It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown | comment |
The 36th Peanuts TV Special, It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown originally aired on CBS on November 27, 1992.The spiritual successor to A Charlie Brown Christmas, this special opts for a vignette format showing what sorts of antics the Peanuts characters get into around the holiday season. There's more of a focus on the secular aspects of Christmas, but some focus is still given to the religious aspects of it. Similarly to other vignette-style Peanuts specials, a majority of the vignettes are directly adapted from the comic strip (the Nativity play subplot had previously been adapted into the short "Play" in the series finale of The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show in 1985).It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown is notable for being the final Peanuts special to be broadcast on CBS. The next Peanuts special (1994's You're in the Super Bowl, Charlie Brown) aired on NBC, before they released two straight to video, ultimately returning to network TV on ABC in 2000. | |

It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown / int_237404cc | comment |
Ironic Echo: According to Linus, Lucy said last Christmas, "Why do we have to be nice to each other only on Christmas? Why can't we be nice to each other every day?" When she tries to force Linus to leave his television chair, he reminds her that she said that, causing Lucy to angrily storm off in defeat. | |

In-Universe Factoid Failure: When Peppermint Patty is writing her essay on George Handel's "Messiah", neither her nor Marcie happen to know Handel's first name, leading her to guess that it's Joe. | |

Butt-Monkey: Bizarrely enough, it's Linus who suffers the most this special; not Charlie Brown. From being repeatedly cut off by Sally, to being tricked by Woodstock and the Beagle Scouts, to Snoopy dressed as Santa Claus jumpscaring him with a horn, to the three separate mishaps with his box sled. | |

One-Line Anxiety | |
It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown / int_6a52d957 | comment |
One-Line Anxiety: Peppermint Patty is worried that she'll end up flubbing her one line as a sheep, causing her to repeatedly say it out loud during other scenes. Once it comes time for her to actually say it, she indeed flubs the line. Sally practices her one line — "Hark!" — over and over, but when it's her turn, she blurts out "Hockey stick!" instead. | |

Repeated Rehearsal Failure: Sally is constantly practicing her line for the Christmas play, which consists solely of the word "Hark!" Come the actual performance, she suddenly exclaims "Hockey stick!" instead, much to her dismay and humiliation. | |

Art Evolution | |
It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: A minor example. As this was the second special not to be animated completely in America (here being assisted by Wang Film Productions in Taiwan, who previously animated Snoopy's Reunion), the animation and art are slightly different in this one and shifts between the usual Limited Animation style, and the more bouncy style of Wang. | |

Freudian Slip | |
It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown / int_e8ca5cb3 | comment |
Freudian Slip: Sally, being an angel for the school Christmas pageant, is instructed to say, "hark." When she's on stage, she accidentally says, "hockey stick," and nobody, not even her, knows why she said it. However, right before she left to attend the pageant, she walked by Charlie Brown, who was holding a hockey stick himself. | |
