Did you know

In this cartoon Charlie Brown is playing a football game, and he must kick a football held by Lucy. Just as he is about to kick it, Lucy, naturally, pulls it away several times without anyone noticing. He is then scolded by his teammates for missing the ball. Viewers wrote letters to the producers complaining about this, as Charlie Brown was clearly not at fault. In response, the teammates' harsh reactions were back-masked in subsequent airings and home video releases of the special.

The first of two times The Little Red-Haired girl actually appears in a "Peanuts" special, and the first time she is given a proper name (Heather).

Charles M. Schulz opposed any depiction of The Little Red Headed Girl, feeling that any visual images of her couldn't possibly live up to anyone's expectations, including his own.

How can Lucy get away with everything when it's obvious that everything is her fault?

I like it, but I felt it was a bit too mean.
