Peanuts

Peanuts is a popular comic strip created by Charles Shultz. It ran in newspapers from October 2, 1950 untill Febuary 13, 2000. The popular comic strip has spawned several television specials, four feature films, two musicals, and two television series (The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show and This is America, Charlie Brown).

An illustration of one of the strips characters, Snoopy, can be seen in a film about circles, which can be seen in the Sesame Street Pitch Reel.

Many references to this comic strip can be found in the Muppet Babies episode Comic Capers, the most notable of which is a parody of the comic strip, with Baby Kermit in the role of Charlie Brown, Baby Rowlf as Shroeder, Baby Piggy as Lucy, and Baby Skeeter in the Pepperment Patty-like ole of "Butterscotch Skeeter". This sequence also featured a few clips from the various Peanuts animated specials. Other references in this episode include a brief clip of Charlie Brown being drawn, a still from the very first Peanuts comic strip, and a scene with Baby Scooter inside a computer, being turned into a variety of things, at one point saying, "Now I look like Charlie Brown!"
