How to Watch ‘It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown’ This Halloween
As Halloween approaches, fans of the classic Peanuts specials are gearing up to watch their favorite characters, including Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and Linus, in the beloved holiday special ‘It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.’ However, the viewing experience has changed significantly since the specials were last broadcast on traditional television networks.
For years, Peanuts holiday specials such as ‘It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown,’ ‘A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving,’ and ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ were aired on channels like ABC, CBS, and PBS during the festive season. But in 2020, Apple TV+ obtained the exclusive rights to these Peanuts content, moving them behind a paywall.
Despite the shift, there is still a way to enjoy these classics without an immediate financial commitment. Apple TV+ offers a free trial, allowing viewers to watch Linus nervously navigate the pumpkin patch and Snoopy go trick-or-treating without spending any money. This makes it possible for both new and longtime fans to relive the nostalgic moments of the Peanuts gang this Halloween.
The move to Apple TV+ has centralized all the cherished Charlie Brown holiday episodes in one location, making it easier for audiences to access and enjoy these timeless specials. Whether you’re planning to go trick-or-treating or simply want to reminisce about fond moments with the Peanuts characters, Apple TV+ is now the go-to destination for all your Charlie Brown holiday viewing needs.
