Everyone loves Peanuts...especially at Halloween

Every year when my wife and I hold our annual pumpkin carving party, we play the "It's the great pumpkin, Charlie Brown!" on DVD, over and over again for the kids who are too young to be wielding carving utensils and creating artwork out of the pumpkins...and they watch it, over and over again. I still like to watch it as well. Something about Peanuts tv specials holds a special place in everyone's heart during the holidays.

This is why their collectibles are so popular, even beyond the Department 56 peanuts line.


Snoopy.com is the official website for Peanuts, and there is a lot of good content up there, including a fantastic timeline of Peanuts history.

"He'll come here because I have the most sincere pumpkin patch and he respects sincerity. Tonight the Great Pumpkin will rise out of the pumpkin patch. He flies through the air and brings toys to all the children of the world."
