Whatever Happened to ‘A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving’s Voice Actors?

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving first aired on November 20, 1973, marking the tenth prime-time Peanuts special and one of the most beloved. The story of Charlie Brown’s simple holiday meal has become an annual tradition, first watched in an annual broadcast, and now on Apple+ TV, where non-subscribers can view it for free from November 15-16, 2025.
