The Schroeder/Snoopy performance
[edit]I don't know my WW1 songbook as well as some of you, but a list of the names of the songs that Schroeder plays, moving Snoopy to ectasy and then into tears, would be a very wiki-worthy addition to this very well written article. It's that kind of trivia that I suspect keep people digging around in wikipedia.

Fair use rationale for Image:Greatpumpkin.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Greatpumpkin.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Why the tag in the plot section?
[edit]I see two images and no sound clips, so why did someone see fit to add the tag about "excessive" images? If you're going to put in a tag, you should at least add a reason for doing so on the talk page (as it says clearly inside the tag. I'm going to remove it for now. If someone wants to revert the edit, please give your explanation here.70.110.209.48 (talk) 01:18, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
Trivia and quotes
[edit]I'm removing the recreated trivia section, and I'm going to boldly remove the quotes as unnecessary, as well.--otherlleft 17:42, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
high-definition
[edit]The 2009 October broadcast looked excellent. Has this been re-digitized in high-definition? From what original films? Has this been issued on bluray? Which Peanuts TV shows exist in what hi-def formats?
fivecentsplease.org/tv/peanuts-tv.html#video_release_history says that only the Christmas shows are out on blu-ray as of 2009: "Also now available is the first-ever release of a Peanuts special on a high-definition home video format. Warner has released the classic special A Charlie Brown Christmas on Blu-ray Disc. The Blu-ray Disc features the main special remastered in high-definition 1080p video with a "newly remixed" Dolby Surround 5.1 soundtrack. However, it only includes the remixed surround audio; the original, monaural soundtrack for the special is not present on the Blu-ray disc..." -71.174.187.158 (talk) 02:50, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
In Jokes
[edit]Ironically when Schultz drew a Sunday Halloween strip-it was Linus who had a costume with two many holes in it-not Charley Brown. Also when Schultz drew this episode as a normal cartoon series-Charlie Brown did get Candy-not rocks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.83.126.88 (talk) 14:43, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
Why did Charlie Brown get rocks instead of candy?
[edit]Could it be that he was dressed as a ghost, and the ghost costume was made out of a sheet, and the sheet had too many holes cut in it? None of which is mentioned in the plot section before it mentions that Charlie Brown got rocks instead of candy. Way to fail.
I would change it if all of the edits that I've ever made to this website didn't get reverted for no reason.

Song missing
[edit]From the Music section, the song playing during the fallen Red Barron scene is not mentioned (and I'm unable to find it myself). It is apparently filler music throughout the entire show.
Note: in trying to find the song on Youtube, I heard an excerpt from it in the last thirty seconds of a cover of The Great Pumpkin Waltz, starting at 3:50. Would someone identify this song, please?

- This piece is called "Trick or Treat." The 2022 soundtrack release calls it "Graveyard Theme (Trick or Treat)" although it is obviously a different tune than the "Graveyard Theme" which is used for the opening credits. 2600:4040:5D38:1600:30F1:64DC:842E:AC76 (talk) 18:45, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
Theme?
[edit]This article calls both "Linus and Lucy" and "Great Pumpkin Waltz" the special's "theme." While both are featured prominently, and "Waltz" was written spcifically for this special, they are not used as the opening or closing theme. The music for the opening credits is called "Graveyard Theme," heavily overlayed with sound effects (thankfully absent on the 2022 soundtrack release.) The music for the end credits is "Charlie Brown Theme,"which goes back to the soundtrack of the unsold "Boy Named Charlie Brown." 2600:4040:5D38:1600:30F1:64DC:842E:AC76 (talk) 18:41, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
