TV’s Best Thanksgiving Episodes, Ranked

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bryant chapter.

1.      Literally any Friends Thanksgiving episode- you have ten to choose from. Some of the best include: Season 8 “The One with the Rumor” this is the one where Brad Pitt guest stars, and who doesn’t love 90s Brad Pitt???. “The One with the Late Thanksgiving” from season 10 also holds a special place in our hearts because it’s the last one, but the best has to be “The One With All The Thanksgivings” from season 5 because it is full of flashbacks and Chandler tells Monica he loves her!

2.      Like Friends, Gossip Girl Thanksgiving episodes are a staple of every season. Our favorite? Season 1, Episode 9 “Blair Waldorf Must Eat Pie!”…Blair is all of us by eating every pie in sight.

3.      Modern Family also gets a mention on our list, the best are “Three Turkeys” from Season 6, episode 8 and “Punkin Chunkin” Season 3, Episode 9. Modern Family always has a way of relating back to the craziness of our own families and the Thanksgiving episodes are no different!

4.      An oldie but goodie is “A Deep Fried Korean Thanksgiving” from Season 3, Episode 9 of Gilmore Girls!

5.      For all of the Grey’s fans out there we can’t forget to mention “Thanks For The Memories” from Season 2, Episode 9, we’re thankful for the beginning of the Meredith & McDreamy romance.

6.      And lastly, you can’t get more classic than “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving”.
