Need cow-less meat grown in a test tube? Done.
Need pumpkins that also double as weapons of mass destruction? No problem.
Better Off Ted is a satirical office comedy about successful good guy, Ted,
who runs research and development at the morally questionable Veridian Dynamics.
No achievement is too far-fetched and no invention too unorthodox for Veridian.
Ted's a single dad to a seven-year-old girl, and he loves his job, but he's starting
to take a closer look at the company's extremely dubious practices. Do you manufacture
the best teeth whitener ever if it could also kill off all of the planet's fish?
Probably not, but...
Ted's also fighting an attraction to co-worker Linda, who enjoys small acts of rebellion
against Veridian (she's secretly stealing and hoarding all the company's creamer packets).
But he holds back about his true feelings. He's already had his self imposed "one office
affair" with überboss Veronica. Incredibly beautiful (if seemingly devoid of conscience
and also emotion-free), Veronica lets nothing get in her way when it comes to serving
Veridian's needs... even if it means doing something like cryogenically freezing an
employee for testing purposes. And after all, the employee, research scientist Phil,
survived (after he thawed out). So what if he screams like an eagle at the slightest
provocation? He and his best friend, fellow research scientist Lem, are both geniuses
and when they're not bickering, they're responsible for many of
Veridian's miracles of weird science. Click on the image above to purchase season one on DVD!
