·31 min·2 clips
Jim wins a 35-pound live turkey, but his family panics when they realize it's too big to handle.
As heard by us
A turkey prize turns a New Year's party into a neat, funny household mess.
The episode takes a simple holiday setup and lets it tighten around itself in the right way. Jim Anderson's 30-pound live turkey, won on a 10-cent raffle ticket, becomes the source of New Year's Eve trouble for 40 guests, and the family banter does most of the work.
Why you'd press play
You want a holiday family comedy where one lucky win turns into party trouble.
