to the Better off Ted fans. Pretty funny but VERY vulgar version of the insult coworker memo episode. [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/Bh7Nz4bIwss/hqdefault.jpg "BETTER OFF TED - FUNNY, REALLY VULGAR OUTTAKES") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bh7Nz4bIwss) ---

Last night’s ep was very funny, too. I’m going to miss the show. ---

How many more episodes are left? I just discovered this show and I’m kinda bummed out that I missed most of it. Hopefully, there’ll be a complete series DVD release. ---

Don’t dig Better Off Ted’s grave just yet, [this interview](http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/watch_with_kristin/b161697_abc_boss_talks_comedy_pickups.html) with the head of ABC hints that it could stick around if rating improve. ---

There is at least one more new Ted on the schedule next Tuesday. The following Tuesday is the Lost premiere which uses up all of prime time. I have a sneaking suspicion that something other than Ted will be in that time slot thereafter. ---

Hoping this show sticks around, as we find find it one of the best new comedies. Slightly off-topic, regarding your link. Am I the only one who is getting “breaking” access to some links like this? I see it is forcing the “double click” spammer onto my computer and when I try to read the article, it disappears. This has been happening on my computer for the past month or so - just wonder what is going on. ---

I’m reviving this thread to let you know that tomorrow night (Thursday, June 17), ABC is showing the last two episodes of Better Off Ted. (One episode each at 8pm and 8:30pm.) As always, check your local listings. ---

I didn’t know about the basketball game. Sorry about that. I haven’t yet been able to find when they plan to air those episodes. ---
