'Fowl play:' Who threw this turkey through a window?

Police were investigating a bizarre case of "fowl play" this week after someone through a frozen turkey through a family's window.

Laura Hopson says she was sleeping when the 10-pound turkey came crashing through her window.

I would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for you meddling kids!

I hate to admit that I completely forgot about it for maybe 30 years until someone posted a link on the 247 board a couple of years ago, but you're right.

It fights the "Jim's Driving Test" episode on Taxi for that honor.

That was probably me. I'm a funny fuck.

However that line "as god as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly"' was delivered with such comedic timing it was beautiful.

You do generally have that going for you.

Aired in Oct 1978 and still a comedy classic

Stretch Cunningham's funeral would like to have a word with you.

Idk what you bros are talking about

Bump.

RIP , Herb.

CB, you wuss, get your butt back here.

When Floyd recently went missing, my only real concern was this thread would not get bumped this Thanksgiving. Thanks, DWags. I guess we can survive without Floyd after all.

Duffy and Guest weren’t out of bounds to mention two competitive comedy scenes. However, while funny, neither hold a candle to the WKRP Turkey Drop. DWags is right. Arthur Carlson’s line is perfect.

Agree. Best episode of TV ever.

Greatest one line iteration to end a show ever. Still has not been topped

Couple other great lines that just have you crying:

“The turkeys are hitting the ground like bags of wet cement!”

After the helicopter landed:

“It seemed like the Turkeys were mounting a counter attack, almost like they were organized”.

Good lord, I’m cuing that up from YouTube to watch it today

"Thanks for that on the spot report, Les. If you're just tuning in, the Pinedale Shopping Mall has just been BOMBED with live turkeys.  Film at 11."
