THEY’RE PUTTING COMEDY TO WORK.


SEASON ONE

Critically-Acclaimed, Hit Series Arrives On DVD
December 1 From Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment

“The most original sitcom to come along in a while.”
Entertainment Weekly

LOS ANGELES, CA – (October 9, 2009) – Whether it’s convincing an employee to be cryogenically frozen or overseeing the creation of a lab grown cow-less meat, it’s all in a day’s work when scientists from Veridian Dynamics try to make the impossible possible in TV’s hottest satire, “Better Off Ted” Season One, debuts on DVD December 1 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.

From the mind of Victor Fresco, the creator of the cult hit “Andy Richter Controls the Universe,” “Better Off Ted” has a “first-rate cast” (USA Today) including Jay Harrington (“Private Practice”), Portia DeRossi (“Ally McBeal”), and Andrea Anders (“Joey”). As head of research and development at Veridian Dynamics, good guy Ted Crisp (Harrington) leads a quirky team of the world’s smartest scientists on a mission to make the impossible possible. From cow-less meat to deadly pumpkins, no project is too bizarre, or too unethical, as long as it’s profitable. Working to appease his beautiful boss (DeRossi), Ted struggles occasionally with his conscience — and his attraction to a comely co-worker (Anders) — but it’s all in a day’s work when you’re Better Off Ted.

The “Better Off Ted” Season One. The DVD includes all 13 hilarious episodes and will be available for a suggested retail price of $29.98 U.S./ $37.98 Canada. The pre-book date is November 4.
