It was confirmed by Apple TV+ earlier this year that it will deliver the audiences a new Peanuts special during the holidays – which will be centered around New Year’s Eve, with the forthcoming For Auld Lang Syne special getting its first trailer. The new special will look forward to celebrating all the beloved members if the Peanuts cast, it also marks the first occasion when a TV special is based on characters that do not feature characters “Charlie Brown” or “Snoopy” in the title. Fortunately, we will get to see those characters, among a lot more, as everyone gets into the spirit of New Year when For Auld Lang Syne releases on 10th December on Apple TV+.

For years, Peanuts specials have developed this tradition to get families in the mood for holidays. Whether it’s Charlie Brown, A Charlie Brown Christmas, It’s The Great Pumpkin, or A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. All die-hard Peanuts fans know that holidays aren’t complete with the viewing of these classic adventures.

Fans were really excited when Apple TV+ got the rights to make new projects with these characters. Although we don’t know what the future holds for them, it was a surprise to many that Apple TV+ will be the home of these classics. Apple TV+, luckily, has a partnership with PBS to continue network broadcasting of every special, with fans able to check for local listings for the broadcast of A Charlie Brown Christmas.

Make sure you watch For Auld Lang Syne on Apple TV+ on December 10th.
