Thanksgiving doesn’t have the same flashy reputation as Christmas when it comes to holiday programming, but there are still plenty of festive watches for the occasion.
Amazon’s Prime Video is home to a slew of children’s shows, which offer special episodes for the holiday season. There are also a handful of classics available for purchase on the platform with beloved characters like Arthur and Garfield.
Unfortunately, if you’re looking for A Charlie Brown’s Thanksgiving, you won’t have any luck finding it on Prime Video. The classic was acquired by Apple TV+, where is it currently streaming exclusively.
But no fear! There are plenty of festive options on Prime Video to set the mood. Here are seven Thanksgiving shows and movies available for free or to purchase on the Amazon platform to keep the whole family entertained on Turkey Day!
'An Arthur Thanksgiving'
