PIX11 To Broadcast “The Honeymooners” Mini-Marathon on Thanksgiving 2025

Greetings friends and welcome to another special post with a dual purpose. I’m sending out a slightly early “Happy Thanksgiving” wish to you and your loved ones and also to share that PIX11 has just announced that a mini-marathon of episodes of “The Honeymooners” will once again be happening on Thanksgiving Day between the hours of from 11AM-3PM. According to the listings these episodes will be broadcast between showings of the holiday Laurel and Hardy classic “March of The Wooden Soldiers”. The first showing of that film will be in black and white while the one afterwards will be in color. I love sharing rundowns like this one because its such a classic show and it gets me prepped for the longer marathon which runs every New Year’s Eve. While I’ve been doing that one for awhile this is only the second time that I’ve shared about the Thanksgiving Day one and by doing it a day or so in advance you have time to program your DVR or maybe even VHS player if you still happen to have one that works and a tape. These eight episodes are good ones but I really can’t find a single episode from the “Classic 39” that doesn’t make me laugh out loud. Are any of your own favorites listed in this rundown? If so do please chime in later on. Since these episodes are beginning while a lot of the feast preparation is still going on, it might be wise to pull that small portable set out of the closet. Here’s the rundown of episodes.

There have been so many music related biographies released over the last few years and that’s a very good thing for sure. There’s been “Bohemian Rhapsody” about Queen and Freddie Mercury, “A Complete Unknown” about Bob Dylan and even The Boss with “Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere”. Now it’s the late, great Michael Jackson’s turn with a film simply titled “Michael”. Earlier this morning the folks at Lionsgate Movies dropped the Official Teaser and I’m presenting that down below with some light premise and the casting. Enjoy.

The Premise: The film follows Michael Jackson’s life and career from his time with the Jackson 5 as a child in the late 1960s to his death on June 25, 2009. (c/o Wiki)

On June 20th, 1975, the Universal Pictures film “Jaws” became the first Summer blockbuster and kept beachgoers terrified about hitting the surf and rightly so. For it’s time it was truly ahead of the game and in honor of its 50th Anniversary the movie returns to the big screen for a limited time running from today 8/29 until 9/4. I’ve shared the celebration poster, some cast and a brief premise along with the original poster and trailer. It’s time for you to be afraid to go in the water….Again.
