“A Charlie Brown Christmas,” “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” and “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” will be moved exclusively to Apple TV+ this year, amongst other specials.
While the specials won’t be on televisions at all, “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” is already available on Apple TV+. It can even be streamed for free between Oct. 30 and Nov. 1.
The Thanksgiving special will also be free to stream as the holiday approaches, beginning Nov. 25 and ending Nov. 27. The Christmas special will follow the same pattern, with free streaming offered between Dec. 11 and Dec. 13.
