Thanksgiving is just a few hours away! If you’re like my family, you’re probably already working on your Thanksgiving meal. But, if you’re not, don’t worry! Take a lesson from A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. Snoopy, Linus, and Woodstock didn’t have much time but they still came up with a feast fit for a… well, maybe not a king or a queen but still, they did their best.

In this special, Charlie Brown has unexpected guests coming for Thanksgiving. Luckily, Snoopy, Woodstock, and Linus are there to help him prepare a meal. Toast and popcorn balls might not seem like a typical Thanksgiving dinner but, as this special shows, it’s not the food that makes Thanksgiving special. It’s the company.

I have always enjoyed watching A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving every year and even though Peppermint Patty was bossy and rude to Charlie Brown, complaining about the nontraditional cuisine, it's my all time favorite Peanuts special and that scene is part of the reason. It's one of several scenes with Snoopy and Woodstock that sight gags can be best done without any dialogue. That one of course, was done to the strains of Linus and Lucy.
