Girls Gone Wild, and Other New Charlie Brown Specials
Charlie Brown fans rejoice! The animation division of ABC television has announced a whole slew of new specials about good ol’ Charlie Brown and the whole Peanuts gang to hit the airwaves over the next three years. “This is very exciting for us.” Says Steve Mallory, Executive Vice President of ABC Animation. “It’s long overdue for Charlie Brown and the gang to enter the 21st century. True, the old specials are classics. They are forever embedded in the collective heart of the world.
The new specials will in no way diminish this. That said though, it is a new age that we live in.

And Finally…
Charlie Brown and the gang are crossing a treacherous mountain pass when the blizzard of the century kicks up leaving them stranded with precious little supplies and absolutely no food. Somehow, some way, Charlie Brown becomes the leader of the group and he is forced to make the difficult decision that in order to stay alive, they must sacrifice Linus to have food enough to sustain them until the thaw comes and they can get off that God-forsaken mountain. So that’s what they do, they eat Linus to keep themselves alive.
A few days later however, the snow melts and they get to where they were going. Then, the special is really about Charlie Brown coping with the trauma of having cannibalized his best and some would argue, only friend. Sure, Linus would call Charlie Brown a “Block Head” but he called him that with an irony that can only be appreciated by true, life-long friends. Charlie Brown is never the same after the mountain experience. Not even frequent visits to Lucy’s psychiatric booth can help him find the inner peace he lost in that blizzard of snow and hell.
So, finally on Halloween night, out in the Pumpkin Patch where he laughed so many times at Linus as he waited in for The great Pumpkin to appear and declare his patch the most sincere, drunk and hopped up on crystal meth, Charlie Brown with a Smith and Wesson taken from Schroeder’s dad’s gun cabinet blows his own brains out. The name of this most provocative Charlie Brown Special ever is, YOU’D STILL BE ALIVE TO TODAY IF SCHROEDER’S DAD HAD BEEN A RESPONSIBLE PARENT AND LOCKED THE GUN CABINET CHARLIE BROW.
