![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Welcome to IT'S A PODCAST, CHARLIE BROWN, episode 53. Even in two dimensions, these characters are fully fleshed-out humans - and one beagle - with all the fears, anxieties, joys and laughs we all experience. There are many layers to a Peanuts special. We'll discover what we liked and what we didn't. To date, Charlie Brown and the gang have appeared in five feature films and dozens of TV specials, including the series "This is America, Charlie Brown" and "The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show".Īnd on this podcast, we're going to watch them all. I pretty much have the dialogue memorized, much to the chagrin of my wife and kids. ![]() And I don't think a year has gone by that I haven't watched the Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas specials. BON VOYAGE, CHARLIE BROWN (And Don't Come Back!) is a wonderful movie, animated or otherwise. I know I watched A BOY NAMED CHARLIE BROWN over and over on cable. I was pretty young, but I remember seeing RACE FOR YOUR LIFE, CHARLIE BROWN in 1977 in a movie theater. The airing of a Peanuts TV special was a big event in my house. And, honestly, I'm a little sad Shermie never took off as a main character.Īnimated Peanuts was great too. (I especially identified with Linus.) I really liked the week-long story arcs and the brilliant mix of humor, frustration and perseverance of these lil' folks. Charlie Brown and the gang were friends to me. As a kid, it was a good Saturday afternoon if I had a bowl of Cheetos and a collection of Peanuts comic strips in front of me. ![]()
