Team Snoopy

Now shipping is Happiness is… Peanuts: Team Snoopy, a DVD combining the TV special Lucy Must Be Traded, Charlie Brown with some sports-oriented material from The Charlie Brown & Snoopy Show.

I love the phrasing “An All-New Collection” There’s not any new material, just a new combination of things… and since it can say “An All-New Collection” on there for as long s they keep it in print. Really, it sounds like it’s saying something, but it isn’t. Besides, is there some way it could be a new collection but not all-new? Well, not really.

But despite any empty hype on the cover… it’s a disk filled with Peanuts animation. There ain’t nothing wrong with that!
