Snoopy presenta: Por los viejos tiempos

I really loved this. The animation was better than in any prior Peanuts special, and the characters all looked great. Interestingly, Charles Schulz himself didn't much like the drawing and animation in the old Peanuts specials produced when he was still with us. I think he'd love this. So well done! Authentic, yet new things have been added, including a refreshed characterization of Lucy, and it's very welcome. One of the reasons I liked "The Peanuts Movie" is that Snoopy was changed so that he actually cared about Charlie Brown. In the strip, he didn't even seem to recognize his owner, and that always kind of irritated me. The producers of the movie fixed that, and Snoopy was much more likable IMO. Same deal with Lucy in this special. Her story was very moving and believable as to how a child might feel about a beloved relative not coming for Christmas. Kids tend to blame themselves for adult behavior (ask any child whose parents have divorced) so I commend the producers of this special on how they handled Lucy in her situation. Plus, the way the special ended was so moving. This was excellent. I hope we see more of this kind of Lucy in future specials. 10 stars!

Snoopy Presents: For Auld Lang Syne, or simply For Auld Lang Syne, is a 2021 Peanuts animated special fireworks 💥

It's very good! 😀 I'd recommend it 👍🏼

I hadn't watched anything related to Peanuts since the movie years ago (which I liked - it was very well done). I got curious about this special because Lucy is the focus, which was something new and different for a Peanuts special. And this special is different indeed, without discarding all the good things we remember from past Peanuts specials. Lucy grows as a character - showing a vulnerability and depth I didn't expect, but was absolutely delighted with. As written and performed, it's a logical progression, and she's a stronger character for it. All of the other characters are handled just as well, and the laughs are there, but oh the feels! I really didn't expect that, and I think it's that feature that puts it at the top of the list of all the Peanuts specials. And the animation, which is in 2D, thank goodness, is incredible. The characters look exactly the way Charles Schulz drew them, and none of the sloppiness that often occurred in the old specials is evident. The movement is smooth and expressive, but not Flash-y - indeed, this looks like authentic 2D, even though we know that computer animation was also employed. The music is traditional Peanuts-style jazz, and, well, everything in this special is so satisfying to anyone with an affection for good ol' Charlie Brown and the gang. If this is the new level for Peanuts specials, then I eagerly await next one. I give this one a solid and very happy 10!

Snoopy Presents: For Auld Lang Syne is an amazing special. I haven't really watch the original Peanuts specials that much but this special just felt different. The voices were different from the original Peanuts and of course the animation was different. I don't remember watching Peanuts but I guess I have because I just felt like something was wrong. Besides that this is a really good special. This special has a great message. I think that the message that everyone is loved is a great theme and everyone should listen to it. I like how they focused on Lucy but I think they should have gone into the plot with Charlie Brown. There was a cool plot about Charlie Brown that they just left out. I think that they got a bit clingy to the song Auld Lang Syne. I have never even heard of it before. Is that supposed to be a New Years song? Anyway, New Years Eve is today, and if you are reading this on New Years Eve I'm saying to you happy New Years. If you are reading this and it isn't New Years, well happy New Years when it happens. In all, I give this a 7.9 out of 10.
