- In this final episode Becker takes a couple of pot-shots at itself. First, Becker complains about a female patient, saying "I pity the poor bastard married to her". The actress is Danson's real life wife Mary Steenburgen. Next he talks about the Nielsen ratings, mentioning that they are not so bad—Becker was put on hiatus last season for low ratings, and is now ending for the same reason. edit »
