MACY'S 90TH THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE
November 23, 2016  | By David Bianculli

NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

The parade isn’t until tomorrow, of course, but tonight’s Macy’s parade special sets the stage, if not the table, by giving both a preview of tomorrow’s festivities and a history lesson of Macy’s past parades – a tradition that goes back 90 years now, all the way to one year before the advent of the talking motion picture. And even then, the first parade balloons had a cinematic link: to the animated Felix the Cat.
