I liked the movie that Charlie Brown was in the spelling bee, though.
I don't remember that one. I think I'm a snob about which Charlie Brown TV movies I accept as canon.
Awww, c'mon that's one of the few theatrically released movies that's good. Don't you remember the word he misspelled?
JZ and I caught
Snoopy Come Home
on TiVo and she was getting all caught up in it and knew the songs.

Was it
Snoopy Come Home,
or another? I don't remember the spelling bee, which doesn't mean I didn't see the film; I just can't remember it.
Was Peanuts supposed to be funny? Sometimes it was (at least to me, age 5), but it was just as often sad or profound.
Calvin and Hobbes is brilliant, but doesn't really lend itself to categorizing people...unless there really are only two kinds of people in this world.
But if we're talking 80s, then...I call Binkley! With a dash of Milo.

I totally want a huge Bloom County box set like the Calvin set.
Billy and the Boingers 4evah!
We certainly could have used Bill and Opus in '04.
I'm collecting the Complete Peanuts volumes, and I now wonder if when I was younger I identified with Charlie Brown too much; it reinforced the idea that life was going to give me rocks and there was nothing I could do to change it.
Wasn't it Binkley who had the closet full of very strange monsters? That was always my favorite part of Bloom County. Well, that and seeing the computer geek deal with his clueless father. And the trips on the Starship Enterpoop. And Opus. Oh, what the hell--I loved it all, especially when Steve Dallas would get served his usual comeuppance.
