I don’t have many Thanksgiving traditions when it comes to television and movies. However, once in a while, I try to rewatch all the Friends Thanksgiving episodes or at least my favorite ones. I began my rewatch a little early this year following the news of Matthew Perry’s death. I wanted to rewatch my favorite Chandler episodes and that includes a few of the Thanksgiving ones. Most of them are very distinct but I noticed that my two favorite ones have a lot in common.
My favorite Friends Thanksgiving episode is “The One with All the Thanksgivings,” because it is a very funny episode that’s important to Monica (Courteney Cox) and Chandler's relationship. My second favorite is “The One with the Rumor,” because Brad Pitt is hilarious in it. I never connected these episodes, but when recently rewatching them, I noticed a few similarities.
