Gobble Gobble! It’s Thanksgiving week and you know what that means!

Holiday episodes and TV marathons galore all over the small screen as Americans get to cooking, eating and sleeping.

There’s a bountiful feast of fantastic options on TV this week as you contemplate whether or not to have that second serving of turkey and potatoes (go ahead!). And, of course, there’s always football. Many broadcast shows will also be celebrating the holiday with special episodes.

ABC’s Happy Endings is showing how the gang met on an un-aired season of The Real World while FOX’s New Girl is introducing Jess’ (Zooey Deschanel) parents played by Jamie Lee Curtis and Rob Reiner.

Meanwhile, there are plenty of marathons for you to catch of  all your favorite shows or perhaps even discover some new ones while you’re relaxing the days away. Our picks for the holiday week include a Friday Night Lights marathon on ESPN classic, the beginning of ABC Family’s annual 25 Days of Christmas, the first season of Fringe on the Science channel and next Wednesday’s Christmas in Rockefeller Center on NBC.

But, go ahead and take a look at the full list of special episodes and marathons in the gallery above or below to make your pick. There really is something for everyone (all times ET unless otherwise noted).
