1970's Peanuts Collection Vol. 2 Review

A true timeless classic revisited...

The Peanuts Gang is back once again with another true timeless classic for all of us who has enjoyed, and loved, the comical gang growing up as a child. These six classic episodes are now remastered and brought to you on this amazing 2 disc dvd set.

All of the classic tv specials are on here, which originally aired from 1975-1979...

(Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown) Originally Aired 1/28/75

This is one of the last Peanuts episodes to become a true perennial classic. With Valentine's Day approaching... Charlie Brown and the rest of the Peanuts Gang prepare themselves in various ways. From Charlie Brown waiting at the mailbox to Snoopy putting on a dramatic "Pawpet" show, every moment will surely have your attention in awe.

(You're A Good Sport, Charlie Brown) Originally Aired 10/28/75

Peppermint Patty gets her good ol' pal Chuck to participate in a motocross race which has many challenges to overcome. Including a mysterious Masked Marvel. Another true classic.

(It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown) Originally Aired 3/16/76

While researching for her report on Arbor day, Sally insists the gang turn the ball field into garden and orchard with a tree on the pitcher's mound, and a scarecrow in the outfield. It's during the 1st season that the plants on the ball field turn out to be an unexpected advantage against Peppermint Patty's team.

(It's Your First Kiss, Charlie Brown) Originally Aired 10/24/77

Charlie Brown must escort the little red-haired girl to their homecoming dance even though he had trouble kicking the ball during the homecoming football game. "Good Grief!" Another true classic to watch and relive.

(What A Nightmare, Charlie Brown!) Originally Aired 2/23/78

Finally making it's debut on dvd... Snoopy dreams he's an Alaskan sled dog, after eaten too much. Personally one of my favorite's because the story is based around Snoopy, which is my favorite Peanuts character. Woodstock 2nd :) :)

(You're The Greatest, Charlie Brown) Originally Aired 3/19/79

Charlie Brown participates in the Junior Olympics Decathalon, which he completes against other contestants including the mysterious Masked Marvel. A classic episode that is still truly timeless.

Also as a bonus feauturette on this 2 disc dvd set is "You're Groovy, Charlie Brown." All six episodes are remastered and in full frame, and in my opinion... truly stunning. I have enjoyed this dvd set just as much as the previous collections "1960's Peanuts Collection" and "1970's Peanuts Collection Vol. 1."

Snoopy and The Peanuts Gang has always been my favorite growing up, and now being able to relive all of the memories I've had of them as a child and during holidays. is simply a feeling that is beyond incredible. This is truly a timeless collection no one who has grown up on them should pass up. I can asure you I'll be patiently waiting till the release of the 1980's Peanuts collection. :) :)
