It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown (1992)


This special is not as well known as A Charlie Brown Christmas, but in some ways, it lends itself more to rewatchability. A series of vignettes taken directly from the original comic strips, it showcases the brilliance of the witty four-panel structure very well. Storylines include selling wreaths door-to-door, Charlie Brown needing to raise money to buy a girl some gloves, and many of the Peanuts cast taking part in a Christmas play. Although it's not as well-regarded, it deserves to be watched in tandem with the original.
