So true Annie.

I first watched that special when it was only 8 years old and I was 6!

I just watched it less than 2 weeks ago on DVD. I don't particularly care for the "edits" ABC has made to make room for ads!

I miss Charlie Brown specials being on CBS,they showed the whole way through and I also miss that announcer,"It's The Great Pumkin Charlie Brown"!! "Brought to you by...McDonald's...and Dolly Madison"!

Ahhhh,the '70s.
