‘Grey’s Anatomy,’ “Thanks for the Memories”
Grey’s Anatomy has done many holiday episodes over the years, but “Thanks for the Memories” (Season 2, Episode 9) may be its most memorable. The medical drama’s first-ever Thanksgiving episode follows our favorite group of interns — remember when they were interns? — as they come up with increasingly creative ways to avoid helping Izzie cook dinner. While Meredith and Christina sneak off to the hospital, George gets suckered into his family’s annual turkey hunting trip, but things go awry when one of his brothers shoots their father in the butt. If there’s anywhere you don’t want to be on Thanksgiving, it’s the Seattle Grace Hospital emergency room.
