Peanuts Thanksgiving and Christmas Special to air on PBS

News Peanuts 







     Previously on the blog, we told you that the Peanuts holiday specials were leaving ABC and going to Apple TV + exclusively.  It was move that wasn't  completely embraced  by people.  The "Great Pumpkin"  didn't air on TV this year, and was Apple TV Plus, there was a free two day window. They also offered  free windows for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  That free offering still requires an apple ID and  credit/debit card number that's not used for payment , but still.

       Wednesday, it was announced that the Thanksgiving special and Christmas special will be airing on TV after all, the network being PBS.  Yes, that PBS. PBS will be airing "A Charlie Brown" Thanksgiving Sunday, November 22nd at 7:30e/ 6:30c.  " A Charlie Brown Christmas" will air Sunday, December 13th at 7:30/6:30c. 



    These specials will air on PBS and the PBS Kids channel (which is on many PBS sub channels and website/app) The specials will still be on Apple TV Plus with the free window dates (Thanksgiving November 25th to 27; Christmas December 11-13).  This is a good move and you will be seeing Peanuts specials un edited without ads on PBS! 

      Sadly, the traditional broadcasts of  "Mayflower Voyages", "I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown", and "Happy New Year, Charlie Brown" have been mentioned for anything.
