Post-nuclear-holocaust Peanuts.
“Woodstock” is particularly horrible.

But fascinating nightmarish. I think the costumes are in the Horrilent and Exible area.

All I can say is that I’m glad Peanuts was never a big deal to me.
The strips and early cartoons were great.
This new stuff does not seem a fitting reboot. It’s the Future, Charlie Brown! And it doesn’t look good on him.

These folks need to re-read the fine print on the contract before signing with ABC.
Fuuuuuu… these are costumes appropriate for a horror movie about mutated serial killers.

But the Today Show is on NBC…
but very similar: NBC is nuclear, biological, chemical; ABC the same in German - atomar, biologisch, chemisch ; )

No, I’m in complete agreement. These guys gave them the paper bag mask equivalent of Halloween this year.
My educated guess is the cross-promotional thing was waaaay too late in approval to get something more design appropriate made in time, like giant foam heads with face holes. And the ones that seemed sort of like they were trying something along that vein, Snoopy and Woodstock, were horrible.

You would think at that some point someone would have said “You know this isn’t just working”
Whoever that had the power to say that really must hate these guys.

I don’t remember Linus looking quite so much like Gollum.

Good association. Gollum had his ring, Linus had his blanket.

Why didn’t they just buy something like this?
If they just wore the right clothes, had some good props (blue blanket, toe piano), it could have been a nice tribute/promo. Hell of a lot cheaper and far less disturbing.
Could have been worse though. Picture Al Roker in this little number:

I was gonna mention the same thing. They were trying to be preemptively hip by cross-promoting something that may spurn Peanut-themed Halloween costuming next year. I think it’s a fail since all I got was the creeps when I saw these pictures. But it’s Halloween, so maybe they were going for the creep factor?
My childhood <=== Destroyed.
