Meanwhile, Rallo Tubbs and a reluctant Donna sign up to make a float for the Stoolbend Thanksgiving Parade.
Lester and Kendra give pursuit and Rallo climbs a parade balloon for a better vantage point to find his float.
Rallo sees that Donna brought the art supplies but one of Lester's stray shots sends the turkeys flying and they distract the balloon handlers causing the balloon that Rallo is riding to go flying towards power lines.
Recurring voice actors Bryan Cranston, Clarence Livingston, and John Slattery made minor appearances as well.
It's not exactly a sophisticated visual cue, but it is proof that The Cleveland Show’s creators can infrequently be funny without trying too hard".
[5] Jen Johnson of Den of Geek gave the episode a positive review, saying "As I have said, I am not a huge fan of this show...it did explore the issues of killing animals for food, and brought up the inconsistencies between species (turkey vs. pig), which I think is important...IF this show reaches a rather large audience.
