  2. How many pumpkins does Linus pull from the patch before Lucy approves of his choice?
  3. What color is Lucy’s witch hat?
  4. Complete the Linus quote: “Never jump into a pile of leaves with a ________________.”
  5. When does Linus expect The Great Pumpkin to arrive?
  6. What does Linus’ sign say?
  7. Which character cuts more eyeholes than necessary in their ghost costume?
  8. What does the Great Pumpkin require to appear?
  9. What does Charlie Brown keep getting instead of candy while trick or treating?
  10. Who does Linus mistake for the Great Pumpkin?
  11. In the morning, who goes to fetch Linus sleeping in the pumpkin patch?
  12. Did the Great Pumpkin ever show up?

I always trip on the look that Linus gives Charlie Brown at the end when he's ranting. If I were Charlie, I'd have run at that moment!

10 out of 12. I love "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!" It's one of my favorites! But I like "A Charlie Brown Christmas"the most!

I missed that question also. I thought that witches' hats are supposed to black, not red?

I got 8/12. So I got a rock. I usually do better regarding this show. I used to watch it all the time. I can't believe I missed that many.

I suppose if I had done poorly enough, I would have gotten a bag of rocks...LOL!!

6/12 Didn't see it for years, but when I finally watched it again I found it kind of mean. Why would everyone give Charlie Brown rocks?
And why didn't Charlie Brown return the rocks through some windows?
Charlie Brown is too nice to do anything like that.
LOL! Good question.
That's one of the unanswered questions.

Your comment has nothing whatsoever to do with todays quiz on "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!" So why did you post it? HUH?

cperrynaples nerakr 74 months ago
Yes, why wouldn't a witch wear a black hat?
