What to watch on TV on Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving brings with it a lot of different blessings. Family, friends and more food that anybody knows how to eat without exploding like an over-inflated water balloon. But after a while, all that gets old and you just want to sit there and watch some television. Luckily for you, we here at MStars have compiled a list of Thanksgiving Day marathons and other programs to watch as you drift into a tryptophan-induced food coma.

1)   Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade (NBC or CBS 9 a.m.): It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without this annual tradition. Various colorful characters and thousands of people will march through New York City to celebrate Turkey Day. The weather forecast says NYC is supposed to be really windy on Thursday, which could have an effect on the floats.

2)   Friends marathon (TBS 10 a.m.): TBS has decided to air a 14-episode Friends marathon on Thursday that will feature all 10 of the show's Thanksgiving-themed episode, as well as four extra episodes that feature Ross' famous "we were on a break" line.

3)   The National Dog Show (NBC noon): Another annual Thanksgiving tradition airs immediately after the parade when John O'Hurley and canine expert David Frei host the dog show.

4)   Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions (Fox 12:30 p.m.): Thanksgiving wouldn't be Thanksgiving without football, and the Lions will once again host the Packers in the first game of the day.

5)   Harry Potter movie marathon (ABC Family 1:30 p.m.): Those looking for something different to watch on Turkey Day can tune in to watch Prisoner of Azkaban, Goblet of Fire and The Half-Blood Prince.

6)   Oakland Raiders at Dallas Cowboys (NBC 4:30 p.m.): The second game contains the other traditional Thanksgiving team, the Cowboys, and the Raiders.

7)   A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (ABC 8 p.m.): The 1973 classic airs yet again.

8)   Pittsburgh Steelers at Baltimore Ravens (NBC 8:30 p.m.): The final game of the night features the two bitter AFC North rivals.

9)   Glee (Fox 9 p.m.): Glee will tackle "What Does the Fox Say?" and will also have puppet doppelgangers of the characters.

10) Lady Gaga and the Muppets' Holiday Spectacular (ABC 9:30 p.m.): This will feature Kermit, Elton John, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Kristen Bell and RuPaul.
