A Thanksgiving Episode is a story or an episode within a larger series that focuses on the holiday of Thanksgiving, celebrated in the United States on the fourth Thursday of November (which may or may not be the last Thursday in November). Canada celebrates Thanksgiving as well, and in pretty much the same manner as Americans, with one of the main exceptions being that Canadians celebrate the holiday on the second Monday in October. Thanksgiving also exists on other dates in other countries. Thanksgiving stories fall into two basic categories. The first category consists of stories that relate to the origin of the holiday. Traditionally, the holiday is dated back to a feast given in 1621 by Pilgrims of the Plymouth colony in Massachusetts to offer thanks to God for their survival past the first harsh year of the settlement. They invited the local Wampanoag tribe, who had been key to that survival, to share the feast with them—whence the familiar Thanksgiving iconography of steeple-crowned and bonneted Pilgrims alongside buckskin-clad Native Americans. Optimistic portrayals focus on the event as a time of inter-cultural cooperation and celebration. More cynical portrayals will place more emphasis on the long-term negative effect of European colonization in displacing the Native Americans. The second category is stories that revolve around the celebration of the holiday in latter years. As with Christmas, Thanksgiving stories tend to be very family oriented, with characters either going to visit relatives or hosting large gatherings of the extended family. Such gatherings are generally intended to be joyous times of celebration, but can also be times of tension and internal family conflict. Often groups will take time to help those less fortunate than themselves. The major focus of the holiday is on the Thanksgiving meal, which traditionally includes turkey, potatoes, pies, cranberry sauce, yams, and various vegetables. Preparing the turkey is a big deal, and an inexperienced cook seeking to prove themself by cooking a perfect meal will often find themselves making various amusing blunders. Even experienced cooks will find themselves challenged by the expectations placed upon them. Health minded cooks may try to create healthier alternatives to the traditional fare, which will almost certainly not be well received. Other activities include the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, watching marathons of TV shows, and watching or even playing American football. If one of the characters is a cartoonist who is Famed In-Story, they might have the honor of their character being a balloon in the Macy's parade. The main character(s) of a pre-established Show Within a Show may also be balloons in the parade. Thanksgiving stories will often muse on the true meaning of the holiday — family, thankfulness, thankfulness for family, etc. — by having characters enjoying each other's company despite stress, interpersonal conflicts, or inedible turkeys. Particularly likely to be the setting of Dinner and a Show. See also Christmas Episode, Halloween Episode, Valentine's Day Episode, St. Patrick's Day Episode, and Easter Episode. |

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air had two, one in the first season and one in the final season. The first season episode, "Talking Turkey," has Will's mother, Vy, visit the Banks family for the holiday and tries to get Will and the Banks children to cook Thanksgiving dinner, worried they aren't being self-sufficient enough. The final season episode, "There's the Rub," is an hour-long special where Hilary and Carlton volunteer at a homeless shelter while Will and Uncle Phil are mistakenly arrested and have to prove their innocence. |

On Gilmore Girls, Lorelei and Rory attend four different Thanksgiving dinners in the episode "A Deep Fried Korean Thanksgiving" (first at the Kims' who are Korean, very religious and Lane is Rory's best friend; then at Sookie and Jackson's — Sookie is Lorelai's best friend; then they eat at Luke's diner — which is their traditional place where they normally eat and also celebrate holidays, and at Lorelei's parents). They bring autumn flowers to everyone. The deep fried part is in reference to the subplot where Jackson gives Sookie (a master chef) the day off from cooking only to have Jackson and some of his friends deep-fry almost everything under the sun. | |

Full House had a Thanksgiving episode in the first season. Danny, Jesse and Joey tried to pull out all the stops to make the first Thanksgiving without Pam as perfect as they can for the girls. Unfortunately, it leads to a burnt turkey, a dropped pumpkin pie and lots of almost-tears (mainly from Jesse, Pam's brother) before the family decides to make the best of what they have and just enjoy being together. | |

Anpanman: episode 209a "Thanksgiving Day with Uncle Jam" centers around the Japanese theme of Thanksgiving (In Japan, it's known as Labor Thanksgiving Day, where it's on paying respect to laborers and those who do their jobs. Unlike North America, Japan's Thaksgiving is always on November 23rd, though it'll be on a Thursday like the American holiday). When both Batako and Miss Mimi's class were puzzled about what they should do for the holiday, they decided to give a party to Uncle Jam as a thank you for his hard work. | |

