This doesn't look good:

Better Off Ted is an upcoming American situation comedy which will premiere on 
the ABC network on Wednesday, March 18, 2009 at 8:30PM. The series was created, 
and will be executive produced, by Victor Fresco.

Plot


    "Better Off Ted is a satirical office comedy featuring a successful but 
    morally conscious man, Ted, who runs a research and development department 
    at a morally questionable corporation, Veridian Technologies. No achievement
    is too far fetched and no invention too unorthodox for Veridian. Need a 
    suicidal turkey? Done. Need a metal that is hard as steel but bounces - and 
    is edible? Done and done. Ted loves his seemingly perfect job; he loves his 
    superhuman boss, Veronica, and colleagues Lem, Phil and Linda, but he's 
    starting to take a closer look at the company's extremely questionable 
    practices... especially when they try to cryogenically freeze one of Ted's 
    scientists for testing purposes."

accidental -- but not permanent. We will continuously jettison our obsolescence 
and grow younger." F.M. Esfandiary, "Up-Wing Priorities" (1981).
