HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Every Thanksgiving we like to mark the occasion by revisiting camp counselor Gary Granger’s masterpiece “A Turkey Named Brotherhood” (adapted by Wednesday Addams).
As we say every year, “it just wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without it.”
Just as it wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without us saying “Thank You” to you, our loyal readers (awwwwww).
This “play” is actually a famous scene from the 1993 movie Addams Family Values, which starred then-13-year-old actress Christina Ricci. And if you wanna be really thankful, click here, here and here to see how she grew up. Also appearing in this clip (as camp counselor Becky Martin-Granger) is Christine Baranski – one of the stars of the hit TV show The Good Wife, which recently featured Ricci in a guest starring role.
Built around one of the best soliloquies in film history, “A Turkey Named Brotherhood” is one of our favorite new holiday classics.
Enjoy!

I clicked, “here, here, and here”, as directed in the article and yes, I AM quite thankful!
Like Raspy I also clicked “here, here and here”
To me that last “here” looks a lot like her, the future POTUS, the Governor
I believe the shot was taken when the Governor starred in Clemson’s production of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
Since Clemson was too damn cheap to pay royalties they titled their production, Pussy on a Glass Chair
Careful Jim Lewis. You can’t post “Pussy on a Glass Chair” under a picture of a 13 year old girl. You are treading in dangerous waters, my friend.
When SLED comes to your door and asks you what is wrong with twenty eight year olds. Please don’t answer:
“There are twenty of them!”
Yes, Thanks, Fits for allowing us to have a peek at this (and the wedding dress).
One word keeps buzzing around in my mind – JAILBAIT!
(But, wait a second – I was once jailbait)
This and the WKRP turkey episode are my favorite Thanksgiving clips.
OH MY GOD IT’S TURKEYS!
Is that SC Governot Nikki Haley playing Pocahontas?
