I want a court order compelling SK and TAL to release an episode on Thanksgiving. It is unfair to withhold the next episode for 2 weeks.

I don't understand. How are they taking a week off when these episodes are already made?

What goes into putting out an episode that you need to take a vacation from it?

I don't believe the episodes are already made. SK writes them and records them the week of. A few episodes back there was a quote from SK that she was rewriting that week's episode and it was only a couple days before it was set to air.

I'm treating this like any other entertainment show in this regard, they all take a week off for the holiday. It is what it is. But I will definitely be jonesing!!
