In this combined animated and live-action special, we meet an aerobics instructor, Jenny, who wants to be a big city jazz dancer.

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
RetroPizzaTimeCritic The special about Charlie Brown read the letter to Snoopy its from his brother Spike, He tell him when He met the Girl in red truck named Jenny She to taken him in her house before her husband show up, his name is Jeff. Jeff taken Jenny and their friend named Molly on it way to skating party but spike is no where he gone before their looking for him but coyote hunters show up to kill him. and so Spike will stay in the desert for his own home.This Peanuts special is for my childhood, I watch this movie when I was baby but I really love it, and so my mom too. but I really love this movie so much, Please Warner Home Video I want This Peanuts Special on DVD so badly. I don't know why Peanuts fans out there didn't like this special I kindly like this its Guilty Pleasure special for me
Maddox Cox This is very odd, do i really want to watch an hour long met life commercial. With non-trombone adults and Spike included. Also with no other major characters.HERE YOU GO FAN!! HERE IS YOUR DEVIANTART GIRL IN THE RED TRUCK METLIFE MOVIE!!! LOL!!!
Oregonstarfish My family watched this so often that the tape broke many times and was repaired many times. Would like to see "FULL SCREEN DVD" version made in the near future.. The filming location was great also. Made us want to travel. The acting was good. The music was good. The animation was good also. My kids were 5-9 years of age. They all enjoyed it for mutual reasons but individual reasons as well.. Story plot was good for children...because of how to handle a strong desire in life to come to fruition and not hurting others around you in getting there I guess. I also enjoyed this movie and that I was cute. If it ever was remade onto DVD format I would but it for each of my kids now that they are adults, one married with 3 children. She can share the memories with her children.....
katbeavis I got to thinking about this movie the other day and how much i loved it when i was little. I just couldn't remember the name though so I searched on here until I found it. I was surprised no one had commented on it. I think this was a good movie for little kids. It features Snoopy's cousin Spike living in the desert. He meets the girl in the Red Truck and they have much fun together. I don't remember much else about it though, but I do know any one who is a fan of the Peanuts will probably enjoy it!
