About ‘A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving’
“A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” originally aired on November 20, 1973, on the CBS network. It is the tenth prime-time animated television special based upon Charles M. Schulz’s comic strip Peanuts. The special won an Emmy Award the following year.
The 25-minute holiday show features Peppermint Patty (Christopher DeFaria), who invites everyone to Charlie Brown’s for Thanksgiving. Charlie Brown had plans to see his grandmother and doesn’t even know how to cook: “I can’t cook a Thanksgiving dinner. All I can make is cold cereal and maybe toast.” Linus (Stephen Shea) suggests that Charlie Brown (Todd Barbee) have two Thanksgiving feasts this year and recruits Snoopy (Bill Melendez) and Woodstock to help. The gang cooks up a tasty dinner with toast, pan-fried popcorn, pretzel sticks, and jelly beans.
In a press release, Paula Kerger, President, and CEO of PBS, said, “We are delighted to bring the joy of these holiday classics to families across the country, in partnership with our member stations…During these challenging times, public television continues to be a free and easily accessible source of comfort, inspiration and education for millions of Americans.”
“Charlie Brown” was written and created by Charles M. Schulz, directed by Bill Melendez and Phil Roman, and produced by Lee Mendelson and Bill Melendez.
A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving
Turkey, cranberries, pumpkin pie… and the Peanuts gang to share them with. This is going to be the greatest Thanksgiving ever! The fun begins when Peppermint Patty invites herself and her pals to Charlie Brown’s house for a REALLY big turkey party. Good grief! All our hero can cook is cold cereal and maybe toast. Is Charlie Brown doomed? Not when Linus, Snoopy and Woodstock chip in to save the (Thanksgiving) Day. With such good friends, Charlie Brown - and all of us - have so many reasons to be thankful.
