For the first time, ABC will air the classic 1974 special It's The Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown on Friday, March 25 at 8:00 pm ET/PT.

The Easter special is about Peppermint Patty trying to teach Marcie how to decorate eggs, Snoopy getting a birdhouse for Woodstock, and Linus convincing Sally that she doesn't need to color eggs because the Easter Beagle will bring them.

ABC normally only airs the Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas specials, along with the original ones they made like the baseball one. Don't miss this rare special on Friday, March 25! TGIF follows with 8 Simple Rules, Hope & Faith and Less Than Perfect.

I just went ahead and bought the DVD. I'm so glad I did. I haven't seen that special since I was like 7 or 8. Marcie was so hilarious in that one.

It's good that you did, for ABC snipped numerous precious minutes from it!

I figured they would. I liked the specials much better when they aired on CBS.

Ditto! I figured ABC would cut a few minutes out. Which scenes were edited out of the special? I'm glad I have the uncut special on VHS.
