Netflix has released the second season of its holiday baking competition show Sugar Rush Christmas, and the first episode focuses on creating desserts built around A Charlie Brown Christmas. There’s some very delicious-looking stuff being made, and some enthusiasm for Peanuts being brought into play. There are a couple of minor cringy …

I don’t collect Peanuts action figures. I have accumulated a few over the years, but I make a point that the only thing I actually collect is Peanuts books; that is a sufficiently large and expensive hobby on its own. Which is not to say that I cannot appreciate the fact …

I have become fascinated by this Italian book cover for, well, every design decision, from the mis-centered face to the “C. M. Schulz” to the decision to color the collar as if it is skin. What, does Charlie Brown have gills?

As seen in this article in Variety, Apple is pulling off a brilliant public relations move by allowing broadcast airings this year of A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and A Charlie Brown Christmas… on PBS!
