Additional Information about the Cartoon Special It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (Video)

Charlie Brown is the one who dresses up as a ghost but cuts too many holes in his costume and ends up looking like a potato. (In the newspaper strip, Linus is the one who does this.)

The version of the show broadcast on CBS and older video releases were edited; they leave out a several of the "I got a rock!" scenes. (Some older video releases also cut the scene where Snoopy dances along to Schroeder's piano music.)

In the ABC broadcasts (2001 & 2002), they removed 3 minutes of material: the scene near the beginning where Lucy tries to get Charlie Brown to kick the football (1 min, 15 secs); the scene Snoopy dances to music Schroeder plays on the piano at the Halloween party (1 min, 45 secs); the final title card saying "The End" and one repetition of Linus's outraged statements about "next year" were lopped off (1-2 seconds). This is more than CBS ever edited out from the show.

My Three Sons was the first series to be preempted by It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown in its debut telecast.
