    A Very Sweet Film...

    'I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown' is simply put, a very sweet film. Its honestly just one of the sweetest Peanuts specials released.

    Starring the Van Pelt kids (Lucy, Linus, and Rerun) and Snoopy this special is really all about Rerun and his pursuit of getting a dog for Christmas. This ends up involving Snoopy so you get to see the usual luster Snoopy brings to all scenes!

    From Rerun's dialogue to Snoopy and his siblings who all make some cameos, this special produces some peak adorableness of the Peanuts gang. Although the music is just average, the animation feels authentic and entertaining.

    Its a good Peanuts special and worth watching as a change up to the original 1965 Christmas special.
