Review of A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965) by Matt L — 05 Dec 2012
The very first PEANUTS TV special, and forever the best. My only regret is that I was too young to enjoy it when it first aired, but I came to know and love Charlie Brown and his friends later on in newspapers and paperback compilations.
The story behind it is almost as moving and inspiring as the show itself - a show that almost didn't get made but for Charles Schulz and his team's determination to put their vision on the air despite the doubts of sponsor and network suits and many other obstacles.
The ratings and critical acclaim and four decades of annual re-broadcasts have vindicated their choices.
