'Happy Genocide Day' and 8 Other Thanksgiving TV Fails
By Alexa Moutevelis | November 28, 2019 6:00 AM EST

Although there are a few shows to be thankful for, overall, TV is full of anti-conservative and anti-Thanksgiving messages. They'd rather have you feeling guilty than grateful. From calling Thanksgiving "unethical" to equating it to "genocide," "racism" and "Nazis," these shows have twisted the spirit of Thanksgiving into something unrecognizable and grotesque. Take a look at these turkeys.

In 2015, long canceled Fox sitcom Grandfathered was ahead of the curve in saying, "Thanksgiving has unethical origins." Two years later, Sarah Silverman went further and ranted about the "genocide and racism" in Thanksgiving on her Hulu show I Love You, America, even describing the holiday as “the very first dinner between the pilgrims and the Native Americans they bleep over.”
