This week on TV: Dave Letterman takes the Mark Twain prize for humor

This week kicks off the holiday season with Thanksgiving, arguably the funnest of the holidays because there's no pressure to to anything other than eat some food, and when it comes to eating some food, we're pretty damn good at it. Perhaps the biggest event happening this week is the airing of David Letterman's ceremony for The Mark Twain Prize for Humor. That's going down on Monday night on PBS. It's packed with stars who all rolled out to honor their late night idol and let him know that he's one of the very best in comedy.
