A VERY SPECIAL THANKSGIVING SPECIAL

To celebrate both the holiday of Thanksgiving and the august tradition of special Thanksgiving episodes, we look back at two shows we covered in previous exhibits, watching holiday-themed episodes we skipped in the first go-round. Both A Different World and Third Rock From the Sun tackled everyone's favorite family-and-food holiday in their own unique way. Do they hold up as great TV? Do they capture the hallmarks of their respective shows? Is Whitley a classy drunk? Does Jan Hooks smear gravy in her cleavage (spoiler: yes)? And most importantly, can these eps hold a candle to WKRP's classic "Turkeys Away"? Episodes we watched: A Different World, "If You Like Pilgrim Coladas", Season 2 Ep 6 Third Rock From the Sun, "Gobble, Gobble, Dick, Dick", Season 2 Ep 10
