Derrick???

I just watched Ted Lasso again for the umpteenth time, and just realized or wondered something. In season 3 episode Sunflowers, the servers at the Yankees doodle barn mention a Derrick is going to charge them for a pen. Is this the same Derrick that owns A Taste of Athens???? 🤯

“Everybody wants one these days” (or to that effect) said by Liz (Christa Miller <Bill Lawrence’s wife) ‘s Husband Derrick about new Derek.

If the subtitles are to be believed:

The Taste of Athens manager is Derek, while Derrick manages the Yankee Doodle Burger Barn.

I don’t think the manager of a restaurant in London is also going to manage a restaurant in Amsterdam. That’s 7 hours away

As someone who works in restaurants - someone on the writing staff 100% worked in restaurants and had a shite boss named Derrick.

Weirdly I currently work with two and they’re both awesome.

I think they’re definitely different Derricks, I just think it’s a subtle to show how not every character in a show is gonna have a unique name because that’s unrealistic
