New comedy series, Ted: The Animated Series, premieres on Thursday, December 17 with back-to-back episodes at 9 and 9:30 p.m. ET. on Showcase and STACKTV.

Seth MacFarlane (Family Guy, American Dad!, The Orville) is set to reprise the voice of the iconic and loveable, foul-mouthed teddy bear “Ted”, and will also executive produce all episodes alongside executive producers/co-showrunners Paul Corrigan and Brad Walsh (Modern Family), who also executive produced the live-action series Ted.

Ted: The Animated Series picks up after the Ted films and sees the return of original film franchise stars as series regulars to voice their roles including Mark Wahlberg (The Union, The Family Plan) as “John”, Amanda Seyfried (Long Bright River, The Dropout) as “Sam” and Jessica Barth (Ted & Ted 2) as “Tami-Lynn”. Additional series regulars include: Kyle Mooney (Y2K, Saturday Night Live) as “Apollo” and Liz Richman (Little America, Ted) as “Ruth”.
