Thanksgiving TV Specials/Movies?

[aduidarnenye]

(Yes, I know American Thanksgiving is in November and that it is a shock to American systems to learn that Canadian Thanksgiving is in October.)

I'm teaching a English as a Second Language class called "Communication Basics", which is basically a very low level speaking class. Our topic this week is food. Since Monday is Thanksgiving I thought I would do something about Thanksgiving food.

My students need a lot of listening practice so I am looking for a TV show special (like a 30 minute sitcom or a 1 hour show) or a movie with a fairly uncomplicated plot that is about Thanksgiving (doesn't matter if it's American) and focuses on food and food preparation. My students love comedy, especially physical comedy (8 out of 12 are late teenage boys). Drug references should be kept to a minimum. Football and beer are okay (as long as there are no falling down drunk people).

Can anyone think of a good Thanksgiving show I can torrent and do a class on?

Thanks for any and all suggestions!

When in doubt? Charlie Brown:

Or you could do Home for the Holidays:
