Is this a tabloid speculation? No, it’s eyewitness testimony from anyone who watched the latest episode of the popular sci-fi show.
After the funeral of a buddy, our heroes go to a bar to lift their spirits. They drink Bud ™, lots of it. The camera gets closeups of the product. Then they talk about how their departed friend loved the brand, buying “three cases” of it once.
“It’s just like it was back then.” the characters say. Not a bad themeline for The King of Beers ™, is it?
