The best part of American Thanksgiving is the very good National Dog Show that airs every year right after the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. It’s truly a treat, getting to look at so many sweet puppers from the comfort of your sofa. Unfortunately, it doesn’t last all day. By afternoon, you need something else to watch while your body digests a gallon of masticated vegetable sludge, gelatinous fruit cocktail, and half a bird.

Our modern era supplies virtually unlimited streaming service options. In fact, the abundance of choice can paralyze the unprepared. To help, we’ve selected 12 currently streaming flicks that should suit your needs this holiday weekend — whether that be something to watch with an inebriated aunt, or a teen cousin who hates you.

Burn After Reading

One of the funniest of the Coen Brothers’ movies, Burn After Reading stars Frances McDormand, Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Tilda Swinton, and John Malkovich. It’s basically a dream come true as far as pitching a movie choice to the middle-aged attendees at your family dinner. The film follows a group of Washington D.C. ne’er-do-wells who manage to cause a bunch of stupid, violent disasters. Bonus: It features no less than 9,000 highly GIF-able moments of Brad Pitt as a numbskull personal trainer with a wad of Bubble Yum permanently embedded in his jaw. If you need a good, deep, cynical laugh, this is a solid choice. — Kaitlyn Tiffany
