‘Shrinking’ Season 2 Finale
Good luck watching Season 2, Episode 12 of Shrinking, “The Last Thanksgiving,” through the tears that will inevitably fill your eyes. In this heartbreaker of an episode, Jimmy (Jason Segel) finally faces the issues he has been suppressing and Paul (Harrison Ford) bares his soul — and his unmedicated tremors due to his Parkinson’s — to his friends and loved ones. Episode 11’s final moments gave Segel his award-winning moment but Episode 12 is all about Ford. His speech near the end of the episode will move you to tears and all but surely make you join the Emmy nomination campaign I am championing. And shoutout to co-creators Bill Lawrence, Brett Goldstein, and Segel for debuting it on Christmas too, making the jokes even funnier and the emotional moments even more potent.
