Thanksgiving is behind us, and depending on your perspective, the best part of the holiday is just beginning. We’re already done with the cooking and entertaining. Now it’s time to eat leftovers and enjoy the weekend, either with family or a relief of a distance away from them. And while you lounge, you could be having a Harry Potter movie marathon.

The USA Network began the Harry Potter marathon on Thanksgiving day, but you can still join in for full days on Friday and Saturday. You’ve only really missed Harry Potter & the Sorcerer’s Stone, so if you’re feeling especially dedicated, you can watch it right now or first thing Friday morning. (You’ve also missed Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them, but is that really part of the series?)

Harry Potter Weekend previously aired on Freeform, according to PopSugar, but that tradition stopped in 2017 when NBCUniversal took over cable rights to the films from Disney. In 2018, the marathon event moved over to Syfy, which is owned by NBCUniversal, as is USA Network. Long live Harry Potter Weekend!
