Catch the parade on NBC, CBS

Today’s might-see

Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade, 9 a.m. to noon, NBC and CBS. It’s time for the annual burst of bright colors and booming music. The parade offers 10 bands, 13 giant balloons, 28 floats, 35 novelty balloons and endless enthusiasm.

It also has lots of singers, lip-syncing for the camera. That includes Trace Adkins, Miley Cyrus, David Archuleta, James Taylor, Darius Rucker and more, including Broadway casts. NBC gets the best location, so CBS counters by adding Sugarland and the Broadway casts of “Grease” and “Mary Poppins.”

Tonight’s might-see

“Storytellers,” 9 p.m., VH1. Kid Rock offers a zestful tour through his music career.

He struts his bad-boy persona in “Devil Without a Cause” and his song to ex-wife Pamela Anderson, claiming his new girlfriend is “Half Your Age (and twice as hot).”

There are also bits of sensitivity, though. Via recording, Rock brings back the memory of the late Joe C., the tiny rapper who was part of his band.

Other choices include

Marathons, cable. TLC starts “Jon & Kate Plus 8” at 6 a.m.; Discovery starts “Dirty Jobs” at 9, Both continue all day, with others jumping in.

“Gavin and Stacey,” 11 a.m., BBC America. This clever British series gives us the unfolding romance of two sweetly likable people, spiced by their brash friends. Here are 12 episodes, with a new one every 40 minutes until 7 p.m.

Football, 9:30 a.m., CBS. An upset Sunday prevented this from being the ultimate mismatch. The Tennessee Titans are merely 10-1; the Detroit Lions remain immaculate at 0-11. Afterward, it’s Seattle and Dallas at 1:30 p.m. on Fox.

“The Incredibles” (2004). 8 p.m., NBC. Here’s the animated hit about a family of superheroes, trying to settle into everyday life.

“A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving,” 8 p.m., ABC. If you missed it Tuesday, here’s another chance to catch this amiable cartoon.

“Grey’s Anatomy,” 9:02-11 p.m., ABC. Here’s a rerun of the season-opener. It’s a good one, as the staff frets about the hospital’s quality rating.
