That seemed to be that, but it's robust DVD sales and re-runs viewing figures saw it being resurrected after a few years and its run ever since. Family Guy's star and creator Seth MacFarlane also became a familiar name in the comedy genre.
He co-created and voices the main character in American Dad! He also scored a major hit with Ted , which paired Mark Wahlberg with MacFarlane's crude talking teddy bear. The movie managed to rise above being a one-joke premise to be a genuinely funny comedy with some sweet moments.
With those kinds of numbers, it was only natural for a sequel to happen, with Ted 2 arriving in and focusing on the title character's battle to be recognized as a person so he can adopt a baby.

What worked for this movie. Well for starters I will compliment the cast. Seth MacFarlane does an excellent job at voicing Ted. But honestly, I'd argue that there are some noticeable differences between the two.
The CGI for Ted was also pretty well done and reasonably convincing. Mark Walhberg was also great in the movie. He doesn't deserve Oscars or critical acclaim but he provided a good enough performance. Perhaps the film's greatest merit is it's awesome premise. The simple concept of a toy coming alive to be your friend is simply incredible. The story surrounding this premise was pretty weak but it wasn't awful. I wish it had gone through a redraft just to refine it a bit and to fix the awful ending, but it isn't atrocious.
Humour is a subjective thing. A film can neither be funny nor unfunny, objectively. So if I tell you this movie is hilarious which I personally think , you may not think so. All I will say is that I personally found it hilarious. If you do not, then that is your opinion. I cannot recommend this movie for the comedy but that is purely a subjective thing. My flaws with this film? As stated before, the main two are the general plot and the ending.
It is way too sappy and way too ridiculous. Comedy is also a factor but I cannot recommend it based on that. If you enjoy some of MacFarlane's other work, then I recommend this movie. The premise and acting are both solid so if you like MacFarlane's humour, you've got a trifecta of reasons to see this movie. If you cannot stand MacFarlane, don't touch this with a 10ft pole. FAQ 3.
