On Sunday, Nov. 21, the classic television special “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” will air on PBS and PBS Kids and will be streaming on Apple Inc’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) Apple TV+.
This special, along with the Halloween and Christmas productions featuring Charles M. Schulz’s beloved Peanuts characters, have become staples of pop culture. They also inspired a genre of parody productions that frequently reconfigure Charlie Brown, Linus, Lucy and the others in ways that Schultz would never have imagined, let alone condoned.
