[This story contains minor spoilers for “Big Week,” the fourth episode of Ted Lasso’s third season.]
During the April 5 episode of Ted Lasso, Coach Beard (Brendan Hunt) holds a copy of Grant Wahl’s book The Beckham Experiment, about the soccer superstar’s decision to jump from top European leagues to the L.A. Galaxy of Major League Soccer in the United States. At the time the scene was filmed, it was intended as an Easter egg, as most of Beard’s reading choices have been (earlier in the season, he and Ted (Jason Sudeikis) thumbed through the football strategy book Inverting the Pyramid).
By the time the episode debuted on Apple TV+, however, the nod to Wahl had turned into into a tribute. Wahl died of an aortic aneurysm while covering the 2022 men’s World Cup in Qatar, and the show dedicated the episode, “Big Week,” to him with a title card in the closing credits.

We have tried -- Mrs. Tater and I -- over the years to readjust the thinking of everyone we know regarding Christmas. Please don't give us anything, we've urged, nay, implored the relatives. Let's just get together and go out to dinner and spend a couple hours together and laugh and stuff and split the check and wish each other well and merry and go home happy. This would not apply to the young'uns, who still get their money etc., just to the supposed adults.
I say supposed because, despite our many entreaties, we have failed miserably. Which is to say, they have failed us miserably.
Every year we beg, "Please don't get us anything, we don't need anything, please."
Nevertheless, most adult factions of the extended Tater universe insist on plying us with gifts, to the point we have pretty much given up on our vision of our version of Christmas.
