As incredible as it seems, CBS head man James Aubrey originally vetoed his network's presentation of the animated A Charlie Brown Christmas on the grounds that Charles M. Schultz's round-headed protagonist was a "loser" who wouldn't attract an audience! The story proposes that Charlie Brown is convinced that the true meaning of Christmas has been forgotten by his Peanuts friends, not to mention the rest of the world. "Psychiatrist" Lucy advises Charlie Brown to get into the holiday spirit by directing the kids' upcoming Christmas play.

Seller's Description:
New. Size: 7x4x1; A Charlie Brown Christmas" is at first pensive with scenes of snowfall. Christmas is not making Charlie Brown happy, in fact to me he seems a little depressed. Snoopy of course meanwhile steals the show by decorating his dog house. Some of the kids say really mean things to Charlie Brown which doesn't help his mood. The whole story line leads up to the moment where everyone finds out the real meaning of Christmas. Probably this is the highest rated Christmas special because everyone is really like Charlie Brown who is seeking deeper meaning in life.
