Not coincidentally, Peanuts hit superstardom after Snoopy adopted his World War I flying-ace persona, zooming into the lucrative blue yonder of endorsements and licensing. Snoopy electric toothbrushes and snack cakes--there's a little Woodstock in every Pikachu under your tree this year. And yet Schulz's Christmas special is a plea against commercialism, in which Charlie Brown nurses a desiccated Christmas tree (twig, really) to health...
