Happy Thanksgiving . . . or else

An '80s series like this, that DeLorean had to show up at some point, which means plenty of loving shots of the gull-winged beauty. Not to mention seeing it roll backward down the street and end up comically disfigured.

This is a story of brothers coming together, whether it's in burying the hatchet (Murray and Marvin) or in competitive living room sports (Adam and Barry). I'd seen this trope (the idiot brother) elsewhere - Scrubs, for one - and I think that that's why I ended up missing the car after awhile.

Stop Arguing & Start Thanking

Dan Fogler - star of JK Rowling's cow milking dry 'Fantastic Beasts' franchise- guests as a Murray's wacky brother, a character type we've seen done to death on lots of other shows. And better.

That pretty much sums up a bit of a dud episode of the show, written by Lew Schneider (of 'Everybody Loves Raymond' writing fame) who can do better than this.

Yet again they can't find anything overly interesting for Erica to do, and while this isn't bad so say, it just all amounts to not the best episode.

Trivia
Dan Fogler and Troy Gentile previously worked together in Good Luck Chuck where Gentile played a younger version of Dan Fogler.

Goofs
Murray's brother Marvin, who is over for Thanksgiving Dinner, states that the DeLorean DMC-12 was built in the US. It was not in fact built in the US, it was built in Dunmurry in Northern Ireland.
