Get ready to reunite with everyone’s favorite foul-mouthed cuddly bear — because Ted is back for Season 2, premiering on March 5, 2026, exclusively on Peacock. All eight episodes will drop at once, so you can binge the entire season in one go.
📖 Plot — Senior Year Chaos in the ’90s
Ted Season 2 picks up in 1994, following the uproarious antics of the beloved talking teddy bear Ted and his best friend John Bennett as they enter senior year of high school in Framingham, Massachusetts. The prequel series — set years before the original Ted films — continues the duo’s slapstick, R-rated misadventures as John navigates the chaos of teenage life while Ted provides the worst possible guidance with the biggest heart.
Life in the Bennett household remains a source of comedic tension:
- Matty Bennett is the tough, old-school dad who clashes with his outspoken niece.
- Susan Bennett, the sweet but weary mom, tries to keep the peace.
- Blaire, John’s liberal cousin, pushes boundaries and ruffles feathers.
Expect plenty of hijinks blending ’90s nostalgia, friendship drama, outrageous jokes, and moments that balance the absurd with heart.

The Season 2 cast features the returning team that brought Season 1 to life:
