When I was growing up I always really enjoyed the Charlie Brown series of shows. Whether it was Snoopy or Charlie Brown, the stories were always interesting and for a kid growing up, they probably helped me more than I will ever know. I can’t even put my finger on why it was such an entertaining watch, it was never particularly funny but it just had something that kept you coming back for more.
As with all things from our youth sometimes we can get nostalgic and wonder about how things came to be. I mean one thing I never understood about Snoopy was why he slept on the roof of his kennel. Maybe someone out there knows the answer or maybe I am overthinking things too much.
In my quest to find out a little more about the Peanuts series I came across this wonderful video. It won’t answer all your questions, it didn’t answer the Snoopy sleeping question for instance, but it will give you some insight as to how the show came about, and some interesting trivia if that’s your thing. I sincerely hope you enjoy watching this as much as I did, and for the younger members of the audience, you don’t know what you are missing.
