Thanks for taking the time to focus our attention on this sweet piece of pop culture. My mother and I, who have been watching that program most every year for the last 40 years, are sitting on the family couch now, remembering our own affection for the Charlie Brown special that started them all. It will always be the best. It always had the most heart in it of all of them. And those tender little voices... so heart rending.
Good job on getting enthusiastic and articulate commentators to underline what made this program special. Happy holidays to you.
