4 of the Best 4th of July TV Specials

When I was a kid, I would ALWAYS get sick on the 4th of July for some reason. Not a lot of fun when your friends and family are running around at barbecues and watching fireworks while you’re stuck indoors. My only solace: TV – particularly 4th of July specials. If I couldn’t watch real fireworks outside, this was the next best thing!

In honor of all the 4th of July specials that have graced TV, here are 4 of the best:

Disney’s 4th of July Special (1992)

If you L-O-V-E Disney and the early 90s, you’ll definitely want to check out this blast from the past! The late John Ritter (of Three’s Company fame) hosted this Disney special in 1992.

Saved By The Bell Fourth of July Episode

Ah, Saved By The Bell. Probably one of the only TV series that incorporated a 4th of July episode in there!

Boston Pops Fireworks

Classic 4th of July fare, including amazing classical patriotic classic music.

Macy’s 4th of July Spectacular (2010)

Overlooking the Hudson River, with performances by Justin Bieber, LeAnn Rimes, Enrique Iglesias and more! Macy’s never fails to keep audiences entertained throughout all of the holidays.
