A Charlie Brown Christmas is Always Worth Revisiting
(via Den of Geek) Charlie Brown’s admission of his Seasonal Affective Disorder, followed by Linus’ harsh rebuttal, isn’t how you would expect one of the most beloved Christmas television traditions of all time to open. It’s amazing how melancholy and introspective A Charlie Brown Christmas is. There are few references to presents, Santa is hardly mentioned, and there’s a fairly solemn and thoughtful reading from the Gospel of Luke right in the middle of it. For a special that was originally sponsored by Coca-Cola, A Charlie Brown Christmas is decidedly non-commercial.
