[123Nikodemus]

[bowieluver1]

Charlie Brown is like my childhood. This is what I grew up watching and I'm from the generation where all teens are supposed to like rap and listen to hip hop and watch Tosh.0 and South park. I love Charlie Brown and always will :D

[luckydudebuyshouses]

How in the world can you not like the charlie brown holiday cartoons???

Classic scene! Thats all I have to say.

[Rathalos887]

Kid in the orange shirt has some serious swag.

[spainared73]

@Rathalos887 LMAO.

[oldredbarnman]

@Rathalos887 With 5 as your name, you definately have the swag!

[DHS11999]

@Rathalos887 His name is "555 95472" and he appeared in the comic strip in 1963. The two girls he is dancing with are his sisters, named 3 and 4. Their last name, "95472" is actually the zip code for Sebastopol, CA, where Charles Schultz lived.

[Rodes27]

19 People like Cashews

[groovescapes]

i've seen this scene unfold at several widespread panic shows...



[ROy1849]

Charlie Brown has cancer

[qtbluebari9]

now this is REAL dancing. where can i sign up??? XD

[eglbc]

white people dancing

[shortrocker13]

juliette lewis tweeted this lol

[U1986NuclearGrounds]

In short, an impressive start. The world could just explode for all those seeing their favorite comic moving on the TV screen. Time and time again.

[U1986NuclearGrounds]

Oh, I forgot to mention the established conventions: Charlie's depression; Schroeder's piano prowess; Lucy's crush on Schroeder (while flirting with Charlie a little bit; and to think that part only happened in the comics; Linus and his security blanket; Sally's crush on Linus; Lucy's psychiatry booth; Snoopy's various imitations and overall anthropomorphism; Linus' spirituality; Pigpen's dust...I think I'll stop right there.

[U1986NuclearGrounds]

Actually, I think only FIVE were rapidly aged: Schroeder, Sally, Lucy, Linus, Rerun, and to some extent, Charlie. (Yes, I know Rerun hasn't shown up yet at this point.) But in the cartoons, it seems the rapid aging syndrome only applies to Rerun. Everyone else ages normally.

So what's that hafta do with this scene? You're all witnessing what I call adaptive condensation. The cartoons have condensed the strips as people know them so far into this one point in space and time.

[U1986NuclearGrounds]

For those who have watched the special in full, if the earlier scenes haven't tipped you off by now, this one SHOULD. If you've also read the comics, you know that there were originally four characters: Charlie, Snoopy, Shermy, and Patty. And as time went on, more characters moved into the neighborhood. Some started out as babies that got rapidly aged to the point where they could form their own opinions.

[supersexyghotmew95]

@skrapdiddy SHERMY HIS NAME IS SHERMY

[trellmix1970]

now this is how u jam!!!!!!!!

[chupachiva]

I love this Song!! And the video!!

[gekko14]

[carpetmonk]

[ThisGuy0000000]

[brownies4you]

The twin sisters are definitely doing The Pony dance...so very 1960s.

[ElvisPresley2424]

The boy in green is doing the "Walking zombie"

The girl in a purple skirt is doing "Thriller"

The girl in the green skirt is doing "Disco robot"

The boy whith the blanket is doing "The chicken dance"

Lucy is doing the "Walking man"

And Charlie Brown just pulled a "Everyone stop enjoying themselves!"

[DeflatedRat]

Kid in the orange got MAD SWAG

[kville105125]

Like if you have this whole movie memorized.

[fslphillips]

Thriller, the running man...wow the dance moves are endless!

[Interminater]

0:17, droopy eyed armless children.

[ConWalsh]

This goes awesome with reggae music.

[noahmurad]

thumbs up if you think that the kid in the orange inspired Micheal Jackson/ is a god

[kedeeky]

i've been known to break into this dance while at work. my fave move is that of the guy in the orange shirt lol

[flighhy68]

Das ist doch mal ne Band!!!!!!

[dottiedots221]

We're doing YAGM, Charlie Brown at my school. All of us are doing this dance during the bows. I'm Woodstock and I'm doing Violet's dance :) Violet is doing another dance to reference to another play we did 2 years ago.

[brabon1]

@dottiedots221 good for you....and im so happy that there are still those in your age group that appreciate cool jazz

vince was a master

[dottiedots221]

@brabon1 thank you :)

[coptersoisoi]

I thought the Zombie (kid in the green) was the Moon Walk. I think Michael Jackson ripped Shultz off >:[

[faerienik]

Reminds me of a Phish concert--especially when I see Pigpen. LOL

[sidearmsalpha]

The kid in green is doing The Zombie. XD

[TheCrypticPie]

So many awesome dance moves.

[budbutt21]

Yeah finally an actual video of the old classic I love how the way they dance :D loll

[TressCam1]

Yeah!!!!!!! Linus is really cutting a rug!

[SwedxSimon02]

Way before its time, one and a half decade later people actually started to dance like this

[Marshmally823]

Dan Bergstein... I can never watch this scene the same way again XD

[kimhelena]

Charlie is such an ass-poopy!!

[uamusme77]

Well clearly the girl wearing the orange has a twin. Simple as that. :)

[Beatles206]

Y iz there two of the same gurl???

[iszalgocomin]

The orange guy....

[ohyeah0418]

the orange shirt dude was really killin' it! he's got moves!

[jeffgautreau15]

I went to my school dance and danced like the kid in the orange. I got the shit kicked out of me.

