AVSEPod Episode 130: Murder, She Wrote - "Indian Giver"

It's an Angela Lansbury memorial and Thanksgiving-adjacent episode as David, Carolyn, and Austin visit the murder capital of the world in Murder, She Wrote season 4, episode 10 "Indian Giver" (don't blame them, they didn't title it)! When a mysterious stranger in stereotypical American Indian garb hurls a spear at the Founder Days celebration and claims to own the town of Cabot Cove, racial invectives are hurled with abandon, leaving it to town busybody and everyone's favorite mystery-writing cool old lady Jessica Fletcher to get to the bottom of things per usual.

AVSEPod Episode 116: How I Met Your Mother - "Slapsgiving"

 

For Thanksgiving this year, David chooses violence with How I Met Your Mother's "Slapsgiving", an episode in which the threat of a looming slap hangs over Barney's head while also inviting rants aplenty from Austin and David about the ultimate legacy of HIMYM. Meanwhile, Carolyn ponders whether puns are the hand jobs or blow jobs of comedy, and all three question how much sex is too much sex.

AVSEPod Episode 99: ER - "Freefall"

"Must See TV" summer concludes with a Very Special Thanksgiving episode of ER! Included on the holiday menu is turducken, French toast, and DEATH BY HELICOPTER. That's right, as much as this episode might seem like a Very Special episode about the fertility of HIV patients, or marijuana use, or PTSD, it's really about the cold, unceasing bloodlust of helicopters. Join Carolyn, Austin & David as we carve a bird in honor of Dr. Melty Guy, discuss the unending stream of "That Guys" who appear on the show, and discover David's intricate knowledge of Michael Crichton's autobiography.

This year, we return to Family Ties to discuss the season one episode, "No Nukes is Good Nukes", in which Steven & Elyse spend the holiday protesting the proliferation of nuclear arms and end up in jail, while Alex and one of the Darrin's are insufferable asses about the whole thing.

AVSEPod Episode 4: The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air's "There's the Rub"

Gobble gobble, everyone! We are back with a brand new Thanksgiving-themed Very Special episode, just in time for the holiday! This week, we review The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air's two-part "There's the Rub", in which Will (Will Smith) and Uncle Phil get locked up for visiting an illicit massage parlor (no, seriously), Carlton & Hilary learn the true meaning of Thanksgiving (ie it's a lot easier to help people if you're rich), and Will's aunts spend an interminable amount of time arguing over stuffing and their relative attractiveness (because this show isn't *that* progressive). We also discuss Will Smith's dangle, Ryan's massage parlor, and everyone's favorite Thanksgiving foods.
