Watch new trailer for 'Doctor Who' 60th-anniversary specials coming to Disney+ (video)

You won't have to wait too long after digesting your Thanksgiving dinner to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the venerable "Doctor Who" sci-fi franchise.

Disney+ is serving up the first of three "Doctor Who" specials on Nov. 25 to mark the historic milestone.

As we prepare to turn the calendar to the holiday month of November, Disney+ is taking full advantage of its recent "Doctor Who" streaming rights acquisition. The platform is releasing new details about when the anniversary programs can be watched and has also unveiled a new trailer that features the Celestial Toymaker and lots of timey wimey wonder.

The trailer features Neil Patrick Harris as the villainous Celestial Toymaker, that odd antagonist who was first seen in a series of 1966 "Doctor Who" episodes.
