10 Best Thanksgiving TV Episodes
5. South Park - 'Black Friday'
We were tempted to plump for 'Helen Keller: The Musical' here as South Park's best Thanksgiving offering; after all, the Timmy and Gobbles storyline is quite incredible, as is Cartman's reaction to the whole situation. However, Trey Parker and Matt Stone took things to another level in their three part Black Friday/Game of Thrones mash-up in season 17.
In this Emmy nominated episode, South Park is approaching all out war. Randy takes a job as a security guard to ensure he is the first to get to the Black Friday discounts, while the children are falling out as they role play as their favourite GoT characters, splitting into factions as they argue over which new games console they should buy.
The first of a three part arc, once you've started with this, you might as well watch follow-ups 'A Song of Ass and Fire' and 'T***ies and Dragons'; worth your time for South Park's unique take on the Game of Thrones theme song alone.
