Why Better Off Ted might be annoying:

    It seemed like ABC tried to kill the series with weird scheduling.
    The first season ran during an unorthodox schedule (March 18, 2009-August 11, 2009).
    The second season received almost zero promotion and received low ratings.
    Only 11 shows of the second season were aired in an arc when the series returned December 8, 2009.
    With 2 shows still unaired, ABC refused to confirm or deny if it would return.

Why Better Off Ted might not be annoying:

    It is shot in single-camera style.
    It was brought back for a second season, although most thought it was canceled.
    It received critical acclaim.
    The humor is based on being unethical and covering up situations to keep profits up.
    Veridian company motto is 'Money before People.'
    In March 2010, the creators asked the public to help keep the show on the air.
    Even though the show was yet to be canceled, many of its stars were offered roles in new TV series.
