Peanuts producer Craig Schulz, son of creator Charles Schulz, says there have been discussions about potentially creating new Charlie Brown specials centered on Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.Speaking to ComicBook, Shultz noted that the existing specials focusing on these holidays are revered, which presents a few challenges. “In all those cases, it’s led to extensive conversations between myself, my son, our group here in Santa Rosa, which consists of over 20 people, and what we think is right or wrong,” Schulz explained. “And we have had ideas for a [Charlie Brown] Christmas special, but the three biggies – Christmas, Pumpkin, and Thanksgiving – are so sacrosanct, we just won’t touch anything near that.Instead, the Peanuts team found ways to explore the fringes of these holidays to create new adventures. “We weren’t afraid to go on the edges, so we thought about that,” Shultz continued. “But we like the road we’re going down right now rather than just trying to play off something like that. So we’ll see where it ends up. New Year’s is a good example. We did [Snoopy Presents: For Auld Lang Syne], which is a play on New Year’s.”RELATED: 10 Most Beloved Running Gags In The Peanuts
