Info

Charlie Brown, Linus and the entire Peanuts gang are off on a lively Easter egg hunt. They suspect they've spotted the Easter Bunny … but the trouble is, he looks a lot like a certain beagle who's near and dear to Charlie Brown's heart. Is it truly the Easter Bunny, or is it just the irrepressible Snoopy playing a trick on the kids?

It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown Audience Reviews

Konterr Brilliant and touching
Bereamic Awesome Movie
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
SnoopyStyle Peppermint Patty is trying to color eggs but Marcie keeps cooking them wrong. Woodstock finds his nest flooded and complains to Snoopy. Linus is annoying his sister Lucy with tales of the Easter Beagle when all she wants are presents from Schroeder. Sally wants new shoes and Charlie Brown brings her to the mall. Patty is there to buy more eggs and Snoopy buys a birdhouse. Sally is hesitant to believe Linus and his Easter Beagle who is suppose to be bringing a basket of Easter Eggs.I just love Peppermint Patty and Marcie. They are a great comedy duo. I can't help but laugh every time. The story is cohesive and fun. Charlie Brown actually steps back a little and everybody else has their own fun stories. There is never any doubt that Snoopy will rescue the day as the Easter Beagle.
tavm While not as entertaining as many of the other Peanuts holiday specials (Thanksgiving, Halloween, Christmas), there's still some amusing scenes that makes It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown worth recommending. Like seeing Peppermint Patty get frustrated every time her friend Marcie cracks open the eggs (to fry, waffle, or boil) as Patty prepares to paint them. Or Snoopy botching some attempts at getting his bird friend Woodstock a bird house. Only a Peanuts cartoon would have a scene in a Discount Mart with a sign saying "Only 246 days till Christmas" with potential presents on sale! Though while Linus' belief in the Easter Beagle, unlike that of the Great Pumkin, comes true, isn't it a bit strange no one acknowledges that it's Snoopy doing the rounds? And why is Schroeder's scene so brief here? Otherwise, this was a pretty entertaining animated special with fine work, as always, by musician Vince Guaraldi on the score.
Catherine_Grace_Zeh In my opinion, this is an excellent holiday special which is very hip and hilarious. However, I couldn't bear seeing Marcie (voice of Peter Robbins) having to boil all those Easter eggs herself while Peppermint Patty yelled at her so she would do it right. In addition, the thing that really makes this special worth watching is the score, especially "Linus And Lucy." When that song is performed, I always get warm and tingly. I would have to say that's my favorite song of this special. If you ask me, Charles M. Schulz was a really good artist. In conclusion, I highly recommend this excellent Easter special which is very hip and hilarious to everyone, especially all you fans of the comic strip who have not seen it. When you see it, prepare to smile and have a good time.
rebeljenn Like the Valentine's Day episode of Charlie Brown, the Easter special is a lot of fluff regarding the members of the Peanuts Gang. It's not nearly as good as the Halloween episode (which is seems to mimic) or the Christmas episode.In this episode, the Peanuts are getting ready for Easter, and Snoppy becomes the equivalent of the Easter Bunny. The episode is very mundane with a lot less to offer when compared to some of the previous Charlie Brown films.Not terribly good. I would recommend that you see the Christmas episode or the Halloween one. Only watch this if you really are a fan.
