From TibbyH :

Let's get this outta the way, this is my all time favorite Peanuts cartoon (excluding the holiday specials). "You're in Love, Charlie Brown" is a well written, mellow special about Charlie Brown falling in love for the first time and every awkward element associated with young love. Charlie Brown's misadventures in romance are relatable to me. I made a lot of the same mistakes he did in my early ventures in love, and when watching this I can just laugh and see how much I've grown and matured since my grade school days. Love is always difficult to handle growing up because of our unfamiliarity with addressing emotions and our lack of knowledge on how the world works. Romance and getting together with the person of your desires always seemed so unobtainable, but we still tried. Good ole Charlie Brown never gave up either, and he tries whatever he can to get the attention of that Little Red-Haired Girl (no matter how much it backfires or embarrasses him). But beyond personal stuff, "You're in Love, Charlie Brown" has a great and humorous script, has one of Vince Guaraldi's most beautiful scores, and gorgeous production design. Charles Schulz was a master of creating very personal stories that could be enjoyed and relatable to people of all ages. This cartoon was no exception. I love it with all my heart.
