Why, Charlie Brown, Why? (1990 TV Short)
10/10
Very Risky for a Cartoon but Touching and Moving!
15 December 2013
Warning: Spoilers
While I love Charlie Brown, still really Linus is my favorite as the voice of reason. And as the conscience of Charlie and the kids. Charlie kind of takes a backseat to Linus.

As he falls in love with a blonde hair girl. As she gets leukemia. And loses her hair. As she must have treatment. And Linus really is grieved with this.

Loved the way that he stood up to a bully. Who was making fun of her, for losing her hair. Later the bully becomes nicer. After learning of her disease.

As Linus really took the spotlight. Wished that he could take the spotlight more. As really he is my favorite of the Peanuts. Even before Charlie Brown!

Touching and moving and risky for a cartoon to take on the cancer thing. As kids needed to know how cancer is involved.
