WATCH TV SERIES ONLINE


One of the best ways to learn English. Plenty of TV series, subtitles,.... And if they are speaking too fast, you can play the videos at a slower speed. Isn't it amazing!

I've been checking the series they offer and I've come across one I didn't know: Better Off Ted. It turns out that it is a satirical comedy and pretty good it is. I've just watched the first 3 minutes of the pilot episode and I found it hilarious. They are trying to find a way to turn pumpkins into weapons (because there is a country with whom they do business that grows a great deal of pumpkins and would welcome additional uses for them... as well as cheaper ways to kill their enemies).

The critical reception of this TV series was very positive. It only lasted for two seasons, though.
