Celebrate Thanksgiving with Snoopy

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope all of you have so many blessings that you can’t possibly count them, no matter how long you linger over turkey and dressing.

If I may make a recommendation, consider celebrating the holiday with Charlie Brown, Sally and Snoopy.

“A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving,” created by the late Peanuts cartoonist Charles M. Schulz, is airing at 7 p.m. today on ABC (KOCO-5 in Oklahoma City). The 1973 holiday special isn’t quite as good or classic as “A Charlie Brown Christmas” or “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown,” but it’s still a great little story and lots of fun.

In the special, Peppermint Patty invites herself and a few other friends to Charlie Brown’s house for Thanksgiving dinner. Charlie Brown recruits Snoopy and his birdie buddy Woodstock to make the meal. Their menu – popcorn, pretzels and toast – doesn’t exactly thrill Peppermint Patty.

The bonus cartoon “This Is America, Charlie Brown: The Mayflower Voyagers” will air tonight with “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving.” It tells an animated version of the Pilgrims’ story.

Enjoy the calorie-free Peanuts with your holiday.
