#Apple TV+ Adds More ‘Peanuts’ to the Mix!

It was announced today that Apple TV+ has teamed exclusively with Peanuts Worldwide—home of Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the gang—along with Lee Mendelson Film Productions and WildBrain Studios to become the home of “all things Peanuts.”

The deal, which expands the partnership that’s already brought us the Daytime Emmy-nominated Snoopy in Space and and the Daytime Emmy-winning Peanuts in Space: The Secrets of Apollo 10, as well as The Snoopy Show in February, means a slate of spiffy new content featuring the animated posse. Among the planned originals and specials so far are outings celebrating back-to-school season, Mother’s Day, Earth Day and New Year’s Eve,  a second season of Snoopy in Space and a 70th anniversary documentary.

On top of that, of course, will be past Peanuts programs, including Charles Schulz’s holy trinity of iconic holiday specials. It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown will begin streaming globally on Apple TV+ on October 19 and will be available for free from October 30 until November 1 as a special treat on Apple TV+. Likewise, A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving will drop on November 18 and stream for free from November 25 until November 27, while A Charlie Brown Christmas will begin streaming exclusively on Apple TV+ on December 4 and be available for free from December 11 until December 13.

Honestly, this is a better wish list of gifts than even Sally’s. (Then again, all she wants is tens and twenties.)
