Thanksgiving TV episodes are the best.
In many shows, its a recipe for explosive drama.
In others, its a heartwarming reminder of why you love spending time with these people.
In short:Somebody Somewhererules, and this year, I am so grateful it exists.
Should we dive into some Num Nums?
And also some num nums?
A perfect holiday, by all accounts.
For the most part, this Friendsgiving is a success.
Shed probably run screaming from the carbs.
He tells them about Amy, his wife, whom he married right after high school.
They were best friends, but he still refused to accept who he really was.
To Brad, its a matter of her not seeing the world the same way he does.
Regardless, the entire scene is once again another example of Tim Bagleys knockout performance this season.
From SLS to this?
Brad, I just think you are the sweetest thing.
By the time Fred points out that theyre a family, everyone is getting a little emo.
Susan and Tricia get so very drunk.
Its okay; it gives Sam and Joel time at the end of the dinner to chat.
But it also includes some lovely friendship moments.
And isnt that the crux of so many of Sams issues?
If she fails or has a setback, she gives up.
And isnt that part of what makes this friendship so special?
That Joel knows exactly what Sam needs?
Sam decides to try.
She drives up to the farm to give Iceland Thanksgiving leftovers.
You gotta have turkey on Thanksgiving, she tells him.

Once again,Somebody Somewhereforces us to sit through Sam crying!
I cant take it anymore!
But she cant help it exactly what she feared would happen happened.
She put herself out there like everyone was pushing her to do, and she was rejected.
Except, as it turns out, she wasnt rejected at all.
She didnt give him time to finish his thought.
He didnt want to assume that she would want to drink beer with him.
Well, I did, she responds (okay, Sam, get after it!).
I would like to drink a beer with you, he tells her.
The smile on her face!
The smile on my face!
The whole thing is so freaking awkward and cute, I can hardly stand it.
No one tell Tricia about it because she would flip the fuck out (in the best way).
Tender Moments
If only the Joel Anderson Effect worked on Joel Anderson.
Joel might need more from his relationship, from his life, than hes admitting to Brad.
Theyd make a fortune!
