| SuperTed | comment |
SuperTed (1982-1986, 1989-1990) was a Welsh animated series, about the adventures of a discarded teddy bear brought to life by an alien called Spotty and given magic powers by Mother Nature. He becomes SuperTed and, along with Spotty as his sidekick, he must save the world from various enemies, most commonly the nemesis trio of Texas Pete and his henchmen, Bulk and Skeleton.An American version was made by Hanna-Barbera as part of their Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera block which also featured Fantastic Max, another show from creator Mike Young. A reboot is planned to air in 2016. | |

Ambiguous Innocence | |
| SuperTed / int_149605c1 | comment |
Ambiguous Innocence: Bulk. He generally acts quite docile and pleasant, and doesn't really seem to realise that what he and Texas Pete do is evil. On the other hand, he was in prison before he and Texas Pete met, and even if he didn't seem to realize that prison was a bad place to be in, he had to have done something to get put there. When one considers his implied Super Strength, it can get kind of creepy thinking about how he did end up there... | |

The Drag-Along | |
| SuperTed / int_3166227d | comment |
The Drag-Along: Skeleton, in a very rare villainous example; he's literally only with Texas Pete's group because Pete and Bulk stumbled into his tomb whilst escaping from prison together, woke him up, and Pete decided to drag him along. | |

Sensitive Guy and Manly Man | |
| SuperTed / int_43dc74d0 | comment |
Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: SuperTed is the manly to Spotty's sensitive dad Superted is a no nonsense hero committed to protecting the universe and Spotty is more aloof and immature Texas Pete is the manly man to Bulk and Skeleton's sensitive guys. Texas Pete is the stereotypical villainous cowboy who leads the trio while Bulk is bumbling and idiotic and Skeleton is very camp and flamboyant. | |

| SuperTed / int_5963b221 | comment |
Eviler Than Thou: Texas Pete felt the trope when he became Public Enemy Number Two instead of One. He wasn't too pleased to find out his ranking suffered even more because he helped Ted put the other villain in jail. | |

| SuperTed / int_5989e3b6 | comment |
Enemy Mine: In the episode where Texas Pete was declared Public Enemy Number One, he lost the title to an intergalactic villain and became Public Enemy Number Two. Wanting to get rid of competition, Pete helped SuperTed to capture him. The result was that Pete became Public Enemy Number Thirty Three. | |

WidgetSeries | |
| SuperTed / int_b4f5a440 | comment |
Widget Series: It's a weird Welsh thing—the main reason why SuperTed was made was because Mike Young's son had a phobia of the dark. To put this in perspective, in the American revival series, SuperTed visited a barbaring-obsessed Space Roman alien world. In the Welsh original series, he repeatedly matches wits with an evil cowboy, a childlike super-strong fat idiot, and a milquetoast skeleton. | |

Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: SuperTed is always pitted against the woefully incompetent Texas Pete, Bulk, and Skeleton (who is an actual skeleton woken from his sleep in the first episode). Only Pete is even remotely threatening; the other two appear to be along for the ride. | |
