Taking an alternate route ensures the drive will be 5 hours (at least) instead of 4 (best case time), so I am hesitant.
But not to beat a dead horse here, but can any one venture a guess to the original question? Clearly at 5 PM on Wednesday the traffic will be terrible. But clearly at 4 AM on Thanksgiving day, the traffic will be fine. So does anyone have any idea when it switches from gridlock to free flow on Wednesday Night/Thursday Morning? Thanks.

If you take my route you will be fine, I can't speak of the Redland area, but the only place where I would expect maybe some traffic would be around Pasadena.
I know for sure you will be in traffic if you take the 101 to the 134 around 4/5PM, it's a bottleneck that starts before the 405. At 4AM LA traffic is a breeze, in the last weeks I have exceeded 90mph several times around that time. Around 6:30/7AM traffic starts to build up and will come to a crushing halt around 8:30/9AM.
