A Tradition
Born in 1965, A Charlie Brown Christmas continues to delight children of all ages. I've personally viewed it at least 100 times.
The plot revolves around an adorable round-headed boy striving to find the true meaning of Christmas among the glitter and commotion of commercialism. Are you, however, familiar with some subtleties that add a little more personality to the story such as what Lucy really wants for Christmas or which character does not appear in the story? If you're interested, try this quiz on Fact Monster. If you'd like to see more of the gang, visit the official Peanuts web site.

A Super Article about this Charlie Brown Classic
A Charlie Brown Christmas is the first prime-time animated TV special based upon the comic strip Peanuts, by Charles M. Schulz. It was produced and directed by former Warner Bros. and UPA animator Bill Meléndez, who also supplied the voice for the character of Snoopy. Initially sponsored by Coca-Cola, the special aired on CBS from its debut in 1965 through 2000, and has aired on ABC since 2001. For many years it aired only annually, but is now telecast at least twice during the Christmas season. The special has been honored with both an Emmy and Peabody Award.
A Charlie Brown Christmas is also one of CBS's most successful specials, airing annually more times on that network than even MGM's classic motion picture The Wizard of Oz. Oz was shown thirty-one times on CBS, but not consecutively as the Charlie Brown special was; between 1968 and 1976, NBC aired the 1939 film.
