I heard that this year's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is not gonna be shown on NBC stations and is gonna be a Peacock only exclusive and I would like to know if anyone has heard about this? To me I think Peacock wants to get all the glory from NBC and get the rights to every NBC holiday special that airs. And on the NBC stations the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is gonna be replaced by regular programming and NFL Football. I think this is a shocking decision that NBC is doing and I think they are trying to get more subscribers to Peacock by doing this. But I think Macy's wanted more money for this parade and they decided to go with Peacock to save money and why NBC thinks NFL Football is more important than the parade is a shocking surprise

I don't know where you heard that news. Thankfully it's not true. NBC is airing the Cincinnati Bengals at Baltimore Ravens game at 8:20 p.m.

NBC and Peacock will broadcast the parade on Thursday, November 27 starting at 8:30 a.m. in all time zones. An encore telecast will air at 2 p.m. ET/PT. While Guthrie, Kotb and Roker are hosting the main celebration, a Spanish language simulcast on Telemundo will be hosted by the network’s Andrea Meza, Aleyda Ortiz, and Clovis Nienow.

and why NBC thinks NFL Football is more important than the parade is a shocking surprise

It’s a mystery for sure.


The forecast tomorrow here is for some strong winds, which could cause problems for the balloon flying.

NOt true. It's on regular TV too

The biggest problem with the parade on TV is 3 1/2 hours of coverage and it feels like half of that time is commercials.

It's on NBC followed by the Dog show than they rerun the parade again. Perfect for me. I don't have to miss it do to cooking.:)

One of my favorite things about Thankgovong is the Macy's parade and the Dog show. :)
