Peanuts/Charlie Brown has been my favorite media franchise for all my life, and I got to admit this show is AWESOME!!! It's very true to the previous Peanuts incarnations, and thankfully no major changes have been made. This is one of the only shows being made today that I'm a big fan of, and the only streaming service original I'm big into. A lot of old cartoons that have been favorites of both children and adults for generations have been ruined during more recent years, but luckily Peanuts has never been ruined! I'd better keep my fingers crossed and hope for the franchise to stay good forever. The characters are all still their same old likable selves, and their designs are the same, but in a slightly different animation style. The animation here is an improvement of the previous incarnations!
Various episodes have revealed origin stories that haven't been explained before, like how Snoopy and Woodstock first met, the timeline of Snoopy's life, and if I remember correctly, there's an episode that reveals how Linus got his hands on his blanket. The show focuses more on Snoopy and his fantasy sequences than most incarnations. He goes on more exciting adventures than ever before, like going under the sea with Woodstock and meeting some fish, participating in a rock concert, and more! There's an episode where he listens to fast paced and bouncy music while roller-skating, which I find fun to watch for some reason.
One might think that the show is all about Snoopy when they read the title, but thankfully, it's not. All the other characters get their fair share of screen time and episodes too, like Charlie Brown, Linus, Lucy, Woodstock, Peppermint Patty, and nearly the whole cast. There's an episode where Charlie Brown's class has "show and smile," which is when they bring in something from home that makes them smile and talks about it in front of the whole class, similar to show and tell. At first, Charlie Brown has trouble finding something to bring and thinking of something that makes him smile, but when he sees Snoopy dancing out the window of his classroom, he finally thinks of something that makes him smile and to talk to his class about: seeing Snoopy dance. That was a heartwarming moment! It shows how much Charlie Brown loves his dog stronger than usual, and finally he appeared to be happier than ever before! That episode is my favorite! Snoopy's siblings get plenty of screentime in this series. They very seldom appear in other incarnations. Rerun is one of the main characters here, and he's one of my favorite Peanuts characters. He's the main protagonist of I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown and a couple episodes of The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show. I think those are his only major roles outside of The Snoopy Show, though I could be wrong. He has had other appearances too, but he has mostly minor roles. Rerun finally gets the love and respect he deserves here and is finally a main character!
I repeat, The Snoopy Show is the best Peanuts/Charlie Brown show EVER!!! This is the only reboot (or more recent spinoff/continuation) I can think of that's better than the source material! Don't get me wrong, I still love its predecessors too. I think it'd be safer to consider this a continuation or spinoff of the Peanuts series rather than a reboot because Peanuts as a whole never came to an end, but I'm not entirely sure. Kids will love this, and any teenagers or adults who grew up with Peanuts will go into nostalgia mode while watching this!
