 - 3rd party ``py.path`` objects are no longer explicitly supported in IO methods. Use :py:class:`pathlib.Path` objects instead (:issue:`57091`)
 - :attr:`MultiIndex.codes`, :attr:`MultiIndex.levels`, and :attr:`MultiIndex.names` now returns a ``tuple`` instead of a ``FrozenList`` (:issue:`53531`)
+- :func:`read_table`'s ``parse_dates`` argument defaults to ``None`` to improve consistency with :func:`read_csv` (:issue:`57476`)
 - Made ``dtype`` a required argument in :meth:`ExtensionArray._from_sequence_of_strings` (:issue:`56519`)
 - Updated :meth:`DataFrame.to_excel` so that the output spreadsheet has no styling. Custom styling can still be done using :meth:`Styler.to_excel` (:issue:`54154`)
 - pickle and HDF (``.h5``) files created with Python 2 are no longer explicitly supported (:issue:`57387`)
