10 curiosità sugli special halloweeniani e natalizi dei Peanuts, A Charlie Brown Christmas e It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.

Lee Mendelson hadn't planned on a career in animation.

The result, A Charlie Brown Christmas, was seen by roughly half of all households watching television during its premiere on CBS on December 9, 1965.

Mendelson went on to produce other Peanuts primetime specials, but 1966's It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown remains one of the most endearing.
