5.0 out of 5 stars I couldn't stop laughing, October 27, 2000

By	Marilee J. Fisher (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada) - See all my reviews

I would rank this video #1 in my growing collection. I couldn't stop laughing at the many short, well-orchestrated scenes of all the gang winding up in some sort of dilemma. My favorite was an angry Peppermint Patty attacking World War 2, the cat next door, thinking it was Snoopy dressed in disguise. Snoopy, of course, jumps in to save Peppermint Patty and the two of them end up sitting on top of Snoopy's house, survivors of the fight, scruffled and war-torn, yet laughing at how she tried to pull the "fake cat suit off" the cat. It was hilarious! And, as usual, the cat ends up slashing Snoopy's house to shreds. Every scene in this video was well-connected to the next and extremely funny.The introduction by Charles M. Schulz was very memorable to me. Have been a true Peanuts fan since age 14 and now 4 decades later the intensity is even greater.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comic strip pacing and hilarity, March 30, 2000

By	Anderson (Alexandria, VA) - See all my reviews

The pacing and feel of this Peanuts special is different than the other prime time specials, but it still works wonderfully. Some of the rapid-fire, short episodes provide some of the best laughs. Among the many chuckle-aloud moments, the ones involving Sally in the classroom are the best (watch for the facial expression after she "def[ies] anyone in this classroom to draw a good cow's leg!" That never fails to crack us up). Great for kids and parents alike, this 1980 special still seems fresh and contemporary (save for one Bjorn Borg reference that may leave youngsters wondering). Buy and enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars An hour of short, creative, hilarious skits!, January 30, 1999

By A Customer

This is probably my favorite of all the Charlie Brown TV specials. Okay, I haven't seen all of them, but it's my favorite of the ten or so I've seen. It's an hour of short, creative, hilarious skits. This format (more like the comics) allows the characters to do more "off the wall" type stuff because they aren't preoccupied with a long story or a holiday, as in some of the other specials. This is sad I'm reviewing cartoons, but I love this one! "It's woman against piano! Woman is winning!! Woman is winning!!"
