Now, this particular rarity isn’t exactly set at Thanksgiving, but it does contain a family reunion, and it did air 55 years ago this month (on November 06, 1967, to be exact) — it’s an entry from The Danny Thomas Hour called “Make More Room For Daddy.”

On this installment of Danny Thomas’ single-season variety series, the former sitcom star reunited the cast of his long-running comedy — including Marjorie Lord, Rusty Hamer, Angela Cartwright, Sid Melton, Hans Conried, and Amanda Randolph — for an hour special about 20-year-old Rusty’s return from the Army, with a surprise: he’s just married his colonel’s daughter (Jana Taylor). This causes tension and tears, as the Williams family — particularly Uncle Tonoose — insists that the couple have another ceremony, while the bride’s militant father (Edward Andrews) also complicates matters via his disdain for “show people.”
