"Let's not play lovers' games, Chuck."
28 November 2014
Charlie Brown and Sally are planning to go to their grandmother's for Thanksgiving. But those plans are interrupted when pushy Peppermint Patty invites herself, Marcy, and Franklin over to Charlie Brown's house for Thanksgiving dinner. Linus has the solution: a dinner with Patty and friends before they head over to their grandmother's. Unfortunately, all Charlie Brown knows how to make is "cold cereal and maybe toast." In steps Snoopy and Woodstock to prepare the most unique Thanksgiving dinner any of these kids have ever had.

As with the other Peanuts specials from the '60s & '70s, this is a treat for young and old alike. The wonderful characters and their relationships are what makes the old Peanuts cartoons so great. Lucy and the football, Peppermint Patty flirting with Chuck, Sally gushing over Linus, and Snoopy's misadventures with a lawn chair are just some of the highlights. Awesome Vince Guaraldi jazzy score including original song "Little Birdie." It's a cartoon guaranteed to make you grin ear to ear unless you're some kind of misanthrope.
