Charlie Brown
Here is an interesting article in the LA Times about the history of the Charlie Brown Christmas Special and how it is still making good money for CBS. Some of the Charlie Brown specials--the Great Pumpkin comes to mind--haven't seemed to weather quite as well as the Christmas Special and I think it is because the soundtract to the Christmas Special is about as good as you can get. In fact, I can't think of a better song for getting into the Christmas mood than "Skating".
