TV Marathons To Watch This Thanksgiving When You're Too Stuffed To Move

Although the holidays are a great time to catch up with family and friends and eat some good food, it’s also a great time to catch up on all of your favorite shows. Besides the plethora of options available on streaming sites like Hulu and Netflix, cable networks will also be providing some TV marathons to watch this Thanksgiving.

Whether you’re looking for something to put on to keep the kids busy while you cook or you want to bask in the nostalgia of watching some of your old favorite TV shows, there’s a little bit of everything on TV for you to watch this holiday season. Starting early in the day, cable and broadcast networks will be having marathons throughout the day, all the way to Thanksgiving night. Plus, even if there’s some overlap between your favorite shows, you can always use your DVR, so you can marathon what you miss later.

So grab your plate of turkey and stuffing or some pumpkin pie, get comfortable on the couch, and binge watch your favorite TV series. Check out what’s playing on this turkey day below and make sure to plan your schedule accordingly. Hopefully, you won’t have to fight with your family over the remote. (Please note that all of these listed times are EST.)

Teen Titan Go! (6 a.m. to 3 p.m., Cartoon Network)

Last Man Standing (1 p.m. to 8 p.m., CMT)

Tim Allen is a master at comedy and proves it in this popular sitcom, where he plays Mike Baxter, the last man standing in his family filled with women. If you'e never seen it, this is the perfect time to give it a chance.

Friends (1 p.m. to 6 p.m., TBS)

Is it really Thanksgiving if you don't watch all the Thanksgiving episodes of Friends? No, definitely not. And while you could watch the episodes on Netflix, there's just something about watching it on the TV with commercials that feels right.

As you can see, you have a lot of options to choose from, which is yet another thing to be grateful for this time of the year. Now go forth and binge!
