TV by the Decade :: November 24•30

Sinking Ship Entertainment

It’s Thanksgiving week in the US, so new series premieres are virtually non-existent, with 2004 giving us a very short-lived family game show, and 2014 delivering four new series and two holiday TV movies. Two of the new shows were docuseries with two wildly different premises, and the two scripted series were for kids, one a continuation of a popular animated series and the other a multiple Daytime Emmy winner. Scroll down (not very far!) to see the shows and movies that are celebrating anniversaries this week.
