Introduced in the episode, "The New Kid," Ted is a peer of Daria and Jane at Lawndale High.

Despite this, the character would almost never reappear in the series again, conspicuously absent from all subsequent class scenes and all season five episodes. Therefore, it is not entirely clear whether he was in the same grade as Daria.

Episodes

Ted is present in the following episodes:

  • 207 - The New Kid - He makes his appearance in this episode, where he is one of the main characters.
  • 406 - I Loathe a Parade - appears photographing Daria and Tom and has a brief talking line.

Family and home

Ted's parents are Leslie DeWitt and Grant Clinton. It is unknown if he has any siblings. They live in a two-story house in Lawndale.

Ted's parents vocally claim a dislike for modern society and its 'offerings'. Their house is equipped with solar panels. They plant corn, squash and beans in the front and back yards. They don't drink coffee or alcohol and do not watch television. They hate the Beatles and gum and despise Greenpeace. Ted and his father have made a wooden couch, carved from a whole tree, and built a phonograph from scratch.

Personality and Intrests

By his own admission, Ted had a very sheltered childhood, including being home-schooled, prior to asking his parents to change to a public school. Because of this, he is portrayed as being naïve and unaware of the realities of school and normal teenage life in Lawndale.

Despite this he has a number of cultural interests: he is interested in Viola de Gamba (The New Kid) as well as photography, having worked for the school yearbook (The New Kid, I Loathe a Parade). He also knows how to make jewelry, has taught himself to fight with swords, and has practiced isometric exercises, which he can use in self defense (The New Kid).

Fanficton

Ted is usually displayed as a naïve and sweet young man in facfiction. Because of these characteristics, he has been popularity paired with Stacy Rowe as her love interest, since they seemingly share the same sweet disposition.
