As a seasoned gamer with a heart for television, I must say that this Thanksgiving night TV lineup has left me more bewildered than a level 10 boss battle in my favorite game. FOX’s decision to air new episodes of Wednesday shows on a Thursday is as unexpected as finding a rare item in a common chest!
On Thanksgiving Eve, I’m usually settling for specials and repeats on the telly. But this year, FOX is shaking things up on November 28th! Let me fill you in on what’s scheduled to stream live on our screens tonight.
Indeed, tonight marks Thanksgiving evening. Typically, people are full from their turkey meal and eager to catch some football. If you’re a parent, you might decide to play a couple of movies for your kids to enjoy together. It’s a night of unwinding and spending quality time with family, which is why many television networks tend to postpone airing new episodes of popular shows.
New episodes of The Masked Singer and The Floor
Tonight, Fox is taking an unusual step that could harm their linear ratings. Last night, they showed reruns of their usual Wednesday shows, but tonight, they’re airing brand-new episodes – not those scheduled for Thursday nights. Instead, it seems they’ve decided to broadcast new Wednesday night shows on a Thursday. This is quite uncommon!
See, I told you it was odd! We’re getting new episodes of The Masked Singer and The Floor.
Tonight’s episode of “The Masked Singer” is quite significant, as we’re reaching the finals for Group C. This could potentially mean two major unmaskings tonight. I understand how it might be beneficial for the broadcaster with everyone gathered around their TVs, but it seems to disrupt shows that typically air on Wednesdays. Frankly, this scheduling confuses me.
If you’re seeking family-friendly movies, both The CW and ABC have got you covered! On The CW, catch a screening of Shrek starting at 7 p.m. ET/PT, an earlier time slot to ensure the movie ends before the network returns control to local programming at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
On Wednesday, there was a special 20/20 episode about the impact of Mary Poppins. It turns out that ABC is going to screen Mary Poppins, which seems fitting given the recent focus on this iconic character.
Tonight’s highly anticipated matchup is between the Miami Dolphins and the Green Bay Packers, with NBC broadcasting the game instead of its usual Thursday night slot. In contrast to Prime Video, this game won’t be available there. However, NBC continues to hold the rights for all Thanksgiving Day games, a tradition that the NFL doesn’t seem ready to alter just yet!
