Happy New Year, Charlie Brown Part 1 of 2

[trombonegirl131]

Charlie Brown ur silly. No one else is worrying about the book.

[rxmcdonogh]

Charlie Brown jinxed himself by saying yes she hasn't given us an assignment yet. And y isn't Linus even worrying about reading war and peace he's just doing whatever he would normally do?

[Violet2279]

By I've I mean I'm

[Violet2279]

They are so young, why is he reading War and Peace? I'm gr. 5 and I've never read that.... Maybe cuz I've from a different country....

[nellie2581]

Very nice

[obsessionchik4]

Linus is one of the youngest kids and yet he is the smartest, not to mention voice of reason on occasion

[ReiOn8]

I love Sally............

[mario11709]

charlie brown miss midnight

[seemadan]

The funny thing is that, when I saw the thanksgiving special I could not tell if peppermint patty was a boy or a girl, especially when it was a boy who provided her voice in that special.

[Akron162]

why charlie brown and lucy just dont give up and start dating or something?

[stormleone31]

wow!!!!! thats a big snowball!!!!!!!! :O

[aussietramp89]

I want to dance like them!!

[TimothyMably]

9:49 Damn it, Rerun.

[TDWard0927]

Happy new year, YouTube! I always look forward to watching this at the beginning of every year. Unfortunately, I don't have TV, so I'm quite dependent on online sources for my entertainment. Thanks for uploading and, once again, happy new year!

[Vinwar100]

Here's hoping 2012 will be better!

[irishgirl993]

Christmas just passed, so wishing all a happy upcoming 2012.:)

[sillygrl23]

4:15-4:25 So I take it this was before video rental stores existed?

[ladybug061997]

School

[ladybug061997]

I read college books or that cause my talents in schook

[screamDiNA]

My sweet baaboo <3 LOL

[ShinigamiChick39]

@jamesjamesjac he was lecturing chuck before about him procrastinatiing to read the book, so I guess Linus already readit

[MickeyMouseROCKS13]

Why are they reading War and Peace?! They're like in 3rd Grade!

[Shotgunryugan]

Only BlockHead's dislike the video!

thanks for uploading!

[Bull1908]

Man what teacher would give a kid war and peace to read for school? What educational value should the teacher give them that they need to read? It took me 3 months to read that book and understand.

[iheartryanstyles]

I bet they would probably have an e-book of war and peace now

[supersexyghotmew95]

@isre100 well duh!!!! Of course she is that's the whole point XD

[isre100]

Peppermint Patty sorta looks like a tomboy

[trombonegrrl1]

These were always some of my favorites growing up, and I love it even more now that I heard the motif from Tchaikovsky 4, movement 4 in the War and Peace scene :)

[BrianCD85]

Happy nostalgia Charlie Brown!

[AnukTheMaster1000]

This time I'm gonna kick that football clear to the moon! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH­HHGGHHHHHH! *Boom*

[anythingfun13]

How In god's name can anyone dislike the peanuts?!?



[steamerthesteamtrain]

new years bah humbug

[jamesjamesjac]

Am I the only one that notices that no one else is doing the assignment? Isn't Linus in his class?

[MichaelSar12IsBack]

@jamesjamesjac YES, thank you! Either Charlie Brown's teacher was such a jerk that she only gave him the assignment or he was the only one that bothered to actually READ it (and his reward? A D-minus!).

[SyntaxMagenta]

@KodyBoy555 If only there was anything happy about the new year. If it was the 70s, 80s, or 90s, I'd agree all the way, but to me 2010 was a joke & 2011, was even worse. I just hope SOMETHING good/useful/decent happens in 2012...

[alauclair]

is charlie the only one actually doing his book report

[ClassicGabriel]

Thank you guys for watching the video

- from my second channel

[TheBertonex19]

i watched the comedic version of war and peace...love and death

[joroserocks]

also--thanks so much for posting; could you post more, like the great pumkin? thanks!

[TheBertonex19]

can you get rid of the all rights reserved

[joroserocks]

haha thanx! i remember watching this when i was a kid. this is adorable. but y r the teachers making the adorable little kids read war and peace over winter vacay? they should read an abridged version. lol XD i <3 rerun

[paulborri]

Nobody can read a book war and peace and write a book report about it, it's difficult and ridiculous.

[strudel89]

There are teachers who do that sort of things actually,but not making kids do reports of books that have 1136 pages

[BejnXander]

How come the other kids aren't doing the assignment?

[Gaz66d]

@BejnXander my only insight would be that the teacher set the assignment at the begining of the semester, and Linus had already finished it by like October (he's a smart kid) but Chuck forgot, and the teacher was Just reminding them that their deadline for the book report was due on the first day of term, and if it wasn't already done it would be the last chance. But that's just a complete guess, but it makes sense to me.

