Since we told you what characters we’re grateful for this year, we decided to see if any characters had their own expressions of thanks to share with us. Sure enough, Fox was one step ahead of us, having already asked some of its main characters for input (with a little help from writers of the series).
Here are what some of or favorite fictional females had to say:
“I am thankful that I’m single again and that Lightman got some much-needed vacation time in Mexico. I also feel really bad for all the turkeys. Does anyone need a date for Thursday night?”
“I am thankful that I’m no longer working at the airport, where I was used to spending Thanksgiving weekend telling people to remove their smelly shoes and strip-searching potential terrorists.”
“I’m thankful for bamboo’s durability and resistance to splintering, making my ‘discipline cane’ the perfect teaching tool.”
“I am thankful for the Thanksgiving tradition of splitting the Furcula. The Furcula being the wishbone, of course.”
“I am thankful that scotch exists.”
Of course, once characters from other networks got wind of Fox’s coup, they pitched in with their own Thanksgiving thoughts (with a little help from us).
“I’m thankful for Iowa.”
“I’m thankful for the classic stylishness of bi-curious shoes.”
“I’m thankful that you can’t pray away the gay.”
“I’m thankful that Dr. Maggie Doyle was waiting on the other side of the parking lot.”
“I’m thankful that I am straight only on camera.”
And, courtesy of StuntDouble:
“I am thankful for magic cleavage that can be framed as a rhombus with the correct neckline.”
“I am thankful for the original Thanksgiving tradition of oppressing people who have less money and gunpowder than you.”
Do your favorite TV characters have an attitude of gratitude? What are they thankful for?
