Welcome to The List,

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.  The first character balloon in 1927 was Felix the Cat, and the character to make the most appearances is Snoopy, with over 40.  This year’s parade is scheduled to begin at 8:30 A.M. Eastern tomorrow morning, on NBC as usual, along with streams on Peacock and Fubo.  Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb, and Al Roker of the “Today” show will return as hosts.
