- EPISODE 19: A CHARLIE BROWN THANKSGIVING & THIS IS AMERICA: THE MUSIC AND HEROES OF AMERICA William Pepper 2:23:37
EPISODE 19 has it all! Dinner AND a show!
Dinner is courtesy of the 1973 holiday classic A CHARLIE BROWN THANKSGIVING. Peppermint Patty invites herself, Marcie and Franklin to Chuck’s house for Thanksgiving, forcing Charlie Brown to face his crippling fear of buttering toast. Snoopy gets his butt handed to him by a lawn chair. Woodstock engages in flagrant bird cannibalism. Ah, holidays!
The “show” part of the episode comes courtesy of the “MUSIC AND HEROES OF AMERICA” installment of the THIS IS AMERICA, CHARLIE BROWN series from 1989. Schroeder wants to give a report about America’s musical history. Lucy wants to give a report about America’s historical figures. Can they work together? Plus, who knew Charlie Brown could wail on the harmonica like that?
The “Peanuts by Schulz” short we watched this month was “Beware of the Dog”
