being pre-empted for some 40th anniversary of Charlie Brown.

It's pre-empted on November 20th and 27th for Charlie Brown specials too. This show is SO gone. There has been no orders for additional scripts or anything. I bet we see the rest of the 13 episodes in December/January and then Lost takes over the slot in February.

They aired promos for It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown last week during Cavemen/Carpoolers...so you should have known at the latest last week...but it was announced weeks ago. ABC always airs the Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas specials every season, usually Tuesdays at 8. They all do very well, too.

What is with the Charlie Brown bashing?

It comes on every year and has done so for over 40 years. HELLOOO????? That is like being surprised there is a football game in January called The Super Bowl.

I haven't seen any of the Charlie Brown specials in years, When did ABC start airing them? They were on CBS for as long as I can remember.

Actually it's in February.

Ireneparalegal · 10-30-2007, 04:56 PM

Superbowl was played in January.

ABC got the rights in 2003 and has been airing all of them, even Easter and Valentine's!

Last year they even aired "You've Been Elected Charlie Brown" because of the elections.

They aired an all new one too in November.

DSfan · 10-30-2007, 10:31 PM

I was going to watch it tonight but I enjoy the dumbness of Beauty and the Geek.

I too remember the specials being on CBS. Charlie Brown and then Garfield Halloween specials from 8-9 but for some reason I feel as if it aired on Fridays...
