A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving

Hey there!

In honor of turkey day I wanted to showcase a classic! Every year since 1973 A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving has been airing on CBS.  While the animation is certainly a tad stale, the heartwarming tale is as good as ever, brimming with nostalgia. In case you missed watching it with your family this year take a look at it below.



The animation is certainly tired, and the story hasn't changed a bit, but it is still doing strong in the ratings.  This year the special tied for the #1 spot ratings wise.  This is a good sign, due to the fact that Charlie Brown will be making another appearance next year, although this time on the big screen. Peanuts is set to hit the screen in 2015 and features a revamped animation style that's more closely associated with the 21st century.


I'm not the biggest Charlie Brown fan, but I am excited to see such a staple of American culture stand the test of time. The success of this upcoming movie will definitely show if  Charlie and the gang can stick around even longer.

Until next time,

Alex
