I appreciate the attempt to bring Peanuts to a modern audience, but for me, animated Peanuts is about so much more than just the characters, it’s the Vince Guaraldi score / scene background music. It’s the 2D set pieces. It’s the kinda stilted way they all talked. All of that is Peanuts to me. Charlie Brown saying…

But Mr. Der, she didn’t make a mistake. You did. She used a perfectly acceptable scientific term that has been in use for decades. All you had to do was open a dictionary, or Google.
