"Amidst a flurry of renewals tonight comes word from multiple sources that ABC has axed the Alyssa Milano-headlined freshman comedy Romantically Challenged. In less surprising news, the Alphabet net has also canceled Better Off Ted, Scrubs, and FlashForward. An ABC spokesperson had no comment."

Goodbye Ted, it was great for a while, but no one seemed to care.

Their loss. Now ours.

Signa...? No, we use Chip and PIN now.

I "Officially" hate ABC! What kind of world do we live in where dreck like Cougar Town continues to pollute the airwaves while a truly innovative, intelligent, and funny as hell show like Better Off Ted gets cancelled? They didn't even give the show a fighting chance to find an audience. This sucks so much.

They were extremely stupid not to play this show on Wednesday nights. Everyone knew Scrubs was dead in the water, so BOT's ratings were obviously not going to be that high. I just pray that we'll get a Season 2 DVD.

I have been harboring ambitions of becoming more pirate-like!

I hate ABC right now. Just when they started getting a lot of good shows back they have to go and cancel them. D:

I was LOADED okay!!!!!

I never heard about this show before I heard it was canceled. So I watched an episode to see what ppl got so upset about and now I'm upset that it's canceled too!!

What total retards, Better Off Ted was the funniest show recently on television, those executive directors should get canned and the show should be moved to another network.

One of the best comedies in years. Everyone I turned onto this show really loved it. ABC really needs to market their shows better. I'm really sorry to see it go.

Better Off Ted is the only current(well, formerly current) comedy that makes me actually laugh and enjoy myself the entire time I'm watching.

They did the same thing with Carpoolers, 13 episodes and it was done at least we got 20+ with Ted. There is a long list of shows from ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox networks over the past 5 years that got axed before they had a chance to get rolling.

Right now Amazon VOD has both seasons of Better off Ted available if anyone is interested. The last two un-aired episodes don't seem to be available yet.
