Celebrate The Holidays With The Peanuts Gang By AmyBrantley on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
I grew up with a special called, A Charlie Brown Christmas. To me, this was, and always will be, my favorite Christmas special. But, the Peanuts gang had more than just a great Christmas special. They also had a great Halloween special called It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown and a Thanksgiving special called A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving.
All of these great specials are available in the Peanuts Holiday Collection. I love this collection. Not only does it have the specials mentioned above, but it also includes It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown, You're Not Elected, Charlie Brown, and The Mayflower Voyages.
This DVD collection is a must for children and adults. If you're a Christian parent, you'll love sharing A Charlie Brown Christmas with your children. The DVD version includes the part where Linus tells Charlie Brown what Christmas is all about. Sadly, this has been cut from the TV version.
Be sure to grab a copy before the holidays.

Good price for the whole collection! You know, I did not realize that scene was missing from the TV version. Very sad.
I saw a special about when the C-mas one was made. The networks hated it, but they were out of time to use anything else and Shultz said they had to use the whole thing or not at all. The network expected it to fizzle, and look where we are 40 years later!
