    WKRP and the turkeys. TV for the ages.

    Two other suggestions:

    The Dick Van **** Show episode with the aliens who stole our sense of humors and our thumbs.

    The award-winning episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Chuckles Bites the Dust

    The latter is on YouTube; I've never found the former.

    No video, but found THIS:

    Twilo-ites - Alien race featured on episode No. 51 "It May Look Like a Walnut" (2/6/1963) on the classic sitcom THE DICK VAN **** SHOW/CBS/1961-66.
    twilo_kolak.jpg
    The Twilo-ites were the product of a nightmare experienced by comedy writer Rob Petrie (Dick Van ****) after he watched a late show thriller about aliens from outer space.
    In his dream, Rob discovers that he is the last earthling who has not yet been possessed by aliens from the planet Twilo. These Twilo-ites had eyes in the back of their head, ate walnuts, and spoke with a British accent. They subdued earthlings by exposing them to the chemical Absorbitron. The chemical caused humans to lose their thumbs and thus their ability to create things.

    The Twilo-ite's leader Kolak took the form of Danny Thomas, an eloquent man dressed in bowler hat and cane who happened to be billed as the weekly guest star on "The Alan Brady Show."

    As Rob returned to the safety of his home, he opened his front entry closet only to find his wife, Laura (Mary Tyler Moore) inside lying on top of thousands of walnuts (the favorite food of Twilo-ites). As Rob's nightmare climaxed, Kolak and all those possessed by him encircled poor Rob. But just then, Rob woke up.

    TRIVIA NOTE: Over 600 pounds of walnuts (TV Guide reports 1700 walnuts) were used to film the closet scene where actress Mary Tyler Moore came sliding out of the closet atop a pile of walnuts. At one point in filming, the weight of the walnuts caused the closet door to jam shut. This surreal episode was nominated as the fifteenth all time favorite episodes in a survey of "100 Greatest Episodes of All Time" (TV Guide 6/28/1997).

    George "did it" with Glamour, the magazine. Why would such a magazine exist at his parents' home? :D:p

    Very cool, but the synopsis doesn't do it justice. Rob is describing a movie he's watched to "Laura" (Lolak). Of the alien he says, "And do you know what he looked like. He looked just like... " (Laura is horror stricken, about to scream in terror at the description) ".... Danny Thomas!" Aiyeee!

    Near the end, Rob is trying to light a cigarette with a cigarette lighter. He's trying to flick it... but... he's gone thumbless Aiyeeee!

    They don't make 'em like that anymore...

    The Simpsons - the one with Linguo called "Trilogy of Terror." For some reason, I laughed my a$$ off that entire half hour.

    South Park - the "Scott Tenorman Must Die" episode. Maybe my favorite episode of anything. . . ever. There are probably 10 other SP episodes worthy of "best," but this is the best in my eyes.

    Always Sunny in Philadelphia - Great show. If you have a semi perverse, cynical sense of humor, you will love this show. My personal favorite is "the Gang Dances Their Asses Off." Again, great show where several deserve mention as "best" but this is my fave.

    That's all I can think of for now.
