      Charlie Brown: We've got ANOTHER holiday to worry about. It seems Thanksgiving Day is upon us.

      Sally Brown: I haven't even finished eating all of my Halloween candy!

      Linus van Pelt: Sally, Thanksgiving is a very important holiday. Ours was the first country in the world to make a national holiday to give thanks.

    • Crazy credits
      During the closing credits, Snoopy and Woodstock both have a slice of pumpkin pie.
    • Alternate versions
      The version of "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving" that aired on CBS in the mid 1980s trimmed the segment with Snoopy and Woodstock getting dressed for the dinner after setting up the table. It cuts from the scene after Snoopy pulls out his costume and a small hat for Woodstock to the scene where they walk up to the house.

    holiday fun!
    I have always enjoyed these "Charlie Brown" specials as

    I called them...It always tells me a holiday will be coming shortly when i watch this on television. there is a weird quality to these specials...they are children oriented, but they seem to have a lot of strong messages

    behind them for anyone of any age....like Linus's speech

    about Massasoit--a young one who loves his blanket and

    sucks his thumb, and to be so smart is like an oxymoron, a mature child..I'm sure we can all relate to one of the

    characters in a way!
