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.

"Spend Thanksgiving with good ol' Charlie Brown!"

This one was actually a bit boring in several scenes, it did not have that normal Charlie Brown cute feel all the way through, only at times did I think I was watching something similar to the 1st 2.

Also I missed the original voic...

There is some hate behind this for no reason aside from what Lenin said about having to destroy the culture. A lot of culture and traditions have been under attack due to false pretenses lately haven't they?

Anyway, like Christmas and The Great Pumpkin: You love it first because it is a wonderful and beautiful story. Then you love it because it has become nostalgic. And then you love it because it has become a generational tradition.

In other words it stands the test of time, just like the Thanksgiving pick-up football game stands the test of time. Just like the dinner, and the family af...
