Free Snoopy Weekend

Apple just announced that this weekend, you can watch all of their original programming for free (you will have to sign in for an account, but not a subscription.)

This means The Snoopy ShowSnoopy in Space, Camp Snoopy, and the new Peanuts specials that were created for Apple should all be available to you.

(If you want other things to try, our faves are:

  • Ted Lasso – inspirational and fun series about a US college football coach that suddenly finds himself coaching top-level UK soccer… and no, you don’t have to be a sports person for this one.)
  • The AfterParty – a whodunnit told over a season of episodes, each matching a different movie genre. If you liked Knives Out, worth a try.
  • Shrinking, an often dark but hopeful sitcom about a therapist trying to recover from the loss of his wife. Harrison Ford in a key supporting role really works.
  • Schmigadoon!, a musical comedy parody)

Officially, it’s a “Super Chubby”

When I reviewed the 2015 book adapting the TV special It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, I had this to say: The book that’s titled It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (adaptation by Kara McMahon, art by Scott Jeralds) takes basically the whole special and simplifies everything. It briefly tells you that Charlie …
