Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis special is one of many that Violet and Patty are reduced to silent cameos. These two characters (among others like Shermy, Pig Pen, and Frieda) were prominent in the earlier specials, such as It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966) and A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965), but were phased out with the introduction of Peppermint Patty and Marcie.
- GoofsCharlie Brown is seen reading "War and Peace" on the porch outside the New Year's Eve party. Although we can hear him reading it normally, he is turning the pages in the wrong direction (going backwards).
- Quotes
Lucy van Pelt: [as Schroeder plays his piano] Well, are you taking me to the party or not?
[Schroeder stops playing]
Schroeder: Musicians don't dance. And anyway, I'll be playing the piano at the party.
[continues playing]
Lucy van Pelt: I don't mind the rejection; it's the smile that bugs me.

Featured review
A classic special to watch as you ring in the new year.
First off, I remember first watching this Charlie Brown special on Disney Channel before 1995 began. Also, Charlie Brown is to read Tolstoy's novel, "War and Peace," during Christmas vacation. This is not really grade school material. It is more for college students. If I was assigned to read a lengthy novel during vacation taking a college course, I'd pick a Jules Verne novel like "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" or "Around the World in 80 Days." I also remember when this special ran on Nickelodeon at one time or another.
My favorite part of this Peanuts special is the musical chairs game. I always like to watch this special to ring in the new year, but I don't I'd want to read "War and Peace." It's too lengthy for me to read.
