The Great Pumpkin arrives!

Or so Linus thinks. Reminder that the Charlie Brown halloween special comes on tonight at 8/7 Central on ABC.

I liked it better when it was on CBS because when I last saw it on ABC, they cut out the part where Charlie Brown tries to kick the football after the pile o' leaves scene. (It's right at the beginning.)

It was cut once again.
I liked it on CBS because it was always preceded by the colorful spinning "Special" (http://www.tv-ark.org.uk/international/video/cbsspecial1987.rm). Anyone remember that. 80% of the time, the colorful spinning "Special" meant cartoon!!

I have Charlie Brown Great Pumpkin on tape with the CBS spinning special thing on it. Brings back memories of childhood when I see that.

That and those little CBS World News things that ran during commercial breaks on Saturday mornings.

Yup, the entire collection can be had, even those which aren't exactly holiday classics like "Its the Pied Piper, Charlie Brown!".

I burned a couple of copies and stored the originals away, because this is one collection that gets watched far more than normal.
