Taking advantage of the election season, the folks at Warner Home Video are moving the TV special You’re No<\/strong>\"You'ret Elected Charlie Brown<\/strong><\/a> from its former role as the second feature on Great Pumpkin DVDs to its own lead role on a DVD that comes out in early October<\/a>. Taking the “bonus feature” slot on that DVD is He’s A Bully, Charlie Brown<\/strong> (that’s the one in which Rerun loses his marbles), making its premiere DVD appearance. Add in a new documentary featurette on the making of He’s Not Elected,<\/em> and you’ve got a DVD, available for preorder now.<\/p>\n

And speaking of the election, you can now vote – for a Peanuts character! The folks behind Rock The Vote have teamed up with the Peanuts gang for the website PeanutsRockTheVote.com<\/a>! There, you can vote for which Peanuts character you would want to have as president (from a choice of five – but no, this is not a historic election like this year’s main race, so you can’t vote for Franklin or…. um… who’s a particularly old Peanuts character?), see the results from various states, read some election-oriented Peanuts strips, and get info on registering to vote in the real presidential election. (Because let’s face it, this Peanuts thing isn’t a real election. More of a non-binding referendum.)<\/p>\n

By the way – when they had that panel of former Peanuts character voice actors at Comic-Con, they rushed them all off afterwards to tape some interview material for upcoming DVDs. They’re putting some effort into these extras. Even so, I wonder just how many times the Making Of can be interesting (although there are some which could be truly different, like It’s the Girl in the Red Truck, Charlie Brown.<\/em>) I hope they find some other extras, like hte Peanuts film strips, and the various odd little bits.<\/p>\n

And remember, if you need to find any of the Peanuts cartoons on home video, head over to our list of released shows<\/a>. I leave up the links to the out-of-print titles, so you can find used copies when no new ones are available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
