this is THE episode
monte-hayward21 April 2018
If you can only watch 1 episode, make it this one. It stands well on its own, and illustrates how a Unabomber is forged by experiences. How dastardly that his psyche was broken down at age 16 by an infamous government experiment!

I'm tempted to show this episode to others without context. What would they think of the protagonist if they did not know his name?

This episode sticks
guiservidoni18 August 2019
Sticks to the point it'll make you question your life for at least a week. The series could've ended there and it'd be magnificent, there's so much in here about a single character it's both impressive and astonishing. Watch this, please.

This one hit way too close to home, aside from the whole serial bombing thing.

This episode likely hits a lot of lonely people really hard, because I know it hit me.

This is the best TV episode in the modern TV history.

This will stay with me for a very long time.

Makes you reevaluate a lot of things in your life.

Whoever is reading this, hope you are alright.

Heartbreaking and amazing
simon_trenfield29 September 2019
Truly gripped by this episode. I did not move from start to finish, just absorbed. Everyone has a story... good or bad.

This one episode deserves a EMMI.

Authoritative Production of a Pscyho-Drama
SpartacusSuperBowl22 November 2020
A tremendously-persuasive use of the production capabilities of limited-series television. "Ted" immerses us in the psycho-drama of an overly-intelligent teen-aged outsider who is spotted, groomed, and doomed by the military-industrial complex on Harvard's campus during the Cold-War era. The combination of letter-written voice-over with live-action representation combines the meditative depth of literature with the visceral thrill of great cinema. A compelling deep dive into the horrific world of the character who is the target of the "Manhunt" of the whole season.

Episode 6
bobcobb30123 September 2017
Warning: Spoilers
This Ted-centric episode felt like more of an extended backstory from a Criminal Minds program. It was good, but we would have been better served splitting between these flashbacks and some stuff with the FBI in the present.

I am not exactly a polyhistor on the subject of the Unabomber, but it feels like they took some creative liberties to make him almost a sympathetic figure tonight. That was a mistake.

Full character revelation!

Warning: Spoilers
The episode I was waiting for. It is not of course a justification, only a full picture on what he went through in his life, especially with people close to him.

Me or IMDB???
wandernn1-81-68327427 August 2021
Army of God???

You might be a redneck???

Okay this ep. Is not meshing up at all. Are there 2 series with the exact same title and IMDB has this mixed up?

Or is it just me that has them mixed up???
