10 Best Thanksgiving TV Episodes

4. The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air - 'There's The Rub (Parts 1 & 2)'

Friends all thanksgivings

A two part Thanksgiving episode featuring Will Smith sounds like TV gold whatever the circumstances, but the premise here pushes things to another level. Hilary's TV show is filming at a homeless shelter on Thanksgiving, so Hilary and Carlton go along to volunteer.

However, the real comedic meat of this special comes in the Will and Uncle Phil storyline, as Will takes his uncle to a massage parlour to help him out with his injured back. Unfortunately, this particular parlour offers a little more than massages and a much 'happier' kind of Thankgiving than the two were expecting. The police show up to arrest Will and Uncle Phil, leaving them trying to get out of the situation and make it home in time for Thanksgiving dinner.