[msjazzmeblues]

Notice that the dancing girl in the purple dress is cloned and her mirror image is also dancing with the group. !?

[SANNAFABICH]

This is the pre-orgy dance. Shit will get real pretty soon.

[TypicalJAFO]

Man, Linus has got some moves!

[spaceylover]

i love the dude near the curtain....isn't that the running man? XD lmao!

[goldensmile8]

awwwwwww

[Shannonm22182]

0:12 xDD she's doing the thriller!! 

[AngelofDeath000013]

13 people fell down dancing to this

[2007pkd]

the one on the piano killed it!! :D

[rjmohun]

Anyone notice linus' dance? Try to do it and you see what I mean

[ericou812]

im 45 and i still watch the charlie brown holiday specials,the halloween special charlie brown gets rocks...charlie:i got a rock....hilarious. and when lucy holds the football n takes it away n charlie lands on his back,thats a classic and everyone calls charlie a blockhead,LMAO....oh the kid in green shirt in back doin the zombie dance,very original.

[WeAreAirborne]

Like this if Dan Bergstein sent you here.

[JuicyHabboNuts]

@WeAreAirborne

=D Cool.

[HunterWillie]

@WeAreAirborne My childhood sent me...who the hell is Dan Bergstein?

[cvdqr]

Love the girl in the green dress

[tanukidee]

@cvdqr I think she's checking her deodorant. XD

[trbrooks34]

LOL yeah, that kid in the orange dances like crazy. Almost looks like he has a broken neck.

[ROCKINA88]

i was at a choir concert to see one of my friends perform, all of a sudden they started singing this makin the notes and stuff, i just couldnt stop smiling, and i was EXTREMELY tempted to start dancing like the kid in the orange shirt, i never remembered his nname or if he had one, good times...

[shmuli9]

Has anyone noticed the two girls in purple are dressed exactly the same and also do the exact same motions?

[TheWillster14]

@shmuli9 theyre twins. imma addict so thats how i know

[shmuli9]

@TheWillster14 That makes sense. I LOVE this cartoon, even though it's SORT of bad quality... My fave two Peanuts TV cartoon moments are when Linus passes out in the pumpkin patch when he sees Snoopy, and when Peppermint Partty says "fold in eggs?  Well, eggs would be a lot easier to fold, if I fry them first..." in "It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown"

[xenophonon123]

Happy Holidays......Mele Kalikimaka...best wishes to you and yours!

[bloodangel160]

Phineas & Ferb did an homage to this in a Christmas episode. :)

[blkthingblkthing]

I cant believe that after 20 years this dance still make me cry laughing

[seesamfall]

wheres the black kid at? geez...

[shmuli9]

@seesamfall This came out three years before Franklin was added to the "Peanuts" roster...

[seesamfall]

@shmuli9 oh, that makes alot more sense then the peanuts characters being racist. :]

well thank you for enlightening me

[twilightedwardbella9]

I love the skit from the kids in the hall where they copy this!! :D

[rth095]

Pig-Pen on stand-up bass!

[spongebobslushpants1]

@EpicFailUnited lol they're supposed to be twins

[EpicFailUnited]

@spongebobslushpants1 ooooh. I forgot about that. Haven't seen any Penuts stuff until I got into art class and my teacher is OBSESSED with the Penuts. lol

[EpicFailUnited]

did anyone notice that the girl at 0:08 and the one at 0:11 are the same person?

[OROgoldenpair1]

@EpicFailUnited yeah, cause they're twins

[THB79]

The lad doing the zombie and my man doing the shoulder bounce are the bomb!

[day500champ08]

One of if not the most regonizable if not most famous piano compositions ever.

Here's to Charles and Vince, "Thanks Guys."

[ArigatoSan1000]

does anyone else find linus' dancing a tad inapropiate for a kid's movie?

[noahsmommieplusone]

@ArigatoSan1000 No children are born innocent.

[noahsmommieplusone]

@ArigatoSan1000 Kids are born innocent I think they just ran out of moves honestly.

[Zaebolista]

@ArigatoSan1000 Lol @ inappropriate

[BigBulgeCheeks]

@ArigatoSan1000 hahahaha hes fuckin sally on the sly...and we all know how snoopy has sex....by himself

[SuperC888]

[Asigner4u2]

[japanesesakamoto]

@Asigner4u2 you mean Roosevelt Island?

[Safiya1980]

Wow...I haven't commented on this in years. Sooooo glad everyone likes it! And @Cajunweeb, good for you for trying to monitor it...that language isn't necessary. Just enjoy the clip and keep your immature comments to yourself @PCTools25. Love these Peanuts!

[PCTools25]

Oh, Ok Cajunweeb you must be the hall monitor. HA HA... Get real.

[coolsweetgroovy]

I love Charlie Brown

[PCTools25]

You are so sensitive. The world has changed my friend.... Release it.

[FreekDOut]

Dude in green is mowing the lawn

[meghanlizadominique]

i love how the theme song is called "Linus and Lucy" when Charlie Brown is the main character :) i find it unique. when i was little i always thought the song was called "Charlie Brown Theme Song" but it isnt :) again, i find it unique :)

[hanoc101]

the curly haired girl, the guy in orange and the guy in green are tearin it up.

[WireMrMr]

The dude in orange is 5 95472, and the girls in purple are his sisters 3 and 4. They were a short-lived addition to the cast of the comic strip around the time this was produced.

[dudeokdude]

I never noticed the "twins" before...Hmmm.

[falalaxfearless]
