Obligatory Turkey Day post.

Surely, this has been posted. Didn't see it.

Saw it on MeTV last Sunday. Probably their best episode.

One of the best comedy scenes ever.

Les Nessman: "Something just came out of the back of the helicopter. It's a dark object. Perhaps a skydiver. A second. A third ... no parachute yet. ... Oh my God, they're turkeys!"

"They're crashing to the earth right in front of our eyes! One just went through the windshield of a parked car! This is terrible! ... Oh, the humanity!"

"The turkeys are hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement! The crowd is running for their lives!"

"Doctor" Johnny Fever: "For those of you who just tuned in, the Pinedale Shopping Mall has just been bombed with live turkeys! Film at 11!"

Careful not to mention the Jennifer versus Bailey debate on this thread, lol.

One of the funniest shows WKRP ever did and it never fails to make me laugh. Awesome!

Great show, great memories. I particularly liked the episode with the band "Scum of the Earth"

Sir Nigel Weatherbee: Actually, we're not a punk rock group.

Blood: No. Punk rock is passe. We play hoodlum rock. It's several cuts below punk rock.

Venus Flytrap: What's the difference?

Blood: Well first of all, punk rock groups dress deplorably. And secondly, they don't usually physically attack their audiences.

This is one of those cultural things that I don't get. I find that WKRP episode a funny as my wife finds the Three Stooges funny.

Which is to say, not funny at all.

I do find Mystery Science Theater 3000 funny.

Thanks for that!

Back when TV shows had real humor. Miss that.

It was based on a real event in Atlanta, I’ve read...

I don’t know about farmed turkeys, but wild turkeys definitely can fly.

We live in Western North Carolina and occasionally see them flying from one hilltop across a highway to another hilltop, well over 100 feet in the air.
