It means there's finally something good (and funny) on Tuesday nights. Read full review

Linda Stasi

It's hilarious and even funnier this year than last. Read full review

Ken Tucker

The first two episodes contain strong subplots about staff downsizing and rolled-back pensions, indicators that Ted is doing a better job of folding real-life resonances into its silliness. Read full review

Ellen Gray

It's even funnier than I remember. Read full review

Aaron Barnhart

Not only is it funnier than its lead-in, it’s improved on its impressive (and sadly truncated) first season on ABC. Read full review

David Hinckley

The droll office comedy Better Off Ted could have quickly turned into a one-joke bore. Instead, it sails into its second season tonight as one of the best sitcoms on television. Read full review

Rob Owen

The show remains a chilly affair, which will probably limit its acceptance but for viewers who appreciate satire, particularly of a modern workplace, it's difficult to imagine a show on the subject that's funnier than Ted. Read full review

A hilarious and extremely creative show! The workplace setting and zany humor is similar to 30 Rock, while the connectivity of the story arcs and dialogue brings back flashes of Arrested Development. Fans of either of those two shows should definitely watch!
