The Finale: Top 10 TV References to Vegetarianism and Animal Rights

by

Have you been hanging on in utter and total suspense, clinging to the edge of your seats in anticipation of the number one vegetarian/animal-related TV moment in 2007? First, if you have not yet checked out the rest of this top ten list, check out numbers ten down to six and then numbers 5 through 2. Of course my fave TV spot is inthe-office.jpg those that didn’t quite make the list, but definitely deserve an honorable mention.

Now, for the final installment of this seemingly endless, super drawn out list.

*1.* Coming from the American version of workplace comedy - The Office. It also comes from a hot tip from Lira, who writes Watching The Office.

Not only is worker Angela a vegetarian and cat lover, but the first episode of season 4 focused on this matter. When her beloved pet Sprinkles becomes ill at the same time that a coworker is injured (*cough* run over by Dwight), the-officde.jpgAngela asks boyfriend Dwight to watch over Sprinkles. Standard Office insanity ensues resulting in hilarious quotes (”There were claw marks in the frozen peas!”), Angela breaking up with Dwight, and vegetarianism and the rights of animals being given a comical platform.
