Love fills the air as Valentine's Day approaches--but it's mostly unrequited love for the Peanuts gang, in A Charlie Brown Valentine. The first new Peanuts feature to be created after cartoonist Charles M. Schulz's death in 2000, this 25-minute show looks and sounds like earlier Charlie Brown fare: vividly animated round-faced kids (penned by the king of the uberpopular newspaper comic strip, himself) and a skippy piano score. Chuck still can't attract the little red-headed girl, Peppermint Patty can't sway his affections, and Schroeder ignores Lucy's blatant request for kisses and chocolate. But this story lacks the heart of Charlie Brown's Halloween and Christmas specials, in which characters occasionally step away from their ponderings to skate, dance, or just act like kids. Instead, chronic whining hogs nearly all the action. When Chuck finally dons a tuxedo for his date at the school Valentine's Day dance, the payoff feels too little, too late.
