Description:

It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown, made its original television debut in 1974. Starring, everyone's favorite animated beagle, Snoopy and the rest of the lovable Peanuts gang, It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown centers on the gang's preparations for Easter. Peppermint Patty and Marcie make several attempts at dying eggs but they fail every time after Marcie fries, roasts, toasts and even waffles the eggs. According to Linus however, their efforts are a waste of time because he claims the "Easter Beagle" will take care of everything. Lucy plans to have her own private Easter egg hunt and hides her own eggs so she can easily find them on Easter morning. Snoopy on the other hand, buys Woodstock a bird house, which Woodstock promptly remodels into a hip 70's pad. Just when everyone thought Easter wasn't all that it's cracked up to be, the Easter Beagle (played by Snoopy) makes an appearance, handing out eggs to everyone, everyone that is except for Charlie Brown, who receives an empty basket.
