This is America, Charlie Brown was an eight-part animated TV mini-series, depicting events in American history with characters from the Charles M. Schulz comic strip Peanuts. It aired from 1988 to 1989 on CBS. These eight episodes came on a 2-DVD collector's set in 2006.
Due to the nature of the events portrayed and the historical figures included - such as The Wright Brothers - many adults were shown in full view along with the Peanuts gang, something that happened rarely in the animated films and specials (Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown (And Don't Come Back!!) being another exception) and not at all in the comic strip.
