I genuinely love how Rebecca Rick Rolls the funeral, not for the comedy, but because of what it symbolizes. She had told her mom that she hated her, but in the moment, she remembered that her mom said the song makes her feel happy so she chose to use that time to do something to try to make her mom happy. And, in doing so, she’s telling her mom that she loves her.

Anyone trying to make Nikki feel bad is a monster.

Oh Nikki!! I wish I could give you a hug. 🫶🏻 I, too, end up telling people when they hurt me and unfortunately, most of the time, that was their goal. I agree that good people don’t intentionally make others feel like shit and I’m sorry if anyone has made you feel that way.

A lot of people hate this season, but honestly, it's probably the best in terms of character arch and development. It's an emotional rollercoaster, but man, it gives us so much insight to so many characters. We learn why Ted is the way he is. "I promised I wasn't going to let anyone get by me without knowing they might be hurting." (not the exact quote but still) Oof, that's a lot and it means so much. And then everything with Rebecca... we know less about her father than we knew about Ted's but in the end, it made so much sense. She ended up with someone like her father. She became her mother by staying with Rupert as long as she did, and that's why she did what she did. Also, the fact that Ted and Rebecca both experienced something traumatic with their father's on the same day, in the same year is insane. The universe really brought them together for good reason. I could go on, but I will spare you. This episode won a few Emmy's and for good reason. It's one of the top in the series. Ps. if you want to know more about this episode, Hannah Waddingham shares a great story about why filming this particular storyline was difficult for her.

I feel like every single one of us wanted to give Nikki a virtual hug at that moment. Only remarkably shitty people go out of their way to make good, and even just decent, people feel like trash. (I'm not mad about making shitty people understand how shitty they are, however.)

Ted's story also brings it back to the third episode of the series, when he's sitting down with Trent Crimm at the Indian restaurant and says, "And it ain't easy, but neither is growing up without someone believing in you." Such great, layered storytelling that, at that moment, we have no reason to believe he's talking about how hard it was for him to grow up without his dad there to support him.

Coming back to add: Now, that I watched the rest of your discussion, yes, agreed about Rebecca and Sam. They are at two completely different points in their lives. Not to mention, the power dynamics. The age gap doesn't bother me so much... I mean look at Rupert and Bex. But yes, the press would have a field day dragging Rebecca through the mud (again), and Sam would get all the praise. And then there's the racial aspect. Like America, England is very racist, so that would also cause an issue (even though it shouldn't). It would just be a nightmare for them both. I do think it was just a meant to be a nice fling. They had fun and both genuinely liked each other. Sam reminded Rebecca that she's still desireable and can be loved by someone good. But I don't believe they would ever work long-term.

Victoria Brewer

Oh man, I've never caught that. Thank you for pointing it out. The callbacks in this show are unmatched!

VillainHoor

Me either!! Shitty people are fair game. I’m not going to go out of my way to drag them but if i witness something, imma light their ass up!! 🫶🏻

I’m not sure how ANYONE could hate this season. I’m not overly fond of the Beard episode but I don’t hate it. This season is where we get so much payoff for the seeds planted in the first season. I love it.

Sarah Rosa

Did y’all notice Ted has the picture of him and Nate that was given to him on Christmas at his house??🥺

Sarah Rosa

AWWW NIKKI🥺❤️ she is too good for this world

Jessi

Nikki, you're exactly right! The Beard episode was totally a buffer between two really emotional episodes. LOVE watching this with you two!

I'm sorry I keep saying this but sharing these feelings with Y'all that this EPIC show pulls out of a person is truly amazing!! I have watched this episode four times in the last week and that is on top of the other four times I rewatched the complete series and it hits just as hard each time in every emotion that we felt! Each episode sets up the next perfectly, each season sets up the next for a reason. Steven, you are exactly right about the Beard episode, it is better understand in the compilation. This episode is so perfectly done, well written, and bravo for the editing!!!!! The switch back between Ted and Rebecca when they are sharing their greatest tragedies was truly heartbreaking and brilliantly done. The scene of the girl talk in the church was awesome, as a very straight guy, I so wanted so bad to be in that moment with them!!!! The beauty of being able to tell those you love and care for exactly how you feel and everything still being ok with everyone.......if only all our real World's could be that way. I am so glad you also caught the little conversation between Rupert and Nate......!!!!!!! The Rick Astley song fits perfectly and the lyrics really hit home for all the characters and for the audience that is privileged to watch! The pacing of the show and how each segment fits so perfectly really speaks volumes of the love and passion the whole cast and crew must of had putting this together for us...........it makes me sad to think we only have fourteen episodes to go.

When you said that this episode felt like the natural followup to Man City, that's because it is. Literally. The writers (Sudeikis, Hunt, and Goldstein AKA Ted, Beard, and Roy) wrote this to be the 8th episode of a 10 episode season, with Man City as the 7th episode of that season. The Christmas episode and the Beard episode got thrown into the middle of a story that was already completely written out and ready to go into filming, which is why those two episodes both feel detached from the main storylines of the season. If you watch the whole season but skip those two episodes, it feels like a more natural episode flow, because everything that happens in this episode you were supposed to see immediately after the Man City episode, before the two added filler episodes got thrown in.

This is a great episode and your reaction was great. I thought that back and forth scene with Rebecca and Ted was shot and acted incredibly well. I'm conflicted about if I think Keeley should tell Roy what Jamie said, with how Roy reacts to things, with the issues he already has with Jamie and the fact that he's Jamie's coach. It could cause a lot of problems for the team and could be a pretty bad situation.

I think Beard flipping Ted the “bird” was him being cheeky, not angry. Ted saying “Bird by Bird” and he gave him one. I’m still not sure thr relevance of bird by bird. Ted has said it twice at this point. If anyone knows the meaning of that quote, I’d love to know. :)

Christina Bobina

This episode is very emotional, and I believe Beards episode was a pause .. that’s a lot of emotion to deal with. Plus.. in the day of “binge watching” , if someone watched all three together, it wouldn’t seem so odd. I didn’t watch the show until after season 2 ended, so the first two season I binged, at least a couple to 3 episodes at a time. Doing that, it really made sense. Watching it as they’re aired would be would be frustrating, until you got to this one. I started to say more in that episodes comments but I didn’t want to mention what this episode was going to be like. One thing I love about this episode, as sad and emotional this episode is, it is also extremely funny. They balance that well. Like a good roller coaster. Thé laughter helps keep it a bit lighter.

Christina Bobina

True, but I do think they found the right spot for Beard’s episode.

BrandyLu

I think it’s from a book titled Bird by Bird. It means take it one small step at a time. In the book the authors brother is struggling to write a report on birds and I think the dad tells him to just take it bird by bird.

No one can "make" you feel like shit unless you let them. Don't accept their premise. Do not accept their opinions.
