Ranking Every Thanksgiving Episode of Bob’s Burgers

Once again, we find Bob on a mission to cook the perfect Thanksgiving turkey, and this year, he’s committed to a three-day brine. But, as the holiday approaches, the family wakes up to find a bizarre twist: the turkey is floating in the toilet! Despite replacing it, the same thing happens again the next day. What on earth is going on?

This turkey-in-the-toilet mystery is not only intriguing but also has a sweet and humorous resolution. However, what truly elevates this episode in my ranking is its spot-on capturing of the chaotic yet heartwarming Thanksgiving atmosphere. With family members like Gayle showing up and stirring trouble, kids desperately wanting a seat at the grown-up table, and Bob striving to perfect the massive turkey, it encapsulates the holiday spirit in all its messy glory.

And let’s not overlook one of the most hilarious bits in the entire “Bob’s Burgers” series. I’m talking about that deli counter employee who misinterprets Bob’s repeated visits for replacement turkeys as attempts to flirt with him. It’s comedic gold and arguably makes this not just the best Thanksgiving episode, but potentially one of the best episodes of the series. So, if you’re looking for a good laugh and some holiday cheer, give this episode another watch this Thanksgiving. You won’t regret it!
