Charlie Brown Christmas quotes.

Despite the fears of its producer and its director, since the day it was released, on December 9, 1965, Bill Melendez’s TV special based on the comic strip Peanuts, by Charles M. Schulz became a classic. After the special screening of A Charlie Brown Christmas, Time Magazine’s television critic Richard Burgheim praised the special and wrote that “A Charlie Brown Christmas is one children’s special this season that bears repeating.”

A Charlie Brown Christmas has become a Christmas staple in the United States, and established the half-hour animated special as a TV tradition, inspiring the creation of How the Grinch Stole Christmas! Lucy, Linus, Sally and of course Charlie managed to overcome their fears, loser attitude and Christmas depression, thus creating an unforgettable and engaging (the critics even called it haunting) experience that has lasted for half a century. These A Charlie Brown Christmas quotes are reminders of the 60’s, but also proof that novelty and going against the flow can sometimes turn out to be a real success.
