Entertainment Weekly, Zap2It and TVJots have all posted new interviews with Portia's co-star Jay Harrington who plays Ted on Better Off Ted. In the interviews, he discusses the show's return, Portia's upcoming storylines and what's happening with Season Two.

What about the other characters? What sorts of things will we see with them?
We'll get a chance to see some of Veronica's personal life. I'll give you a little teaser on this: We have a technology that's like Google except with face recognition. If you scan a picture of somebody, it picks up where their face may or may not have been over the course of their past. So we find a side-job/second-life Veronica has been living, and it's really funny.

People who haven't watched yet haven't missed too much, right? Why should they start watching now?
They can start right now. They haven't missed to much in terms of back story, and it's an inherently inviting show. With the show breaking the fourth wall, you're invited right in. I'm talking right to you. There's something inviting and comforting about that.

What sorts of things will we be seeing in the six new episodes?
We get a chance to see a little bit of Portia's dual life. We develop a technology that scans photos -- instead of finding text like Google does, it's more of facial recognition. So anything that's been on the Internet forever comes up. We use her as an example in the meeting and we find a peculiar position, sort of a moonlighting gig that she's been doing. [Laughs] It's not as nefarious as it sounds. It's more of a relationship she may or may not have had with a magician. So we get to see a different side of Portia's character, which is nice.

Are there any particularly strong moments that stick out in your mind?
I haven't seen them. ... I'm just really looking forward to the stuff that Portia did, because it gave us an opportunity to interact as Ted and Veronica outside the office, and we see her vulnerability a little bit. I think that will play really funny. I think I'm looking forward to that the most.

I know some of the episodes have aired out of order, so will we get a proper finale?
I think they are going a little out of order, but the 12th episode [that airs] will be the true 12th. ... The nature of the show, though, for those who haven't watched yet, they won't feel like they missed something and they can't tune in. They can be out of order, because the storylines don't necessarily stream from week to week.

Do you know anything about season two yet?
I really don't. I went by the offices and met a couple of new writers. I don't know what they have in store.

I don’t know if work on the second season of Better Off Ted has started yet, but are you aware of any upcoming changes or developments that you can share?

I wish I could. We don’t shoot until August. I went to see the writers the other day. They just began breaking story ideas, so there’s really nothing there.
