    An entire neighborhood of adults agreeing to give one particular child rocks instead of candy on Halloween is a good bit.

    No matter how much I think I’ve memorized this wonderful special, there are always more jokes about legal terms and suing people than I remembered.

    Every neighbor gives a rock to Charlie Brown because Charlie Brown rocks.

    A Halloween favorite! I always feel bad when Charlie Brown keeps getting rocks in his trick or treat bag. LOL The score by Vince Guaraldi is haunting and gorgeous.

    This is pure Halloween nostalgia. It’s sweet, funny, and has that classic Peanuts charm that somehow makes watching Charlie Brown repeatedly get the short end of the stick entertaining. Poor kid gets rocks while everyone else gets candy. Absolutely brutal. Linus waiting faithfully for the Great…

    Classic. Charlie Brown be getting too much hate. Bag full of rocks from trick or treating is crazy. Snoopy doing snoopy things. Greatness is hard to capture but Charlie Brown knows how to do it.
