Warning: Freakin' spoilers!
Ted should feel like Family Guy, but it doesn't. Ted should come across as a teddy bear replacement for Peter Griffin, but he doesn't. The film feels new and fresh - an original take on tired ideas. And now that CGI characters are everywhere we turn, advertising cereal and toothpaste, it's easy to forget that films like this are masterpieces - Ted is utterly convincing. He interacts with everything around him and he's a real life, talking, drug taking, binge drinking teddy bear. That's just the way it is. Get used to it.
