Season 2 Was The Only Season With No Thanksgiving Episode
This is unusual for shows, given that usually in the first season there are no holiday episodes. In the case of Friends, season two was the only one without a Thanksgiving installment. Every other season did, including season eight whose one features Brad Pitt.
There is a little bit of a Thanksgiving theme in S02E08, “The One With the Kiss,” insofar as Monica has to try to come up with Thanksgiving recipes for the new product “Mocklate,” a disgusting chocolate facsimile, but the holiday is still discussed as though it’s a ways away.
Friends is famous for its excellent Thanksgiving episodes, but it’s odd that there is one season where the main six do not gather to eat turkey and fall asleep in front of football.