[BejnXander]

@Gaz66d Hmm it seems the most logical explanation. Just need to explain why they are doing their assignment on War and Peace xD

[Gaz66d]

@BejnXander True, it IS rather a lengthy and irrelevant book to an 8 year old. What 8 year olf needs to know the horrors of war? I cry sometimes when a child in a war stricken land watches soldiers shoot their parents... cos that child will grow up hurt and broken and join a militia and the cycle begins anew. Are they hoping that by making kids read War and Peace they'll see the horrors of war and learn the value of peace, cos to me this wasn't that kind of book. It made me paranoid.

[sujo0201]

You mean you couldn't put the banner at the bottom of the picture?!? Right through the middle... really?!?

[mely5800]

WAR AND PEACE!! im turning 15 monday and i ve nvr read it!!

[Tithan85]

Linus is a freekin genuis!

[corn8611]

MOVE THE ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TITLE!

[clairemarksnoopy]

linus actually asked charlie brown when sally was 2 wks old, "when i'm 22 and sally is 17, do you think she'll go out with me?"

[Mr8bitgamer]

whats the song at 06:27?

[earl77]

@Mr8bitgamer The song was "Slow slow quick quick" sung by Desiree Goyette, best known for her singing on the 1982-1991 Garfield specials. She has a fantastic voice.

[Mr8bitgamer]

@earl77 love her voice!

[van8ryan]

@earl77 >> She was also the voice of Nermal from Garfield and Friends.

[earl77]

@van8ryan I also loved Garfield and Friends, I was sad when it ended in 1995, it was the end of an era, the last great Saturday morning cartoon.

[Adam10Rocks]

Patty Was From Happy New Year, Charlie Brown.

[VanillaNEKO69]

it doesn't look like page 5 though O.O

[Zinlol]

LOL SQUARE BALOONS! So much win!!!!

[kodatastical]

MY FAVOURITE EPISODE EVER! :D

[sunnygurl09]

"I am not your sweet baboo! And I wouldn't invite you too a chicken race!"

"I AM NOT YOUR SWEET BABOO! And I wouldn't invite you too a garage sale!"

LMAO! XD Linus is a trip!

[U1986NuclearGrounds]

In the style of tvtropes.org:

It's too bad the Li'l Folks never had a New Year's special, much less one that might've premiered on this commentor's birth year. Flashbeagle is the closest thing to such. I mean, what were they gonna do? Adapt that book report storyline and change it from Gulliver's Travels to, I don't know, maybe War And Peace? And fer that matter, have Linus flirt with Heather? No way they'd be THAT cruel to Charlie.

[AlextheGreat011]

So long forever chuck

[AlextheGreat011]

I am snoopys biggest fan!!!! I love snoopy!!!!!!

[NatWolff43567890]

y does he have a deep voice

[suzelibrarian]

Charlie Brown needs a Kindle - he can listen to it and it's free from Amazon.

[JustToSuscribeXD]

LOL i cant stop laughing through the entire movie

[mcrf23]

Great, the best clip so far for Charlie brown, thank you!

[MICKEYMOUSE9109]

i love charlie brown!! i never seen this one b4. thanks 4 posting it up : )

[animalcrosser591]

I... I think I need to read War and Peace now. Linus made me feel bad.

[PestramiShowALT]

9:49 Rerun makes a long stick of butter out of a balloon. :P

[PestramiShowALT]

A DIP PEN! D: Woah thats tradgic.

[GameAtHeart]

I'll wait till another Upload that someone makes that doesn't have a "Banner".

[MISCrazyaboutvideos]

Rerun blowing square balloons is one of my favorite scenes. XD.

[SierraStarlight7770]

Who makes 8 year olds read War and Peace??

[jemerson722]

@SierraStarlight7770 : Obviously Miss Othmar, that sadistic trombone speaking sadist.

[AlextheGreat011]

@SierraStarlight7770 I dont know

But I am with you

[Manyskins]

@SierraStarlight7770

The same people who give an eight year old a rock on halloween. Charlie Brown lives in a town filled with sadists.

[Rombizio]

@SierraStarlight7770 A very good school system?

[author1251]

@SierraStarlight7770 I was just saying that myself...that's awfully heavy reading for gradeschoolers.

[bcakapinky]

@SierraStarlight7770 I've heard of the novel "War and Peace," but I've never read it. Besides, I can't read that long of a book like that.

[Nova7400]

@bcakapinky

I bought the book and A Tale of Two cities and haven't read them yet. I guess I just wanted them because they're well known.

[007leonn]

@SierraStarlight7770 apparently Kids in the 60's and 70's where more dedicated to school then todays majority that get pregnant and quit school..lol

[TheBookWorm1718]

@007leonn Ain't it the truth? But a lot of shows did this, had kids read books that would be too advanced for the same aged kids in the real world. Like in Boy Meets World, 7th graders reading Grapes of Wrath, but is it a bad idea? I was always in advanced classes so when I was 8 I read Robinson Crusoe, at 10 it was Lorna Doon, and Theras and His Town, The story of a Bad Little Boy, we didn't get a lot of traditional books to read but we worked hard and were proud of it.

[ThoGunArm]

they all sound high pitched.
