Good night, I never realized there were so many Peanuts specials!

I think my favorites are the standard aired annually It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown!, A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, and A Charlie Brown Christmas.

A Charlie Brown Chrismas hand's down. But I'm a bid fan of most of them.

One of my favorites is "A Boy Named Charlie Brown." It perfectly sums up Charlie Brown's personality. He talks himself into feeling bad by thinking negatively all the time. But despite that, he enters a spelling bee just to prove he can be good at something. In the end he doesn't win, and at first he feels bad all over again. But then Linus comes to the rescue...

Linus: I know how you feel. You probably feel like you let everyone down. But did you notice something Charlie Brown?

Charlie Brown: What's that?

Linus: The world didn't come to an end.

And there's the song that opens and closes the film (I found the lyrics on a website, but I think they got some of the lyrics wrong, so I tried fixing it from memory):


Like the shadows of the morning
That climb up to the August afternoon,
Charlie has a way
Of picking up a day
Just by passing slowly through.

Maybe it’s a kind of magic
That only little boys can do,
But seeing Charlie smile
Can make you stop awhile
And get you feeling glad you're you

He’s only a boy named Charlie,
A Boy Named Charlie Brown
He’s just a kid next door,
Perhaps a little more,
He’s every kid in every town.

The world is full of lots of people
Here and there and all around
But people after all
Start out as being small
And we’re all A Boy Named Charlie Brown.

Not sure of the title (might be this one: #39. Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown), but it's the one where they all go to camp and have that river race. It's always been my favorite, not exactly sure why, but I love it so dang much!!

Snoopy Come Home, Bon Voyage Charlie Brown, Race for Your Life Charlie Brown, et cetera don't count as "specials" because they are actually and technically full-length movies.

My personal favorite is Snoopy Come Home. But I dunno, something about the holidays specials, they are my favorite "specials" but my favorite Peanuts thing, is Snoopy Come Home.
