Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. How many pumpkins does Linus pick before Lucy shows him the one she wants him to bring back?

Answer: Two

It's interesting to note that Linus picks up a small pumpkin, then a medium sized one. The one Lucy wants, however, is bigger than Linus!

2. What is different about Linus on the trip home?

Answer: His blanket is missing

I find it interesting that he has the blanket all the way to the pumpkin patch, and then it seems to disappear while he's choosing pumpkins. Did he magically stash it somewhere?

3. What else is different about the trip home that isn't included in the trip to the pumpkin patch?

Answer: They go through (or around) a fence

I don't remember them going through the fence to get TO the pumpkin patch!

4. How many steps are there in front of the van Pelt household?

Answer: 3

It seems that all the houses in the Peanuts world have three steps leading up to (down from) them to the ground.

5. There are how many children during the musical introduction to the special?

Answer: Five

It's the Peanuts gang that gathers at Lucy's house before heading out for tricks or treats... right down to Charlie Brown's much cut-up costume!

6. How many Jack O'Lanterns surround the children at one point in the musical number?

Answer: Four

I almost always used to carve four Jacks as a younger man, since the special was probably subconciously guiding me in my choice.

7. While Charlie Brown is raking leaves and Snoopy is blowing one over to the pile for him, Linus licks his "sucker" three times.

Answer: True

It's interesting to me that the size of the lollipop seems to change from when it's plain to when it's covered with leaves. Maybe it's just my imagination?

8. What did Lucy give Charlie Brown as an inducement to kick the football?

Answer: A signed document

Interesting bit of information. Charlie Brown did get to kick the football at one time. Actually, he missed and got Lucy's fingers! Guess it was payback for all those times she pulled the ball away...

9. What was the "peculiar thing" about the document Lucy gave Charlie Brown?

Answer: It was never notarized

Ever notice how she always had a way of getting out of doing something right by Charlie Brown? Reminds me of my first girlfriend!

10. What color is the lamp that is on the table beside Lucy as she watches television?

Answer: Orange with grey specks

The lampshade is white with a pink stripe around the bottom of it.

11. Who is on the cover of the TV Guide that Lucy is holding?

Answer: Lucy

And it's interesting that the picture on the TV Guide shows her sitting on the floor, just like she's doing!

12. Violet lives up to her name in this special by wearing a violet outfit.

Answer: False

It's actually a lime-green outfit with matching socks. Don't you think that's out of character for her name?

13. What is the big point of the pumpkin patch Linus picks out?

Answer: Not a sign of hypocrisy

Linus thinks the Great Pumpkin will pick this pumpkin patch to rise out of because in looking all around, there's not a sign of hypocrisy; only sincerity as far as the eye can see.

14. What is on the first sign that Snoopy comes to in his fantasy as a World War I Flying Ace?

Answer: Chalons sur Marne

The World War I Flying Ace was shot down behind enemy lines. His first road marker shows Chalons sur Marne as being 70 (presumably km) away.

15. When it comes time for apple bobbing, someone says, "Yeah Lucy, you should be good at this. You have the perfect mouth for it."

Answer: True

I'm not certain but I think that it's Violet that says this. But whoever it is, did you happen to notice that Snoopy gets into the tub by ducking behind the curtain? And that Lucy's hat doesn't get wet?

16. What's the word that makes Linus realize he's made a big boo-boo with the Great Pumpkin?

Answer: If

The first word (initially) of the parenthetic hint was the answer. I guess he upset him, didn't he?

17. What time is it when Lucy gets out of bed to check on Linus and finds out he's not in bed?

Answer: 4 am

At 4 am she gets up, checks his room, then heads out to the pumpkin patch to find him shivering under his blanket. Poor Linus!

18. Who is the voice for the character of Charlie Brown?

Answer: Peter Robbins

He did the voice for Charlie Brown a total of eight times.

19. Who does the voice for the character of Linus van Pelt?

Answer: Chris Shea

Bill Melendez was the director for the special, as well as a few others. Charles M. Schulz was the creator of the Peanuts gang. Theodore Geisel was the much beloved Dr. Seuss, creator of the Cat in the Hat.

20. Final question: Sally Dryer was the voice of Sally Brown, Charlie Brown's younger sister.

Answer: False

Sorry if you said "true"... she was actually Lucy in this special. Sally was voiced by Cathy Steinberg. By the way, a Google search on those two turned up that Sally Dryer is known by Sally Dryer-Barker, but not much else on either of them.
