A Charlie Brown Christmas premiered on CBS on Dec. 9, 1965. The road to television was not an easy one, and the premiere was preceded by a sense of dread from the network. The program was contradictory to all the trends at the time 91裸聊视频� no laugh track, a jazz score and featuring a voice cast of children. Most people expected it to be a disaster, but those people were very wrong. A Charlie Brown Christmas was a ratings smash hit (over 15 million households tuned in 91裸聊视频� nearly half of the television sets in the US), and went on to win both an Emmy and the Peabody Award. It is now broadcast every year.
