Description

We review 1966's It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, which spends surprisingly little time beating up on Charlie Brown

Topics of discussion include:

• Lucy's unchecked power;
• the briefest suggestion of functional sibling relationships;
• denominational divisions;
• the existence or non-existence of a restaurant called "Broccoli Hut";
• gauntlets of scolding;
• the flattering soft focus lens of childhood nostalgia;
• 45 minutes of a dog being shot at

It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown is available for your home viewing on iTunes, Amazon Instant, YouTube, and DVD.
