I'm going to preface with this has spoilers for the Ted Lasso Christmas ep so as to not make anyone upset...and bear with me it's a bit long.🎄

I have a lot of feelings and I'm not sure they'll be coherent but here we go...(It's also 2:30am here in NY...)

1. The Secret Santa: loved it and thought it was such a Ted thing to do. Also, is that not common outside of the US?

2. Rebecca being the only one in the office to pick up on Ted’s sadness when talking about Henry...understanding that his cheeriness was a cover (because how often during her marriage had she done the same thing?)! I felt like in that moment, she KNEW what she had to do. I also loved this softer side of her and the time she spent with Ted. So, so much.

3. Love Sexy Chrismas, but love little Roy/Pheobe/Keeley family time, more! Also LOVED the Love Actually moment. Fucking Bernard.

4. Rebecca delivering presents to children on Christmas day!!!!!!!! It's canon in my mind she did this because Rupert was a POS and didn't want children. Ugh. My heart.

5. The Higgins family...thinking Sam would be the only one to show and then being okay if it was just Dani, Richard, and Zoreaux....but then the rest of them show!! I think its not just a testament to what Ted's done with the team but also how the rest of them (see: Higgins, and Rebecca, and Keeley) have come to create this found family. I know Higgins says they've done it every year, but they've only gotten 2 at most. Here, there was 8+! That's something special. And loved that they shared their family traditions and invited the team to bring some of their own.

6. "You look perfect." I died. (Side note: Rebecca in jeans is a mood and I am not okay).

7. The teasing: "...drinking and plotting horrible things." "Oh, yea? Like what?" ::turns to Ted, soft smile:: "...I wanted to make sure you're okay." "Yea, well I am now." NOW.

8. The It's a Wonderful Life scene. This. Jason talks about "angel moments" (I'm sure someone can find it...) he mentioned it in regards to the rickshaw at the gala when Ted and Rebecca are outside...these moments where angels find us, especially when we need them most. Ted, after face timing with Henry, and experiencing what is likely the first Christnas without his son, is watching It's a Wonderful Life. The scene we see is George Bailey at the bridge, getting ready to jump. The unhappiness, self doubt, loneliness, uncertainty is at its peak...and then Clarence, an actual angel appears. It's this MOMENT that REBECCA throws the rocks at his window (adorable and every 80s/90s rom com came to mind). She is his Clarence. THIS is an angel moment. Most people think Clarence shows George how good his life is, but what the angel really does is show the impact George had on the small town of Bedford Falls. We've already seen bits of Ted questioning himself and what he's done at Richmond through the introduction of Doc-tor Sharon. Here, in THIS MOMENT, Rebecca reminds Ted he's not alone, she shows him the differences he's made in Richmond, in her and in the end, the LAST thing they do is go to where the rest of their family is...all together, at the Higgins home. It's that end scene of It's a Wonderful Life...all of Bedford Falls in George's home. Returning the love and kindness he's given to them. It's here we see the work Ted's done, and the work every single one of those characters has done, too. God. I loved this episode.

9. The SINGING!! I need Hannah to drop a Christmas album ASAP. Ma'am. PLEASE. Also adored how she held the mic and had Ted sing. The two idiots. (NOW KISS!)

Okay. To bed. (Also please add your thoughts!)
