On the podcast this week Screen Verdict reviews the Seth MacFarlane comedy Ted starring Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis. Matt and Jonathan take a look at how Ted came to be alive, what it's like to be part human, part animal, part object and why we believe Ted to be a generous lover.

Jonathan also shares some Flash Gordon trivia he learned watching the film and Matt takes a page out of Mark Wahlberg's book and tries to break up with a friend via the aquarium on the podcast.

Lastly we provide a Screen Verdict rating for the film and bring up a Screen Verdict first in our Bat-mania housekeeping segment.
