All the Charlie Brown gear you'll want after watching It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
Tonight the Great Pumpkin will rise again, Charlie Brown fans. ABC will air the annual Halloween special It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown at 8 p.m. ET for the first of two showings this month.
While this evening’s version of the special is abridged at 30 minutes long, ABC will air the full-length, hour-long broadcast on Sunday, Oct. 27 at 8 p.m. ET, plus the You’re Not Elected, Charlie Brown bonus cartoon.
The animated special, based on the beloved Peanuts comic strip by Charles M. Schulz, first aired in 1966 and sees Charlie Brown and his crew celebrating Halloween. The special starts off with the gang going about some classic fall activities, with Linus and Lucy venturing to a local pumpkin patch to pick out a pumpkin and Snoopy and Charlie Brown raking leaves. Of course, as the title suggests, something called the Great Pumpkin plays a prominent role in the story’s plot, but we won’t share any spoilers here for those of you who have yet to see the holiday classic.
All you need to know is that your favorite Peanuts gang members, including Violet, Sally, Patty, and Pig-Pen, will make appearances. After you watch tonight’s shortened version, you’ll likely be feeling a bit nostalgic and excited for the full-length feature to air on Sunday. Then you can look forward to the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and Christmas specials, where the Peanuts characters will charm us all over again.
