Kevin Tweets About ‘You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown’

Kevin Carr — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 18:23:11 +0000

Watching YOU’RE A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN on DVD with the kids. Loved the musical. Curious to see how this is. #kevincarrgoodman

Whoa… and Snoopy talks in this one. I know it’s from the stage show, but it’s weeeeeeird in animation. #kevincarrgoodman

There’s a reference to Ann Landers in this Charlie Brown movie. That column ended in 2002. God, I’m old. #kevincarrgoodman

@filthysize Not the same guy, but he does a good job. It’s just strange to see Snoopy with a voice. #kevincarrgoodman

Suppertime! (for Snoopy, not for me) #kevincarrgoodman

YOU’RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN the animated musical is quite brilliant. #kevincarrgoodman

Kevin’s Live-Tweet of ‘It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown’

Kevin Carr — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 03:18:12 +0000

On October 16, Kevin live-tweeted the classic Peanuts television special It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, and he’s very ashamed about it. Here’s a log, complete with time-code for your home-viewing pleasure.

GREAT PUMPKIN 00:15 – I always feel like dancing when I hear this music. But dancing like those kids at the Christmas party.

GREAT PUMPKIN 00:45 – Linus found a steroid pumpkin that’s larger than him. Grew up by a nuclear power plant apparently.

GREAT PUMPKIN 01:35 – Lucy looks just a little too happy with the huge knife stabbing the pumpkin. Psycho at heart.

GREAT PUMPKIN 03:00 – Never jump into a pile of leaves with a wet sucker… sage advice from Linus.

GREAT PUMPKIN 03:30 – Awesome. The Lucy Van Pelt football gag. This was the start of an era.

GREAT PUMPKIN 04:15-CBrown thought a signed document would ensure he’d kick the football. He must also think the pix on Craigslist are real.

GREAT PUMPKIN 05:45 – Lucy: “You’d better cut it out right now, or I’ll pound you.” In a different movie, this would be really naughty.

GREAT PUMPKIN 06:20 – Sally is clearly Linus’s bottom bitch.

GREAT PUMPKIN 07:00 – So where were the parents in these Peanuts specials? Well, it was the swinging era. They were all at key parties.

GREAT PUMPKIN 08:10 – why do all these elementary school kids have access to massive butcher knives and huge scissors?

GREAT PUMPKIN 09:10 – Charlie Brown is going as a potato ghost. (Had a little trouble with the scissors)

GREAT PUMPKIN 10:00 – Snoopy’s ready to drop acid and have a World War I pychadelic trip.

GREAT PUMPKIN 10:45 – It’s a good thing these are kids. Otherwise, Linus would have gullible Sally doing things that would get her arrested

GREAT PUMPKIN 11:30 – “If you try to hold my hand, I’ll slug you.” That’s pillow-talk for elementary school kids.

GREAT PUMPKIN 12:30 – Charlie Brown: “I got a rock.” What kind of assholes live in this neighborhood?

GREAT PUMPKIN 13:10 – Charlie Brown should consider himself lucky. Rocks are better than razor blades in apples.

GREAT PUMPKIN 14:20 – This WWI flashback with Snoopy is as trippy as the stargate sequence in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

GREAT PUMPKIN 14:40 – CURSE YOU, RED BARON!

GREAT PUMPKIN 16:15 – Still no adult supervision. Just creepy grown-ups handing out rocks for candy.

GREAT PUMPKIN 18:30 – “Yeah, Lucy. You should be good at this. You have the perfect mouth for it.” Seriously. This was just said.

GREAT PUMPKIN 20:00 – Fact: Shroeder grew up and never got laid. He was too busy playing his piano, if you know what I mean.

GREAT PUMPKIN 21:00 – Whoa! Linus is doing his best Julius Somner Miller impression. #geekhumor

GREAT PUMPKIN 22:00 – “You kept me up all night in a pumpkin patch… and all that came was a beagle!” Again, that just happened.

GREAT PUMPKIN 23:20 – Lucy wakes at 4 a.m. to find Linus’ bed empty, then finds him dead in the pumpkin patch. #alternateendings

GREAT PUMPKIN 24:15 – “I went trick or treating, and all I got was a bag of rocks.” That’s crack cocaine, kiddo!

GREAT PUMPKIN 25:00 – The show ends with Linus delivering a Hitler-passionate speech about next year waiting for the great pumpkin. Awkward!

GREAT PUMPKIN 25:10 – And ROLL CREDITS!

Final word on IT’S THE GREAT PUMPKIN, CHARLIE BROWN… I love this show. Fun to watch again. But I’m going to hell for my live-tweets.
