NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET
The on-the-shelf banishment of this sitcom continues to show, drastically and almost absurdly. Having a Halloween episode in the dead of winter, necessitated by NBC’s decision to bench this series until midseason, was awkward enough. But now, in March, comes a Thanksgiving episode. But timing, in this case, isn’t everything, because it’s still worth watching – because Jeff (Joel McHale) finally comes face to face with his long-estranged dad. And the dad is played by guest star James Brolin.