Riverdale: Season 4’s "The Ice Storm" takes place during Thanksgiving. Naturally, since it’s Riverdale, the titular storm is the least of everyone’s problems: Archie and Veronica host a Thanksgiving dinner for the poor at the Southside community center, but it’s derailed by Hiram, Dodger’s vengeful family and Archie’s attempt to deep fry a turkey. Cheryl and Toni are stalked by the former’s Evil Aunt while attempting to cover up Bedford’s murder. Their solution is to invite her to Thanksgiving dinner and Make her believe that they cooked and served Bedford. They didn’t, but it was a distraction to dump the body in Sweetwater River. Jughead and Betty opt to stay at Stonewall Prep over the Thanksgiving break to investigate Mr. Chipping’s death from the previous episode. Alice, F.P, Hiram and Hermione have Thanksgiving dinner at Pop’s, which ends in a fight and the men coming to blows. |

Brooklyn Nine-Nine: "Thanksgiving": The Nine-Nine's detective squad has the holiday weekend off and Amy invites them all over to her apartment for dinner. Captain Holt's husband is out of town so he gladly joins them. Jake hates Thanksgiving (because of his sad childhood memories) and want to be alone and watch football but is ordered to join his colleagues. He's excited when a theft at the precinct allows him and Holt to step away from dinner to investigate. "Lockdown": It's Thanksgiving and Holt and Terry have to go to a charity event so Jake is left in charge of the precinct for the day while all the other detectives take time off. Boyle accidentally knocks a parcel off the mail trolley and releases a mysterious white powder into the squad room. The precinct is put into lockdown. Lots of references to food and family and things people should be thankful for. "Ava": The episode is set around Thanksgiving, but they all have to work (and it's extra hard because the internet is down), only Terry is going away for a romantic getaway with his very pregnant wife. She's waiting for him at the precinct... and her water breaks. Her doula is away for Thanksgiving and her back-up doula is at another birth. The episode has a Running Gag of Holt interrupting Charles when he tries to say what he's thankful for. "Mr. Santiago": Amy is hosting Thanksgiving dinner for her father (who is meeting her boyfriend Jake for the first time) and her friends from work. Charles is put in charge of food and decides to purchase a live turkey so that he can slaughter and cook it because it will taste best. "Two Turkeys": Jake and Amy invite their parents to bond over Thanksgiving dinner. At the precinct, Captain Holt and Kevin's special Thanksgiving pie is stolen from his office. |

On 3rd Rock from the Sun, Thanksgiving was the aliens' first Earth holiday. The episode also marked the first appearance of Mrs. Dubcek's daughter Vicki, who would became a recurring love interest for Harry. Unaware of Black Friday, Sally mentions in The Tag that tomorrow she will "spend a nice peaceful day at the mall". Sally also hopes another holiday won't sneak up on them but Dick expects they won't have to worry about another one for months, little knowing Christmas is just around the corner... | |

The Middle has a Thanksgiving episode in every single season, nine in total, and often highlight some sort of mishap happening to the Heck family on the holiday, such as Frankie stuck having to work on the holiday because of her boss (Thanksgiving I), the family trying to hold Thanksgiving for two marines only for Frankie's parents to be in the middle of an argument and scare them off (Thanksgiving IV), or the family trying to go to an all-you-can-eat buffet (Thanksgiving VI). Notably, the final Thanksgiving episode even ended with a montage of clips from every Thanksgiving episode in the show's run. | |

Our Miss Brooks had two Thanksgiving episodes, both focusing on the problem of getting an inexpensive turkey for the holiday. "Thanksgiving Show", a Sound-to-Screen Adaptation, had landlady Mrs. Davis buy a tiny squab for Thanksgiving Day, after she was deterred by the price of a turkey. Miss Brooks tries to get herself invited to a traditional dinner, but only succeeds in inviting Walter Denton, Stretch Snodgrass, Phillip Boynton and the Conklins to dine at Mrs. Davis'. In "Thanksgiving Turkey", which was heard exlcusively on the radio, Miss Brooks, Mr. Boynton and Walter Denton buy a cheap live turkey. Unfortunately, she was the farmer's pet, answers to the name Bernice, and Miss Brooks is less than thrilled as Walter and Mr. Boynton arranges for her execution. |

