They say it free on Apple tv but I do not have a computer to watch it on.
I want to watch A Charlie Brown Christmas on ABC in December 2020.
Alia… A Charlie Brown Christmas will stream exclusively on Apple TV+. Watch it for free from December 11th until December 13th. It will NOT air on ABC in 2020. Just a heads up 🙂
It’s just an outright travesty that the most recent showing of “ACBC” on December 2nd there were numerous scenes deleted in order to make room for more commercials. It’s just shameful that a holiday classic such as this gets butchered in this manner. As soon as I noticed this I stopped watching. After all you don’t play card games with a deck containing less than 52 cards.
That’s why I bought the dvd. Screw the network.
Ditto for me SFC Bob!
COOL!!! Will watch it both days. Except in 1969 & 1970 when my dad was stationed out of the U.S., I have seen this every year since it came out in 1965. to me, it is not Christmas without this!!
I love this too! It feels like christmas anytime I watch it. My family watches it every year!!!!
