It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown

It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown is a television special based on the comic strip Peanuts. The special, the first Christmas-themed Peanuts special since the inaugural A Charlie Brown Christmas in 1965, consists of several different Christmas-themed storylines adapted from the strip:

• Charlie Brown tries to sell wreaths door-to-door to make money so he can buy Peggy Jean a nice pair of gloves.
• Peppermint Patty worries about her Christmas book report.
• The gang participates in a Christmas play, where Peppermint Patty reluctantly plays a sheep and Sally messes up her single line. (The line relegated to Sally was "Hark!", but instead she shouts "Hockey Stick!"-- which was taken from a 1980s storyline in the comic strip)

Although it was first shown on CBS on November 27, 1992 (and would be the last Peanuts special to have its television premiere on that network), a VHS release was made available at Shell gas stations a few months prior, which would make this the first Peanuts special released directly to video. Paramount gave it another video release in 1996, and it can now also be seen as a bonus special on the DVD of A Charlie Brown Christmas. It was dubbed by Universal Studios.
