Why were there so many Becker holiday episodes if my memory is correct 2 or more for thanksgiving and at least that many for Christmas. I mean most shows might do a christmas episode and a thanksgivig episode but not as many as they did on becker

I liked the Thanksgiving episode where Jaimie Pressley was on. She played Gracie, Chris' sister that was an ex con. When she came for dinner, everyone was so nervous at the dinner table. I liked the part when that girl (the young one who worked in Dr. Becker's office) came in the door with her camcorder and said: "mom, dad, I just walked into Dr. Becker's apartment. If anything bad happens to me today, I just wanna let you know I love you both very much. Oh, and when I was 14, I stole mom's gold bracelet to buy dope, but in my defense it was really good dope."

Dave Hackel probably really liked the springboard since Wings had a lot of them too. For a character like Becker especially it's fun to his reaction to the mood shift on holidays and even bring some polarizing dilemma in what should be a happy holidays is comedy gold

I like the episode where Bob went to see his mother in the nursing home.

That was a nice episode...I liked that also! Those few private moments and the dance Bob had with his Mother...

I like the Christmas episode "Dr. Angry Head", where he tries to steal an ornament off the Christmas tree in a department store and throws his back out and lands on the display, with a train running around that keeps hitting him.

There was also at least one episode where it was Valentine's Day.
