There are some TV specials that are perennials. For many people, the holiday specials based on Charles M. Schulz’s Peanuts comic strip are something to watch annually. The tradition started with A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965), followed by It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966). Seven years later, Schulz tackled Thanksgiving with A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. The special first aired on CBS on November 20, 1973, two days before the holiday.
