![]() Starting in 2020, the special (along with the rest of the Peanuts library) will exclusively air on Apple TV+ under the terms of the agreement, Apple TV+ must provide a three-day window in November in which the special is available for free. From 2008 to 2019, the remaining time was filled by a slightly abridged edit of "The Mayflower Voyagers," the premiere episode of the 1988 miniseries This Is America, Charlie Brown. As the special runs slightly over a half-hour with commercials, ABC typically filled the remaining portion of the full hour with other Peanuts programming. In contrast to CBS, ABC aired the special every year through 2019, on several days in the week leading up to Thanksgiving, and it had regularly won its time slot. The Disney Channel and Nickelodeon returned the special for reairing in the 1990s (in the latter channel's case, under the "You're on Nickelodeon, Charlie Brown" umbrella of Peanuts productions) and then, in 2001, it moved, along with the rest of the Peanuts specials, to ABC. The special first aired on CBS on November 20, 1973, and continued to air every year on that network (skipping 1982, 1983, and 1988) until November 23, 1989. Over the end credits, the two friends each devour a large piece of pumpkin pie then sit back with contented smiles as Woodstock pats his full stomach. They then pull the wishbone which Woodstock wins. Snoopy and Woodstock go to the doghouse and cook up their own traditional Thanksgiving meal. Because (as spoken by Charlie Brown) his grandmother lives in a condominium. After they sing the final lyric(s), Charlie Brown says there is only one thing wrong with the song's name/title/lyrics. As they all pile into the car to go to the Browns' grandmother's, they sing " Over the River and Through the Wood". When he mentions his friends are there, and that they did not eat, his grandmother invites them all to Thanksgiving dinner, which is welcomed with cheers from everyone. Following this, Charlie Brown is reminded by the clock that he and Sally are due at their grandmother's house for dinner, so he calls her and explains his situation. Coming to her senses, Peppermint Patty asks Marcie to apologize to Charlie Brown on her behalf (unintentionally paralleling The Courtship of Miles Standish) Marcie reluctantly agrees, but Peppermint Patty soon follows and apologizes to him herself. While Sally also happily munches, Peppermint Patty's tirade continues until Marcie quietly reminds her that she had invited herself along with Marcie and Franklin. Peppermint Patty's initial shock at the unconventional meal quickly turns to outrage and loudly complains about the meal to Charlie Brown, who timidly leaves the table in response. While Charlie Brown happily munches, Peppermint Patty scowls about the Thanksgiving meal's food. Linus leads the group in prayer that details the First Thanksgiving in 1621, and then Snoopy serves up the feast. The guests arrive and make their way to the backyard for the Thanksgiving feast. Snoopy sets up a ping pong table and chairs (sparring with a lawn chair that comes to life) later, Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Woodstock and Linus prepare a feast of toast with margarine, pan-fried popcorn, pretzel sticks and jelly beans, then Snoopy dresses himself and a reluctant Woodstock (at pop-gunpoint) in Pilgrim attire for the occasion, though Charlie Brown rejects the latter idea. Charlie Brown says his cooking skills are limited to "cold cereal and maybe toast," so Linus recruits Snoopy and Woodstock to help. The first Thanksgiving feast can be for himself, Sally, Peppermint Patty, and the others, while the second one can be at his grandparents's house for his family. ![]() ![]() ![]() Linus suggests to a perplexed Charlie Brown that he could have two Thanksgiving dinners. Two quick subsequent phone calls from Peppermint Patty add Marcie and Franklin to the guest list for a dinner that did not exist. The Browns are preparing to go to their grandmother's for Thanksgiving dinner when Charlie Brown gets a phone call from Peppermint Patty, who is alone for Thanksgiving and wants to come over for dinner. In a cold open cameo, Lucy entices Charlie Brown to kick a football she is holding, calling it a Thanksgiving tradition she pulls the ball away as usual, stating that some traditions fade away. It was the third holiday special after A Charlie Brown Christmas in 1965 and It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown in 1966. It was originally aired on the CBS network on November 20, 1973, and won an Emmy Award the following year.
