This week on It Was a Thing on TV we bring to you our annual Thanksgiving celebration!
First, it's an It Was a Thing on TV tradition like no other. Every year since 2019, we have looked at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in chronological order, starting with the 1983 parade. We're up to the 1987 parade. What characters will star in this parade? What products will advertisers shove down our throats? And did Charlie Brown ever get a growth spurt!
Then, the holiday tradition at the podcast now starts its trek going back in time, starting with the 1982 edition of The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. How does it compare to what we have seen from later in the 80s and why are so many kids expressing their emotions?
Finally, thirty Thanksgivings ago, Leon Lett committed one of the most boneheaded plays in NFL history. Oddly enough, less than a year earlier, Lett previously committed another one of the most boneheaded plays in NFL history, on the biggest stage of them all.
