Well, Thanksgiving is almost here. Are you ready to make a little piggy of yourself and argue with family about politics? Fun! Jokes aside, we hope that you all have a wonderful long holiday weekend. We are thankful for all of you who read our work, share it with friends, visit the site regularly, follow our social media feeds, etc. Be safe out there if you're traveling.
That said, here are some things we made for you that we didn't want you to miss.
-- We made the case for The Last Waltz being the best Thanksgiving movie ever made.
-- We put together a list of TV things you should be thankful for this year.
-- We created a guide to help you eat the maximum amount of food humanly possible tomorrow.
-- We debated the best Thanksgiving side dishes (we also made the definitive ranking of traditional Thanksgiving foods back in 2013).
-- We interviewed the directors of Moana, The Little Mermaid, and Aladdin to find out the secrets to their success.
-- We placed a spotlight on some eco-minded chefs who are blazing new food trails.
-- We highlighted some problems Disney has with female directors.
-- We reviewed Bad Santa 2.
-- We power-ranked the best teams in the NBA.
-- We put together a list of the best Black Friday shopping deals for you.
-- We made you a shopping guide for the TV and/or movie addict in your life.
And here are some things you might want/need to know about.

-- Trump appointed South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley to be his ambassador to the United Nations.
-- Diet soda may be even worse for you than originally thought.
-- Mark Cuban and Steve Bannon had a man-date.
