A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is a beloved television special that first aired in 1973. Created by Charles M. Schulz, this animated classic brings to life the lovable Peanuts gang in a heartwarming and humorous Thanksgiving tale.

The cast of A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving includes iconic characters from the Peanuts comic strip, such as Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Lucy, Linus, Peppermint Patty, Marcie, and Woodstock. Charlie Brown, portrayed by Peter Robbins in the original series, is the main protagonist who often finds himself in mishaps and challenging situations. Snoopy, voiced by Bill Melendez, is Charlie Brown's imaginative and playful beagle who steals the show with his hilarious antics.

In A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, Charlie Brown and his friends find themselves facing an unexpected challenge: hosting a Thanksgiving dinner. With little time and hardly any culinary skills, the gang attempts to put together a last-minute feast. Chaos ensues as Charlie Brown and his pals struggle to understand the true meaning of Thanksgiving while grappling with unconventional dinner offerings like popcorn and jellybeans.

The heart of A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving lies in its endearing messages about friendship, gratitude, and the importance of coming together during the holiday season. As the gang navigates their unconventional feast, they discover that the true spirit of Thanksgiving is not about the food, but about the bonds they share and the gratitude they express for one another.

The music in A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is another notable aspect of the special. Composed by Vince Guaraldi, the jazzy tunes add an extra layer of charm to the story. Songs like "Over the River and Through the Woods," "Little Birdie," and "Thanksgiving Theme" have become instantly recognizable and are cherished by generations.

The delightful soundtrack and the special itself are available for streaming and download.

