WWE Featured In Ted Season 2 on Peacock
WWE and Bret Hart got a small shout-out during a new episode of Ted.
Peacock recently premiered the second season of Ted, the show about a boy and his foul-mouthed teddy bear, which is a prequel/spinoff of the two successful movies. The seventh episode of season two, “Susan Is the New Black,” sees Matty Bennett (Scott Grimes) sitting at home watching TV and drinking a beer.
The TV set shows footage of Bret Hart vs. Yokozuna at WWE WrestleMania X, which took place in 1994, the period in which the series is set. Matty, portrayed as a stereotypical racist Catholic in the Boston suburbs, then yells at the TV:
“You can’t do that to Bret Hart, you big, fat foreigner!”
Putting aside the fact that Bret Hart is Canadian (making him a foreigner to the United States, too), this is hardly the most offensive thing Matty says in the series, let alone the same episode. Another scene shows the Bennett family discussing potential dinner options when John Bennett (Max Burkholder) asks for breakfast for dinner.
Matty tells him “no f*ckin’ way,” then launches into an offensive tirade about why eating eggs after noon is gay, how gays invented brunch, and the “official” cut-off time for eggs is 11 am.

Will Ted return for Season 3?
All episodes of Ted season two are streaming now on Peacock.
Despite the popularity of the series, creator Seth McFarlane told The Wrap that there is no plan to do a third season of Ted. According to MacFarlane, the show is just too expensive too make, citing the cost of CGI involved in each episode.
“What I kept hearing [from Peacock and Universal] was, ‘Listen, the show is really expensive to produce, and there’s no way to do it at a lower cost,” MacFarlane told TheWrap (via Entertainment Weekly). “So I said, ‘All right, I hear you loud and clear.'”
“I wrote the last scene with Max walking into a gym, presumably coming out as Mark Wahlberg in the first Ted film,” MacFarlane added. “So [showrunners] Brad Walsh and Paul Corrigan and I kind of painted ourselves into a corner. Is there a way to do it? There’s always a way to do anything. But at the moment, it might take some narrative acrobatics. There’s no plan that I’ve heard of at the moment to do season 3.”
