    Which channel were you watching the parade? I was watching NBC as usual, and although not as good as some years, it was not nearly as bad as you're making it out to be...

    This was without a doubt the worst (non)coverage of a parade. After every 20 commercials, the turned the cameras on and then promply blocked the float with another commercial.
    I do not know if you are covering the New years Parade, but I will not wast the electricity to turn on your channel to see.
    The idiots who produced this program today should all be fired!!
    Don't lie to us saying you are covering a parade. What a terrable waste of money the sponsers spent. I will not watch your channel again!

    Whoever those bozo's are that are announcing the Thanksgiving Parade please do us all a favor and can them next year - this had to be the worse parade I have watched in years. If you bring them back next year you won't have my family watching the parade. I don't care that GMC's are pulling the floats and to make wiseass cracks about this rather than to tell us about the float takes away from the watching the parade or commments about see the Santa balloon behind - please! I don't care that McPhee cut her hair and is now a blond. I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT THE FLOATS AND THE BALLOONS. I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR TIPS ON WHAT TO DO WITH MY TURKEY AFTER TODAY. I DO NOT WANT SNIDE REMARKS FROM THE BOZOS ANNOUNCING THE PARADE - THEIR ENTHUSIAM IS LIKE A WET FISH - IF THEY DID NOT WANT TO BE ANNOUCING THE PARADE THEY SHOULD HAVE SAID NO INSTEAD OF ACTING AS IF THIS WAS JUST A JOB AND THEY HAD TO BE THERE. GET SOMEONE WITH SOME ENTHUSIAM LIKE JENNIFER HEWITT LOVE AND JAMIE KENNEDY........... THIS YEAR'S PARADE IS RATED A -10 IT WAS SO BAD!moreless
