During the Stanley Cup in 2019, the favorite favorite pair from The Office, Jim and Pam, were at odds when the stars John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer encouraged their respective home teams, the Boston Bruins and St. Louis Blues. Their friendly competition led to some of the best online games of the year, including Krasinski who attended a game with David Denman, the actor who played the former fiancée Roy of Pam.

Of course, the HBO series may not have had a winning end, but the meme game was strong during the last season of the show.

When Disney + was launched in November, it also led to the attack of incoming Baby Yoda memes with its original series The Mandalorian. We are still not quite sure what this creature is, but the cute and innocent appearance has given way to hilarious memes that even non-viewers can appreciate.
Fakeout break
Not long after a Breaking Bad movie was revealed, Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul started bullying fans with timed messages on social media, sharing the same cryptic messages on both their accounts on different platforms. In the end, their teasing messages were actually a creative marketing gimmick for their own Mezcal, Dos Hombres brand.
