At the time, more than 263,000 fans signed an online petition protesting the removal of the classic specials from broadcast TV. “For over 50 years, we have celebrated the holidays with the airings of the Peanuts holiday specials on TV—first on CBS, then on ABC,” the petition read. “To our shock and dismay, last night it was announced that Apple had swiped the football from us and claimed the specials for their Apple TV platform, leaving us devoted fans who have grown up with Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang in the dark, unable to watch.” In response to these complaints, Apple relented. The week before Thanksgiving, the tech giant announced that they had struck a deal with PBS to air A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and A Charlie Brown Christmas on TV last year, without ads. The tradition continued in 2021, but fans of A Charlie Brown Christmas won’t have that luck in 2022—but that doesn’t mean they’re out of luck.
