When Does ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ Air On ABC?

There’s no wrong way to Charlie Brown.

I love It’s the Great Pumpkin and A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, but I’ll always have a soft spot for A Charlie Brown Christmas. The festive music, stealthy sentimentality, and memorable quotes (“Charlie Brown is a blockhead, but he did get a nice tree.”) combine to make this holiday favorite a rewatchable classic.

Lucy: I know how you feel about all this Christmas business, getting depressed and all that. It happens to me every year. I never get what I really want. I always get a lot of stupid toys or a bicycle or clothes or something like that.
Charlie Brown: What is it you want?
Lucy: Real estate.

Good grief.
