It requires an hour of network airtime, something only two vignette-driven specials and two stage musical adaptations had previously commanded in the animated Peanuts canon. I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown is by far the longer of the two 21st century Peanuts Christmas cartoons.
Four additional Peanuts TV programs have since been created for ABC, two of which have been set at the season famously celebrated in the franchise's first and still best-loved animated outing, A Charlie Brown Christmas. The brain trust Schulz left behind, namely producers Lee Mendelson and Bill Melendez, put together the first post-Schulz cartoon in 2002's A Charlie Brown Valentine. But Schulz's contracts did not prohibit new animated television specials from being adaptedįrom the comics he had himself written and drawn. And Schulz had enough control and foresight to ensure that no one would be able to tell new stories in the beloved universe he created.
Poetically, his final comic strip appeared in Sunday papers just hours after his passing. When Charles Schulz died in 2000, Peanuts did not die with him.
