The following is a list of the television networks and announcers to broadcast the National Football League's annual Thanksgiving Classic series of games. Since 1998, the game with an NFC team as the visitors airs on Fox, as they have the rights to the NFC; CBS airs the game where when the St. Louis Cardinals hosted a game instead). Because of TV network commitments, to make sure that both the AFC-carrying network and the NFC-carrying network got at least one game each, one of these games was between NFC opponents, and one featured AFC-NFC opponents. Thus, the AFC could showcase only one team on Thanksgiving, and the AFC team was always the visiting team.
