The Peanuts special of the day is : "Why Charlie Brown Why"
since September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month , this is a Peanuts special about cancer. It came out in 1990. #Peanuts70
It was inspired by a nurse who wanted a special to help kids understand it , she thought Peanuts characters would be the best to explain it chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-19…
The special was nominated for a primetime Emmy , it lost to "The Simpsons" episode "Life on the fast lane" (rude emmys)
I think this is the most well known scene from the special, because it does get your attention, never really see Linus that angry.
My favorite Peanuts Movie is "Race for Your Life , Charlie Brown" I wish it had more boat race , but it's still a fun movie. #Peanuts70
Now, I will say that "A Boy Named Charlie Brown" is the best Peanuts movie, and it's the first movie, It does a good job of feeling cinematic , overall, it's my 3rd in my list of the 5 movies. (There's no movie I dislike from Peanuts) #Peanuts70
"Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown (and Don't come back)" is my second favorite. there's something to it that I enjoy. Plus you get to see Snoopy drive a car. It has a slightly darker tone to it at last 3rd #Peanuts70
Charlie Brown was first introduced on October 2, 1950 ,he's the only of the main characters from the start to stay a main character. #Peanuts70#CharlieBrownDay His name appeared first in "Li'l Folks" in May 1948
Early Charlie Brown was more assertive, snarky and playful than what he would become later. #CharlieBrownDay
Snoopy eventually ended up being Charlie Brown's dog, earlier strips didn't have a noted owner. His father is a barbe, and mother a housewife #CharlieBrownDay
Shermy was first introduced on October 2, 1950. He was first named on December 18, 1950 #ShermyDay
Even though, he was one of the first characters , Shermy wasn't long for the cast as he became more background when new characters were introduced. Even his role as Charlie Brown's best friend was handed over to Linus #ShermyDay
He did appear in a few specials like "A Charlie Brown Christmas" , "Charlie Brown's All Stars" , "It's the Great Pumpkin", "It was a short summer, Charlie Brown" a bunch of silent roles in specials and movies too #ShermyDay
