"I got a rock."
Is it a tradition for anyone else to wait with Linus for the Great Pumpkin? :D

1. It's not Halloween unless I watch Charlie Brown
Saw it last night. I was 10 when I first saw it and it's the only holiday tradition I keep other than watching "A Charlie Brown Christmas."

4. I don't even remember
when I saw it first. Was it CBS that used to have the holiday specials in the 70s?

7. Every year
The scene where Sally goes off on Linus when it's clear that the GP isn't going to show makes me laugh so hard that tears come to my eyes. I've seen it at least once every year for over 30 years, and it still kills me every time.

"What a fool I was! I waited all night in a stupid pumpkin patch and all I got was a BEAGLE!!"

9. 1966-A real classic. We watched it last night
Some really interesting parallels made between religion and the great Pumpkin made on that.

We never miss it.

10. On Halloween night, the Great Pumpkin
rises out of the pumpkin patch to find the most sincere children on the planet...

Oh yes, must watch Charlie Brown. Especially since my Dad hated it and rarely let me watch it growing up. (Daddy hated cartoons or anything fantastical; it wasn't just CB)
