Special: The Cutting Room Floor

INTRODUCTION

Hello. HPDrummerman here. As we get closer to the second season of PEANUTS: The Next Chapter, I am reminded of what has happened so far during the first season. From the new kid Ox coming to town, to Lucy joining a street gang, to one of the members of said street gang losing their lives, and to Charlie Brown's team finally winning a season opener, it has been quite a ride so far. And Season 1 was just the beginning. As seen in the Season Finale of Season 1 and in the special Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown 2: Return to Camp Remote, Dolores comes back to the PEANUTS universe. Dolores's roots in the world of PEANUTS doesn't involve the strip, nor does it involve the TV specials, either. She was created specifically for a series of educational film strips starring the PEANUTS gang during the late 1970s and early 1980s. And she was exclusive to those film strips. But this year (2018), Dolores has enjoyed a bit of a renaissance as of recently, as she began appearing in the popular game app Snoopy's Town Tales, along with other obscure characters who appeared in different PEANUTS-related stories, TV shows and movies (Let's just pray that they don't resurrect Charlotte Braun!).

Anyway, in this special, we will look back at the previous episodes of the series. But rather than do highlights, I decided to showcase scenes that were considered for each episode. Some of these idea I considered adding into the stories as I typed them; others are alternative versions of what was ultimately used. So, to help launch Season 2 of PEANUTS: The Next Chapter, here we go with our special, "The Cutting Room Floor".

UP NEXT: THE FUN BEGINS!
