Peanuts is a multimedia entertainment franchise created by Charles M. Schulz. It began with the Peanuts comic strip, whose original print run was from 1950 to 2000 and has since been published in reruns. Peanuts become a multimedia franchise in 1965 with the airing of the first animated television special, A Charlie Brown Christmas.

The franchise has produced many other animated television specials, four feature-length films, an animated television program, video games and a stage musical. In addition, numerous books exist, both compilations from the comic strip and original works based on the strip.

Peanuts and its characters have been referred to numerous times on The Simpsons: in television episodes, comic stories and other media.

Comics

Picture Comic issue Story name Reference Simpsons Comics #61 The Paper Chase Bart's kite is caught and eaten by a kite-eating tree, which prompts him to exclaim "Good grief!", and Sherri and Terri call him a blockhead: "Good grief!" is one of Charlie Brown's frequently-uttered catchphrases. Charlie Brown's kite being eaten by a kite-eating tree is a recurring plot motif in the Peanuts comic strip. Charlie Brown is often called a "blockhead" by other characters. The Simpsons: Holiday Humdinger Happy Non-Specific Semi-Festive Winter Gathering Martin plays a toy piano while Santa's Little Helper dances on it and Lisa leans on it and listens to the music, similar to Schroeder, Snoopy and Lucy. Bart Simpson #40 Li'l Krusty 2 Krusty opens a booth where he tells jokes for five cents, similar to Lucy's psychiatric help booth in Peanuts. When he tells a poor joke to Sideshow Bob, Bob calls him out for stealing the idea from Lucy. Bart Simpson #47 Li'l Krusty 3 Krusty mentions that he loves chimps as they work for peanuts, clarifying that he means the food, rather than the comic strips. The Simpsons Winter Wingding 6 Grampa's Christmas Origins: Christmas Cards When Lisa can't reach the opening on a mailbox, Bart offers to open it with his scarf, using a trick he learned "from watching old Christmas cartoons on TV". Actually, the trick happens in the Peanuts Halloween special (It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown) when Linus uses his blanket to open a mailbox.
