it's time so to speak.

OMG me too. Better Off Ted was awesome.

The biggest problem with Better Off Ted was Ted. He was okay, but Veronica and the scientist guys were the reason I watched, and should have been the center of the show.

My big problem with Better off Ted was Linda. I actually really liked Ted -- average dude without Big Problems -- but oh my God I continually want to smack Linda.

I adore Veronica and Rose, though. Rose is pretty much my BFF as a child, down to the looks.

While I respect that opinion, I disagree. For me personally, it's always rankled that FOX cut the season orders for the last two years of the show - said we were getting 22 episodes and instead we got 18 and 13 instead. Even though I loved how they did wrap things up, for some reason, I can't let go of the feeling that we were cheated. (I feel the same way about Farscape season five btw, DAMN YOU SKIFFY.)

While I've always tried really hard not to get my hopes up about the endless rumors about the proposed movie and about the Netflix deal, the tweets and pics have GOTTEN to me in a major way. Like, practically in tears, gotten to me. I hope it'll be great, as great as the fans could ever hope it would be. If it's not, I hope I'll at least have the closure I somehow didn't get from the season three finale.

But, hey, I wouldn't say no to a Better off Ted revival, either.

I don't know what that is, but you're clearly wrong.
