Everyone was shocked when ABC announced It’s The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown wouldn’t be airing on the channel this year, instead moving to the AppleTV streaming platform. AppleTV+ did allow non subscribers to view the beloved special for three days for free.
Since the first announcement, folks have wondered what would happen with A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and A Charlie Brown Christmas.
According to Variety, AppleTV+ is willing to share these beloved holiday specials with public broadcast tv. Yes Viriginia, there is a Santa Claus!
