The film was created by Charles Schulz and is based on the story of Charlie Brown and his friends during the holiday season. The characters are all voiced by actors who are well-known for their work in popular culture. This year, “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” will air on CBS on November 25th. If you’re looking for a festive way to spend your day, this is the perfect movie to watch.


Generations have grown up with Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Woodstock, Lucy, Linus, Peppermint Patty, and the entire Peanuts gang from Charles Schulz’s comic strips. After the announcement that Apple+ would be the exclusive home for Peanuts specials (including both A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and A Charlie Brown Christmas), fans were outraged.

As a result, the specials were scheduled to air on PBS in 2020 and 2021, in addition to being available on Apple TV+. However, PBS will not be streaming it in 2022. That said, you still have an opportunity to watch for free without a subscription. Here’s how you can stream A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving this holiday season.
