  • The influence and joy brought by the Peanuts comic strip are explored the night before cartoonist Schulz's passing at the age of 77. The last original Peanuts strip was published two days after this broadcast on Feb. 13, 2000. A nice tribute to Charles Schulz with wide-ranging interviews.

    The time stamp says Feb.11, 2000, Schulz died Feb. 12 2000. It killed me when they mention at the end that Schulz was planning on writing more scripts for new cartoons when he got better.

      I'm guessing he was sicker than was let on. For him to stop drawing he would have to have been in advanced hospice care. My Dad was the same way when cancer took him. Still making plans for when he would get better right up until he died.

    If you’re not a fan of Charlie Brown, and his friends there is something wrong with your soul. I am 43 years old and I have loved Charlie Brown and the peanuts gang since I was old enough to know who they were. My fondest memory of my grandmother was how she always got a Charlie Brown Christmas tree every year and had a inflatable Santa Claus version of Snoopy on the front porch every Christmas

    The movies were the bread of butter of my childhood holidays , i was born in 91, it was rare i seen the comic strips or even held or read many news papers, but the tv specials and merch were my introduction. then i learned of his comic strip roots, but the holiday tv specials were more important to me than the Christmas tree or trick or treating lol. It set the tone, feelings that dont exist anymore . Or have became a shell of what holidays used to feel like.

      I remember the storyline where Charlie Brown went to the hospital when he got sick. Lucy was so distraught that she cried on Schroeder's piano! Anyway she made a promise to Charlie Brown that she will never pull the football away again if he got well. Well he got well and she kept her promise. Unfortunately he kicked her in her hand and broken it!

    This is a nice tribute to Charles Schulz I love this very much and all of the famous people they have on here.
    But the time stamp on this video makes me nervous because, this was broadcasted a night before Schulz's death and we're literally looking at his final hours counting down. Especially when it hits 12 o clock at 22:25 on the day of his death.
    Still love this nice tribute though. R.I.P Charles Schulz.

      I always wondered if CS was able to watch this special Nightline broadcast. I hope so. He passed away in his sleep the following evening - on Saturday the 12th - and his final Peanuts comic strip appeared in the Sunday papers, just a few hours after his death. RIP, Mr. Schulz.

    Peanut is about reality. It tackles the everyday experience of kids and how they coped with it through their school mates, friends, and pets. Sometimes Peanut shows how children escape reality through imaginary friends. I can very much relate to Charlie Brown and the gang because it reflects my childhood back in the days. I used to have a Snoopy lunch box and I used to hug it if things does not go well in school and like Snoopy I imagine many things just to get me by or console me if I have problems. Up to now at 49 I still watch Peanuts specially when I'm down, It gives me comfort in a sense, deep inside their is still a child in me.

    And will always look up to Charles Schultz.

    Repent and trust in Jesus. we deserve Hell for our sins. For example lying, lusing, saying God's name as a cuss word and stealing our just some examples of sin which we can all admit to doing at least one of those. For our sin we deserve death and Hell, but there is a way out. Repent anf trust in Jesus and you will be saved. Repentence is turning from sin. So repent and trust in Jesus. He will save you from Hell, and instead give you eternal life in Heaven.
