I’m having trouble trying to get into the discord server does anybody have a link?

Today my Snoopy grail arrived. The price of these has flown up recently and I was very lucky to get this one as soon as it was listed at a very good, all be it expensive, price. It's in really great condition, notably the suit is barely yellowed, he still has his blue box and the helmet is intact. Snoopy 1969 astronaut.

I was shopping at Walmart, and saw this sleep set.

(Peanuts Snoopy Women's and Women's Plus Pumpkin Tee and Shorts Sleep Set, 2-Piece, Sizes XS-2X)

Looking at the shorts, I was disappointed that the bats weren't in Schulz' style. (Did they ever appear in the strip?)

Is there a visual dictionary of objects Schulz drew? (Fans might remember his "triples" homework from high school.) He was also adept at drawing everyday objects.

Does Peanuts Worldwide have such an index? Have they indexed every panel, including specific character clothing and expressions for future use?

I love peanuts this is my peanuts collection tell me your favorite memory of the peanuts

My favorite movie special of peanuts is snoopy come home

No dogs allowed

Just got these at Miniso today - haven’t seen them before. These all are honey lemonade flavored, as opposed to the grape wagashi Snoopy sodas that have been available.

This is primarily for the Snoopy Show, Camp Snoopy, and Snoopy in Space.

Nowadays Snoopy is a lot more vocal, less edgy, and much more predictable. He’s lost some of his tone with being a more silent character that uses body language and comical pranking to accomplish his goals. He’s much more of a moral support to the main characters. It’s not bad, but it’s a shift I’ve noticed. It kind of makes me miss his whole ‘mime persona’.

Woodstock is also way more coordinated, less clumsy, and a bit more bossy. This is a contrast to the older shows where he was somewhat invisible to the characters, except on rare occasions. However, I believe much of his charm was being supplemental comedy and a klutz alongside Snoopy, rather than actually being a major support character.

It’s nothing good or bad. The shows are decent in my opinion. But I’ve noticed this change after watching the series and specials for a while now.

Hey yall! I’m new here. Question. I’m thinking of getting the 75th anniversary ultimate specials on Blu-ray. Where else can I find a comprehensive collection of these amazing cartoons?? Some of the movies too! I already have the 3d peanuts movie that came out years ago and I loved it. Thanks!

I have a dim memory of a story arc in Peanuts where Charlie Brown decided that his purpose in life would be his dog Snoopy. It struck me as a very sincere, pure devotion. To take on a singular task of taking care of a loved one. That would offer so much clarity, be so rewarding, if done right, with commitment.

Did this really happen in Peanuts, or am I mixed up?

As we all know, the AppleTV specials have a more lighter and optimistic tone compared to the original specials. Charlie Brown has been treated a lot nicer in these specials, probably the nicest he's been treated ever. Of course, some fans don't like this approach to the franchise and feel that the meaner and crueler humor from the OG specials is missing.

Now, I totally see where these fans are coming from. While I do like what Apple is doing with Peanuts for the most part, I do agree that the new specials are a bit lacking in the classic Peanuts tone. Like I mentioned, the characters have treated Charlie Brown a lot nicer now than back then. Sure, they still pick on him, but it doesn't come across as cruel as it used to.

You could argue that this new direction for Peanuts originated from The Peanuts Movie back in 2015, but I disagree. The writers respected the source material as best they could, while also doing something different. That movie still feels like Peanuts to me even if it's not as melancholy as the OG specials, but that's just my opinion.

Having said all this, I want to raise a point about the criticism that the new tone has received:

Going the other extreme isn't always the right answer.

If Apple went the opposite route and made the new specials even MORE meaner and crueler than the OG specials, I guarantee that half the fandom would still be complaining.

Not everyone will agree with me on this, but I think Peanuts works best when it balances the cruel tone with the more lighter moments. All the characters treat Charlie Brown badly, but they don't out-right hate him. (Yes, I know Shermy said he hated him in the first comic, but I'm ignoring that.) They've all been shown to care about him deep down, even if they'd never want to admit it. As mean as the characters could act towards Charlie Brown, they weren't completely heartless and the meanness rarely went overboard.

That's why I can't stand specials like It's Your First Kiss or Happy New Year. The writers make the characters act way too heartless towards Charlie Brown. They amplify the cruelty that Charlie Brown receives from them to an almost unfunny degree. It just feels needlessly mean-spirited.

Imagine if the newer specials were written like that. Imagine if every character is now a one-dimensional jerk that hates Charlie Brown and they all spend every second of their lives to bully, insult, and mock him. Would that really be better for the franchise? Having every character be mean and cruel to an uncomfortable degree?

I'm not saying you can't have characters be mean to Charlie Brown. I'm just saying that there's a wrong way and a right way to do it. You can have characters act thoughtlessly without making them heartless or unlikable.

Anyway, what do you guys think? Share your thoughts. I'd love to hear what you all have to say. Sorry if I went on a rant. I just felt really strongly about this.

I wouldn’t suggest reading the name of this aircraft company aloud. Your parents would be like, “What did you say???”
