While A Charlie Brown Festivus It’s fun, but at 33 seconds it’s disappointingly short. Luckily there is more Charlie Brown Christmas Parodies that also have what it takes.

Funny or die supplemented with a version in which Linus explains the true meaning of Christmas. It’s all sweet and light as he explains the birth of the Christ child, but the story gets a little darker when Linus starts quoting end-times passages from Revelation. “There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast,” says Linus, surrounded by flames. “That’s what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.”

Animation Domination delivered A Charlie Brown Christmas reunion with the middle-aged Peanuts gang returning for the holidays. Lucy now has double Ds: divorced and diabetic. The unsympathetic Charlie Brown still gets his football revenge.

Robert Smigel delivered the funniest version in an episode of Saturday Night Lives TV Funhouse. The Peanuts gang conjures up a spindly little Christmas tree, only to discover that their spooky holiday powers can be used to transform other objects, too. It’s a chance for Smigel to burn early childhood celebrities including Christina Aguilera, Liza Minnelli, Ben Affleck and JLo, Anna Nicole Smith, Ozzy Osbourne and, most brutally, Michael Jackson.

Just like in Funny or dieIn his parody and religious scolding, Linus attempts to put an end to the holiday fun with biblical promises of doom. After God expresses his wrath, the children return the Peanuts world to where it began. It’s the darkest version yet: Charlie Brown and his friends sing “Hark, The Herald Angels Sing” while Brad Pitt reads news about terrorist threats around the globe.

My goodness.