Absolutely. Come on, Charlie Brown. It's a big honor for you.
Actually, she really likes you.
All I can make is cold cereal and maybe toast.
All it does is make more work for us at school.
Amen.
And the biggest, most important tradition of all...
And we should be thankful too.
And what time do we go?
Anyway, why should I give thanks on Thanksgiving?
Are we going to have a prayer? It's Thanksgiving, you know.
As a matter of fact, they've let me know that...
Before we're served, shouldn't we say grace?
Besides, he didn't say it was formal.
Besides, she wouldn't try to trick me on a traditional holiday.
But Charlie Brown, it's Thanksgiving.
But I just don't know.
But Thanksgiving is more than eating, Chuck.
Charles?
Charlie Brown. Oh, Charlie Brown.
Come on inside. We need some help with the food.
Come on, Charlie Brown. I'll hold the ball and you kick it.
Come on, Snoopy. We don't have any time for this playing around.
Did he invite you here to dinner or did you invite yourself and us too?
Did we come across town for this?
Do you know what we have to do now?
Do you remember the story of John Alden and Priscilla Mullins...
Do you think I should wear a tie?
Don't feel bad, Chuck.
Don't worry, we won't make any problems.
Don't you know anything about Thanksgiving dinners?
Elder William Brewster, who was a minister...
For Christmas? Already?
Gee, I never thought of it like that. Do you think I hurt old Chuck's feelings?
Go see him and tell him I really like him...
Golly, why can't I act right outside of a baseball game?
Good grief, it's 4:00.
Governor William Bradford and Captain Miles Standish...
Great, we're ready.
He said dinner will be served a little earlier.
He said I can go to your house and share Thanksgiving with you, Chuck.
He's all yours, Priscilla.
Hello?
Hello?
Hello? Grandma?
Her folks said it would be okay if she joined us.
Hey, Chuck, this is gonna be the biggest bash of the year. See you.
Hey, guess who just walked in over here. It's Franklin.
Hi, Chuck. This is Peppermint Patty.
Hold it? Ha!
Holidays always depress me.
How about your chef's hat?
How do I always get into these things?
How you been, Chuck?
I agree.
I bet I hurt his feelings, huh?
I better talk to her and explain my dilemma.
I can't believe it.
I can't cook a Thanksgiving dinner.
I can't keep track of all those people.
I don't feel bad for myself.
I don't mind inviting myself over, because I know you kind of like me, Chuck.
I haven't even finished eating all my Halloween candy.
I just feel bad because I ruined everyone's Thanksgiving.
I just talked to Charlie Brown.
I just talked to her, and she kind of would like to see you again.
I know what you mean.
I know you probably can't talk, because someone's listening.
I think I'm losing control of the whole world.
I think maybe you should go to Chuck and tell him yourself.
I think that's what they mean by "Thanksgiving," Charlie Brown.
I told him about the big turkey party you're having...
I went down to buy a turkey tree...
In the year 1621, the Pilgrims held their first Thanksgiving feast.
Is that right?
Is this what you call a Thanksgiving Day dinner?
Isn't he the cutest thing?
Isn't it peculiar, Charlie Brown...
Isn't there an old song that goes:
It seems Thanksgiving Day is upon us.
It's your own fault because you're so wishy washy.
Just save me a drumstick and the neck, okay, Chuck? See you, Chuck.
Let's not play lovers' games, Chuck.
Listen, I have even greater news.
Listen, I really have a treat for you. My dad's been called out of town.
Marcie, maybe you can go to old Chuck and patch things up for me.
Marcie, you can do it.
Maybe I should do it.
Maybe you can tell him how I really feel.
My grandmother lives in a condominium.
My mother and dad and Sally and I...
No, ma'am, they haven't eaten.
No, Marcie, I'll just ruin everything. You know I'm too brusque and rough.
No, you can come as you are, Franklin. Old Chuck won't mind.
Nothing. I was just checking the mailbox.
Now she's bringing Marcie too.
Now, wait a minute, sir.
Okay, Snoopy, that's pretty good.
Okay, that makes it easy. You simply have two dinners.
Okay, that's a date. See you soon, you sly devil.
Old Chuck is pretty cool about dates. He always wears that striped shirt of his.
One of the greatest traditions we have is the Thanksgiving Day football game.
Ours was the first country in the world...
Peppermint Patty didn't mean all those things she said.
Peppermint Patty has invited herself, Marcie and Franklin...
Peppermint Patty will hate me for the rest of my life.
Peppermint Patty's coming to Thanksgiving dinner.
Please get some chairs around the table.
Priscilla?
Priscilla?
Rough? Look at this.
Sally, Thanksgiving is a very important holiday.
She must think I'm the most stupid person alive.
She's a great baseball player. and a boy named Franklin.
Snoopy, how can you serve the food in that ridiculous outfit?
Snoopy, you go out to the garage and get a table...
So you can count on two for dinner, Chuck.
Sure, only this is the way it goes:
Tell him that I didn't mean it the way it sounded.
That's right, I've seen you make toast.
The guests will be here pretty soon, so please get ready to help serve them.
There's enough problems in the world already, Chuck...
They invited the great Indian chief Massasoit...
This is Chuck. I mean, Charlie Brown.
This is not unlike another famous Thanksgiving episode.
This isn't like that one at all.
This time I'm gonna kick that football clear to the moon.
This will be okay with your folks, won't it, Chuck?
Those early pilgrims were thankful for what had happened to them.
Three guests for Thanksgiving and I'm not even going to be home.
We could hold hands under the table.
We don't have any time to play, Snoopy.
We have to write an essay on Stanley Miles.
We should just be thankful for being together.
We thank God for the opportunity to create a new world...
We were supposed to be served a real Thanksgiving dinner.
We won't even be home.
We'll help clean up the dishes and everything.
We'll keep these intimate things to ourselves, okay, Chuck?
We're all invited to Charlie Brown's grandmother's for Thanksgiving dinner.
We're gonna be a little late.
We're supposed to be at Grandmother's house...
We're supposed to be there by 4:30.
We've got another holiday to worry about.
Well, I don't know, but I'll try.
Well, I, uh....
Well, I, uh....
Well, I, uh....
Well, if it's that important, a person should never turn down a big honor.
Well, it's just Linus and a girl named Marcie...
Well, kid, I'm gonna go like this.
Well, the problem is
Well, there's only one thing wrong with that.
What are we going to wear to this big Thanksgiving party, sir?
What are you gonna do on Thanksgiving, Charlie Brown?
What blockhead cooked all this?
What did you expect? A turkey card?
What have I got to be thankful for?
What kind of a Thanksgiving dinner is this? Where's the turkey, Chuck?
What time are you going over to your grandmother's, Charlie Brown?
What? Oh, hi, Snoopy. Come on in.
What? You mean it? Hey, Peppermint Patty, great news.
What's all the commotion?
What's that got to do with anything?
What's that, Charlie Brown?
What's the matter, big brother?
What's this? A piece of toast? A pretzel stick? Popcorn?
Where's the mashed potatoes? Where's the cranberry sauce?
Where's the pumpkin pie?
Why don't you come along, Linus?
Why don't you just call her back and explain it to her?
You can't butter it, but maybe we could help you.
You can't explain anything to Peppermint Patty...
You cook the first one yourself for your friends...
You heard what Linus was saying out there.
You mean Miles Standish.
You see, I invited a few friends over and they're still here.
You were kind of rough on Charlie Brown, weren't you, sir?
You'll pull it away and I'll land flat on my back and kill myself.
You're holding my hand, Chuck. You sly dog.
Apologies accepted, Chuck old boy? Sure.
Hello? PATTY: Hi, Chuck.
Hi, Chuck. Hi, Peppermint Patty.
Hi, Franklin. Hi, Marcie. Hi, Chuck.
Now what's wrong? Now she's bringing Franklin too.
Oh, brother. Now what?
Okay, I guess. Do you kind of miss me, Chuck?
Psst. Come here. See you later, Charles.
Remember that great kid, Marcie? Sure.
Well, I, uh.... That's okay, Chuck.
You go and speak for me. Well, okay.
...and a girl named Peppermint Patty
...and all they have are things for Christmas.
...and Captain Miles Standish?
...and he's sure his folks will let him come.
...and I'm not even going to be home. I'm going to be at my grandmother's.
...and our safety in a new land.
...and that the dinner is okay with me.
...and then you go to your grandmother's with your family for the second one.
...are all going over to my grandmother's for dinner.
...because you never get to say anything. I'm doomed.
