Evening Entertainment: Celebrate Charles Schultz's birthday with 1985's YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN


Sure, there's a Peanuts Thanksgiving special to watch, but why not take a look at one of the more obscure TV specials based on Charles Schultz's beloved characters?  This 50-minute special originally aired in November of 1985 is an animated (and shortened) adaptation of the 1967 musical that starred Gary Burghoff (!) in its initial off-Broadway run.  Snoopy has a narrated voice, which is a bit distracting, but as an adaptation of the stage musical, it makes sense.
