Product: A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965)
Rating: 5.0
Christmas, Christmas, CHRISTmas!
This production stands at the top of my list of endearing Christmas classics, and for so many reasons. First of all, it has been around longer than me, so I have been watching this every Christmas for my entire life. But more importantly, I love this because it is one of the few non-Biblical Christmas TV classics that still CLEARLY touches on the true meaning of Christmas. I say buy this now BEFORE they edit it, or completely obliterate it from the planet. In a time when there are so many fighting to have and and all indications of Christ (including the word "Christmas" itself) so blatantly removed from what is now being simply called the "holiday" season, my worst fear is that there will come a day when this treasured gem will no longer be allowed on television for that very reason, or worse, having the "what Christmas is all about" scene just simply edited out.
