What is a must watch for you on Thanksgiving

There are many Christmas movies, that people feel they must watch… Miracle on 34th… A Christmas Story… Christmas Vacation… Elf… Die Hard…etc…

Are there any movies/TV show episodes that you just have to see, or it’s just not Thanksgiving?
For me Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, and WKRP …Turkeys Away are as close as it gets

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: “Pangs”

[Giles] “We’ll mash them with forks, much as the Pilgrims must have done.”

don’t know any T-giving movies or tv but I always listen to Alice’s Restaurant

Home for the Holidays

Came out in the 90’s. with Holly Hunter. I love it and is my must watch for Turkey Day

Every Thanksgiving I make a point of listening to William S. Burroughs’ Thanksgiving Prayer.

Does the National Dog Show count?

No mention of the Macy’s parade?

(never mind)

Same here.

Jeopardy!

WKRP in Cincinnati, S1E07, Turkeys Away.

(Must hear: Arlo Guthrie’s Alice’s Restaurant.)

"March of the Wooden Soldiers"

Ollie Dee: “You go down and bring him up.”
pause
“Do you mean to tell me that you’re going to let 50,000 Guineaus slip through our fingers?”
Stannie Dum: “Well I’m scared!”
Ollie Dee: “Why should you worry? You and he are just like THAT.”
Stannie Dum: “But that was before we were married…”

As a kid, King Kong. I even made a thread about it here.

“We gather together to watch cheesy movies…”

Usually, I watch Manos: Hand of Fate and Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, but this year I got out my big box set of MST3K Gamera movies. Because nothing says Thanksgiving like a giant flying turtle.

The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Though it’s not what it was when I was a lad. Ah, me.

I kind of associate Home Alone with Thanksgiving. And it’s on tomorrow. :slight_smile: (I know, it’s a CHRISTMAS movie…just how it is.)
