SUBURGATORY Gobble Gobbles an Instant Thanksgiving Classic

The show has been steadily improving since it’s September debut, leading up to tonight’s hilarious episode. It’s George & Tessa’s first holiday in the ‘burbs, and they’re both missing Manhattan.

I’ve been salivating over the Food Network‘s Thanksgiving Day cooking tips and favorite recipes of the great chefs.

We saw her working through her own sniper attack back in …
