The WKRP Thanksgiving Turkey Drop is one of the most famous and memorable episodes of the classic TV sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati. It originally aired on October 30, 1978, during the show’s first season, and the episode is titled “Turkeys Away.” In this episode, Mr. Carlson, the station manager, comes up with a promotional stunt to give away free turkeys for Thanksgiving. However, in an attempt to surprise everyone, he decides to drop live turkeys from a helicopter over a shopping mall, thinking it would be a fun and attention-grabbing event. The key twist is that turkeys, of course, can’t fly, leading to a chaotic and disastrous event. The final scene, where Mr. Carlson tries to explain the debacle, includes the iconic line: “As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!”
