Cancel your Thanksgiving weekend plans because a magical 3-day Harry Potter marathon is set to take over your screens! Picture this: indulging in a feast of turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and pie, then sinking into your couch to binge-watch every single Harry Potter film. That sounds like the ultimate Thanksgiving fantasy, doesn’t it? Well, this year, that fantasy is becoming a reality.
From Thursday, November 28 to Saturday, November 30, you can catch every Harry Potter movie currently available on TV, except for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald. This year’s marathon is hosted by the USA Network, so make sure you have access to that channel. With the rights to air the films having shifted from Disney to NBCUniversal in 2017, Freeform’s Harry Potter marathons are a thing of the past. However, NBC has graciously continued this beloved Thanksgiving tradition!
Imagine the scene: you can feast just like Harry and his friends do in the Great Hall. Why not add some themed treats to your Thanksgiving spread, like treacle tarts, pumpkin juice, or even butterbeer? This Thanksgiving 2019 is not just any holiday; it’s transforming into a magical experience — call it Pottergiving or Thanksharry, whatever you like. The important thing is to appreciate the chance to relax and enjoy a weekend filled with Harry Potter films.
Here’s the Schedule for the Marathon:
