Where And When To Watch ‘Peanuts’ Holiday Specials For Free In 2023

Making costumes, carving jack-o’-lanterns, and eating candy are all important parts of Halloween. So is a viewing of It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. The 1966 animated classic shows Snoopy, Linus, Charlie Brown, and the entire "Peanuts" gang getting ready for the holiday. Watching it is still a "spooky season" tradition for many families.
