If you’ve ever wished you could compile the best holiday sketches “SNL” has to offer, NBC has you covered, for Thanksgiving at least.
“A Saturday Night Live Thanksgiving” will put together the most memorable Thanksgiving-themed “SNL” sketches from over the years, which we assume could include favorites like Kristen Wiig-led “Thanksgiving Parade” for when she returned to host a Season 42 episode, “Back Home Ballers” starring Cameron Diaz from Season 40 or even a Season 2 monologue that saw Paul Simon perform in a giant turkey costume.
The special, however, won’t air on a Saturday, but instead on the eve of Thanksgiving on Wednesday, Nov. 26 on NBC. Get the full details on how to watch the special below.