Of course, things don't end up going as planned, but Bear helps her to see what's really important. A Comfy, Cozy Thanksgiving is a book release with its own plotline, which involves Treelo feeling unappreciated when nobody seems to want his help at Thanksgiving. He goes off on his own for a while, only to end up drifting back to the Big Blue House after smelling the wonderful smells of the Thanksgiving cooking and finding that everyone does, in fact, want his help. |

Mystery Science Theater 3000 has been tied in with the holiday ever since its debut on Twin Cities TV station KTMA on Thanksgiving Day in 1988. After it became a national sensation, Comedy Central ran Thanksgiving Day marathons of MST3K episodes for several years, dubbed "Turkey Day" to reference both the holiday and the film "turkeys" highlighted by the series. Many marathons featured special Thanksgiving-themed episode introductions with the show's characters, and an entire set of alternate Thanksgiving-themed host segments were created for the debut of Night of the Blood Beast; in reruns, they were replaced with the standard segments. Nowadays the MST3K YouTube channel runs a marathon every Thanksgiving. | |

Adam Ruins Everything has the episode "Adam Ruins... Guns," and features the clichés associated with Thanksgiving, such as a family get together interrupted by an argument about politics, in this case gun ownership, references to football, and when one of the characters gets fed up with the arguing, she goes to a big box store to shop for pre-Black Friday deals.note Black Friday, has been seen as the beginning of the Holiday shopping season and is seen as the biggest shopping day of the year, and traditionally, on Thanksgiving, which is the third Thursday of every November, all the stores closed both as an observance of the holiday and to prepare for Black Friday, but in the 2010s' stores have begun to stay open on Thanksgiving for pre-Black Friday sales. He also ruined the traditional portrayal of the first Thanksgiving. It's normally portrayed as a celebratory feast between the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag. What really happened was the Pilgrims decimated the Pawtucket tribe (who were longtime enemies of the Wampanoag), and were rewarded with corn. In other words, it was more of a celebratory feast for decimating a Native tribe. |

The West Wing episode "Shibboleth" laid on Thanksgiving very thickly in multiple plot threads that include both uses of this trope: President Bartlet invokes the original Thanksgiving as justification for freeing Chinese Christians fleeing persecution, and invokes the familial side of modern observance when he gives his body man Charlie (who has no parents) a priceless family heirloom originally made by Paul Revere as a gesture metaphorically adopting Charlie into his family. Also parodied early in the episode, when Sam and Toby are working on the President's Thanksgiving proclamation: CJ Cregg gets stuck dealing with the PR side of Thanksgiving in the White House and, having missed the previous year due to illness, is bewildered by things like the traditional pardoning of a turkey and having to sing with a kids' choir. The third season episode "The Indians in the Lobby" features a subplot of Bartlet calling the Butterball Hotline to test their advice on how to properly cook a Thanksgiving turkey. |

The Santa Clause takes place over a one year timespan, has a scene set during Thanksgiving that closes the film's second act. Scott, who has fully transformed into Santa by this point, is granted permission by his ex to see Charlie one final time to say goodbye after his visitation rights were suspended. When he visits him, Charlie shows his father the snowglobe he was given during their previous visit to the North Pole, convincing Scott that he really has become Santa. | |

Saturday Night Live had a skit called "First Thanksgiving", in which John Smith shares a meal with Pocahontas' family. Another skit, called "A Thanksgiving Miracle", takes place during a modern family's Thanksgiving meal, during which a young girl plays, and the family members lip-synch to, "Hello" by Adele. "Festive Thanksgiving" is one where Billy Bob Thornton plays a gay Pilgrim who brings the Wampanoag tribe to the first Thanksgiving dinner. For fake commercials, there's the "Nikey Turkey", which poked fun at the Reebok Pump sneakers that were released around the early 1990s, and also served as a parody of the intro to The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. | |

Mad About You had multiple Thanksgiving episodes over its run. Perhaps the most famous is "Giblets for Murray", where Paul and Jamie have to deal with overbearing parents trying to take over the meal, then having to replace the turkey multiple times after Murray (the dog, if you remember) eating the first one, without anyone finding out (everyone finds out eventually, but the parents don't tell the couple that they know). | |

Spin City did a few. The most remembered one is when the staff tried to do a live on-air special for New York. But one disaster after another keeps happening such as the mayor having bad blood with his father, Mike getting his hand stuck in the turkey and the staff constantly arguing with each other. Ironically the in-universe viewers loved it cause it's exactly how most Thanksgivings go down. | |

Radio stations have been known to play the 18-minute song "Alice's Restaurant" on Thanksgiving to mark the transition from regular music to Christmas music — and to give hungry DJs a chance to gobble some turkey.

