TONIGHT'S MUST-SEE

In a competitive era, key shows can't take the holiday off. So both hospital dramas show up on Thanksgiving.
On "Grey's Anatomy," a major traffic accident has filled the emergency room. Meanwhile, Izzie is testing to see what she can do during her probation.
On "ER," Abby is just leaving on Thanksgiving, when she's needed because of a bus crash. Meanwhile, Neela is visiting Gates' house when a third person shows up.
