It was 70 years ago good ol’ “wishy-washy” Charlie Brown entered our world. Since its first appearance in October 1950, the strip has been syndicated in 2,800 newspapers around the world and gave birth to an industry that made its creator a multi-millionaire.

In celebration of the milestone, Apple TV+ has a new original series resulting from an exclusive partnership between Peanuts and WildBrain. The The Snoopy Show will make its global debut on February 5, 2021, exclusively on Apple TV+.

Snoopy, the happy-dancin’, bone-lovin’, doghouse-sittin’ pup, is once again at the centre of the show. He’s Joe Cool: hippest kid in school.

He’s surfer king and famed arm-wrestler Masked Marvel. He’s World War I Flying Ace who battles the Red Baron. Each episode will comprise three, seven-minute cartoons based on the iconic comic series. It will also showcases everyone's most cherished characters from the comic strip, including Charlie Brown, Lucy, Linus, Franklin, Schroeder and Peppermint Patty.

The Snoopy Show comes after the very successful Peanuts in Space: Secrets of Apollo 10 and Snoopy in Space. Besides the beloved characters created by Charles M. Schulz, Apple TV+ also has other shows for kids, like Ghostwriter and Helpsters as well as upcoming series Fraggle Rock, Doug Unplugs and Stillwater.

For adults who have grown up reading Peanuts, many have been inspired by Snoopy’s happy attitude towards life. The beagle remains a portrayal of fearlessness and the life of any party while his owner, Charlie Brown, can very well be one of us. Like he once said:

“Sometimes you lie in bed and you don’t have a single thing to worry about. That always worries me.”
