I always enjoy watching this annual Halloween treat. It brings me warm memories of my childhood. Back then there were no DVD’s, no streaming apps, no DVRs to save the show to watch later. As a child you circled the date in the TV Guide of the shows you just had to watch. You waited oh so impatiently for the day and time it would air. If you missed it you were out of luck until the following year. Sitting on the floor glued to the tv set with 8 channels and rabbit ears hoping you got a great picture.

Seeing Charlie Brown in the ghost costume with all the eyes, always getting rocks instead of treats still makes me laugh. Not to mention the conviction of Linus sitting in the pumpkin patch waiting. But my favorite scene is where Lucy comes unglued when she was bobbing for apples and she accidentally kissed Snoopy. “My lips touched dogs lips…yuck…yuck….poisoned dog lips”. Oh the sweet memories. These cartoons will always be a part of my youth.
