Today's annual Thanksgiving Day game in Detroit between the Lions and the Green Bay Packers commences seven hours of NFL football and no doubt provides welcome respite for many from food, parades and family interaction. Aaron Rodgers and the Pack hope to improve their chances of landing a playoff berth against one of the worst teams in the game in Matthew Stafford and the Lions. After this, the Cowboys and Oakland Raiders go at it down in Dallas on CBS.

New York's 83rd annual event features massive floats, soaring balloons and plenty of marching bands, all to usher in the annual arrival of Santa Claus. In addition to several numbers from current New York musicals, Andrea Bocelli, Boys Like Girls, Alan Cumming, Jimmy Fallon and the Roots, Gloria Gaynor, and Carly Simon are scheduled to appear. Matt Lauer, Meredith Vieira and Al Roker of "Today" host.

In hopes of defeating Lucifer, Castiel (Misha Collins) decides to search for God -- which, under the circumstances, would seem to be the kind of no-brainer that would have dawned on someone before now. Bobby's (Jim Beaver) friend Rufus (guest star Steven Williams) begs for help when demons attack his town, but Sam and Dean (Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles) discover the "demons" are mass hallucinations in "Good God, Y'all."

Jane and Lisbon (Simon Baker, Robin Tunney) are stunned to discover that the Red John case -- which involved the murder of Jane's wife and child -- has been assigned to another team under the direction of straight shooter Sam Bosco (Terry Kinney).

Maggie Rodriguez and Dave Price from "The Early Show" host coverage of the 83rd annual holiday parade, which features a performance by country music superstar Reba McEntire as well as numbers by the casts of "West Side Story," "Ragtime" and"Dreamgirls." Jamie Kennedy ("Ghost Whisperer") provides "man on the street" reports as he interacts with the spectators.

Reteamed from "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days," Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey have lesser effect together in this comedy-adventure as spouses bordering on divorce. The background settings are more attractive than they are, as the characters end up involved in a treasure hunt at sea, using the yacht on which the wife works as their base. Donald Sutherland plays the boat's owner, and Ray Winstone ("Beowulf") and Alexis Dziena also are in the cast.

Those who didn't get enough pigskin with their turkey this afternoon can sample football of the college stripe this evening in the form of a longstanding rivalry when Texas A&M hosts Texas. The No. 2 Texas Longhorns are led by quarterback Colt McCoy, whose 144 rating and 72 percent completion rate at this writing place him in the thick of the Heisman conversation. The unranked Aggies have a pretty decent signal caller of their own in junior Jerrod Johnson.

It certainly wasn't the worst movie of 2006, but this fluffy comedy about a newlywed couple sharing their home with the best man fails to live up to its potential. Blame the been-there-done-that "three's a crowd" plot premise and the been-there-seen-that performance of Owen Wilson as the third wheel, playing the same warmed-over surfer-dude wannabe he's trotted out in so many other roles. He and co-stars Matt Dillon, Kate Hudson and Michael Douglas could have made magic here -- but no.

Tyler (Michael Trevino) tries to embarrass Stefan (Paul Wesley) but the attempt backfires, only revealing the latter's stunning football skills.

An act of violence shocks the town in "Friday Night Bites."

When two burglars break in, the boy foils their attempts to rob the house by constructing elaborate traps. This 1990 comedy also stars Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, John Heard, Roberts Blossom, Catherine O'Hara and John Candy.

Well, Thanksgiving is a "family" holiday, and Francis Ford Coppola's masterful adaptation of Mario Puzo's mobster epic is an unforgettable film that invents a world of its own, with heroes, villains and a moral system unlike any other. Marlon Brando delivers an Academy Award-winning performance as title character Don Vito Corleone. Al Pacino is riveting as Vito's passionate, conflicted son. Diane Keaton, Robert Duvall and James Caan co-star in the 1972 drama.

In this 1973 animated special, the pressure is on for Charlie Brown after pushy Peppermint Patty decides she and the gang will have Thanksgiving dinner at "Chuck's" house, First, though, he has to submit to a mortifying ritual of fall: Lucy yanking the football away just as he tries to kick it.

Grissom's replacements always get a baptism of fire. Just ask Michael Keppler, who took over for him when he went on sabbatical a while back.

It starts out as a simple burglary, but the team soon discovers a connection to a complex arson and homicide. Marg Helgenberger also stars in "The Grave Shift."
