Ted's Mom & Sunny Star: A Surprising Connection

Peacock's original sitcom "Ted" features Alanna Ubach as the loving, though naive, mother Susan Bennett. Ubach's performance in the series, which explores the early life of the titular talking teddy bear and his best friend John Bennett, follows a notable guest appearance on the FX sitcom "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia."

In the Season 7 premiere episode, "Frank's Pretty Woman," Ubach played Roxy, a sex worker who captured Frank Reynolds' affection. Frank became so smitten that he decided to propose to her, prompting Dee Reynolds to attempt to refine Roxy's appearance for broader societal acceptance.

Meanwhile, Charlie Kelly harbored suspicions about Roxy's intentions, believing her to be a gold digger. He actively sought to introduce Frank to someone who would value him for reasons other than his wealth.
