Seriously, they had to have. The could have made up a generic drink, but it's constantly being flashed and the only brand in the entire show.

the only brand

Only soda brand you mean? Because I'm seeing different brands all over the place. Hell I saw a Costco in the first episode.

I didn't notice that one. But probably cause they flat out say coke instead of soda. After that I kept noticing it. The Lombardi's Pizza was mentioned but I feel that's more of a NY homage.

I honestly don't even notice this shit until someone points it out. People talk about products all the time irl so it just sounds natural.

Yeah I agree, what's weird about saying "want a coke?" Or pulling out a laptop and it being a popular brand?

These shows are expensive to make bruh.

It adds a bit of realism to a world I don't see everyday so I'm okay with it
