* After El Camino released, AMC produced [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5hU56vJewo a short]] of Todd making the snowglobe of him and Lydia that Casey observes in his apartment. It features him awkwardly trying to ''ask her out on a date'' over voicemail while he's making the thing. Lydia then picks up, Todd claims that it's nothing important, and she hangs up. CringeComedy featuring two of the show's coldest characters. The choice of music helps sell it.
