It wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and a toast-filled turkey dinner. The Peanuts holiday classic A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is once again streaming this year and you’ll need Apple TV+ to watch.
Where to Watch It
Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is available exclusively on Apple TV+, the only place to stream Peanuts content through at least 2030. The nearly 30-minute animated special has been a holiday tradition for decades, and Apple’s long-term partnership with WildBrain, Peanuts Worldwide, and Lee Mendelson Film Productions ensures it remains a centerpiece of the season.
You can stream it right now with an Apple TV+ subscription, which also unlocks the full Peanuts holiday library, including It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown and A Charlie Brown Christmas.

A Tradition Worth Celebrating
Originally released in 1973, A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is a heartfelt and humorous take on the holiday. When Peppermint Patty invites herself and the gang over to Charlie Brown’s house for Thanksgiving dinner, poor Chuck scrambles to put something together. With Snoopy and Woodstock stepping in to help, the result is a chaotic, jelly bean-fueled feast that only the Peanuts could pull off.
The special balances slapstick charm with the quiet warmth and reflection that have made the Peanuts stories endure for generations.
More Peanuts on Apple TV+
Apple TV+ has become the home for everything Peanuts, including not just the classic specials but also new animated series and an upcoming feature-length film starring Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and the rest of the gang.

Whether you’re revisiting a childhood favorite or introducing it to a new generation, A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is ready to stream for the holidays… just don’t forget the toast and popcorn or else you’ll feel like a blockhead.