The Empath: The Luckiest Smurf story "Empath And The Golden Magic Bird" is set in a Smurf analog of Thanksgiving called the Harvest Feast. It is on this day that the Smurfs encounter the titular bird that grants wishes whenever somebody feeds it and it sings a joyful song. Since the Smurfs are vegetarians in this series, a baked dish called a "cornucopia" (no pun intended) was substituted for the turkey. | |

Homestar Runner featured holiday 'toons fairly frequently, and Thanksgiving is no exception: "Some Stupid Turkey" (2001) is a short-short in which Strong Bad dresses like a turkey, then sings a song with the other guys of Free Country USA. Then the King of Town eats the entire Thanksgiving dinner by himself. "Happy T!" (2002) is a short flash file with messages of various HSR characters wishing the viewers a "Happy T!" (or a "Horpy Tor" in the case of Coach Z). The Strong Bad Email "colonization" (2003) centers around the alleged story of Strong Badia's founding, in the form of a parody of the traditional story of the first Thanksgiving. 2003 also saw the release of a series of E-greeting cards starring Fake Band Limozeen. "Fall Float Parade" (2005) has Coach Z and Marzipan as the hosts of "the firty-tirst annual Fall Float Parade" a parody of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade with balloons, a pair of Homsars dressed as Shriners, and floats dedicated to "SWE ATSHIRTS", calling Coach Z a jerk, and nunchucking snowmen. "Let Us Give TANKS!" (2006) is a Cheat Commandos short in which the Cheat Commandos go to Thanksgiving dinner with Blue Laser and his minions, and Gunhaver struggles to unwind. "Toikey TV" (2007) has Strong Bad and the Cheat relaxing after Thanksgiving dinner, trying to find something to watch on TV besides "the 2007 Falling Asleep On The Couch Watching Football Bowl". All they can find is stuff like a PSA by the King of Town on the dangers of non-fried turkey, a cartoon starring Strong Sad's folk-hero alter ego Saddy Dumpington, a cooking show with Marzipan showing her fellow "turkey liberators" how to make a vegan "faux-ducken", "another lame Thanksgiving special" featuring the Cheat Commandos, and a commercial for Bubs' Black Friday sale: "Come on, moms! You know you want to beat each other up over some stupid kids' toy!" "Twenty THANX-ty Six" (2008) is a Stinkoman short in which 1-Up tries to teach Stinkoman how to give thanks, which Stinkoman seems to think involves stuff like farming and being a businessman. For 2017, Strong Bad had a special episode of Skills of an Artist showing the viewer how to draw a cornucopia before he turns it into a sketch of a monster puking out plastic fruit. |

How I Met Your Mother have several Thanksgiving episodes: In "Belly Full of Turkey", we meet Marshall's family and their traditional game of iceketball and huge all-American dinner. Ted, Robin and Barney try to volunteer at shelter and do charity. Robin, being Canadian, gets weirded out on celebrating Thanksgiving in November. There are two Slapsgivings and a Blitzgiving, all taking place on Thanksgiving. A third "Slapsgiving" episode, "Slapsgiving 3 Slappointment In Slapmarra" became an Artifact Title. It happens during the last season, which takes place during Barney and Robin's wedding weekend and has nothing to do with the holiday. "The Rebound Girl" shows the prep for Thanksgiving, before dropping the bomb that Robin is pregnant with Barney's child (exept she's not really). |

Friends has a Thanksgiving episode in all but one season. The second season episode happened at Thanksgiving, but didn't feature a Thanksgiving dinner, like all the rest. In it, Monica works for a company who wants to make their product, Mockolate (synthetic chocolate), the new Thanksgiving "treat". A Running Gag in these episodes included Chandler often discussing his parents' divorce, which he was first told about on Thanksgiving when he was nine years old. | |

The Big Comfy Couch has the Thanksgiving special "Feast of Fools". in which Loonette and her doll Molly attend the annual Feast of Fools dinner party. Granny tells Loonette that the feast reminds clowns of the days when there wasn't much food to go around. When there is plenty of food, it's cause for a celebration which is precisely what Auntie Macassar brings to the feast in song! | |
