I miss this type of man. They don't make them like this anymore .
*RIP Mr Schultz*
I loved his work but if your read the biography about him he cheated on his first wife and other sad things .
We are making new friends every day. No two are exactly alike, even identical twins!
@@vegetariansuniteworldwide8091
Yea he was talented but his personal life wasn’t really good as many people think, he did some really dark stuff. He never seems to condemn Lust. It probably explains why there is so much unrequited love storylines in the strips
As long as we want to be this type of person it is possible. Might be up to us to make ourselves into one.
@@vegetariansuniteworldwide8091 and?
One of the most important people in my life. Good ol' Charlie Schulz.
What a good and cool guy
I agree, mine too....thank goodness we had him and all of his fantastic heartwarming characters
Sparky!
Yes.
Sparky
Reading Peanuts books on a fresh morning with a bowl of cereal (sometimes soggy) and my dog beside me, is one of my best childhood memories.
😊😇
After seventy,,, life is time warp speed.
Childhood ? I love doing that now, at 75 !
@@axiomist4488 At 71 I’m not too far behind you and I still enjoy Peanuts too!
Interesting human. For all his self-deprecating humor, he really has a strong belief in himself.
Elana Vital well said
15:14
I think he's very interesting as well. He put a lot of his own feelings into all the characters. A lot of Charlie Brown was indeed him in real life.
Watch the 32min doc on here. You will learn more about him and realize he didn't always have that strong belief in his ability.
@koreancardboard Everyone has moments of doubt but if there was 1 thing in his life he knew he could do, it's "draw funny pictures".
R.i. p your talent will never be forgotten
What a charming disposition of humility and well-earned pride. All my life I have cherished my Peanuts cartoon books. I remember reading them up in my attic as a child and being so happy. I always wanted to know about Charles Schulz, and it took me until my 40's to find out - and I'm glad I did. He's wonderful.
Mr. Schulz was an absolute genius. He created an enduring & endearing cast of characters who will remain with us for a long, long time. I am 65 years old, and still greatly enjoy good ole Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang. Thank you, Mr. Schulz. RIP!
He's my idol
And so is Walt disney
He is a "real artist". Charles Schultz's work has lasted beyond his lifetime. Bravo!
Mr. Schultz, a once in a lifetime talent! Love his sense of humor and the pride he takes in his work.
Comic strips have not been the same since...
I visited the Charles Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa this year. They have his office on display, including his drawing board, desk, library of books, and drawing media. Looking at his collection of books said a lot about him, but his collection of bibles and other Christian books is what stood out the most to me.
One of my best childhood memories is watching Charles Shulz play hockey with other elderly men at the Snoopy ice rink in Santa Rosa. I'll never forget the kindness he showed to my brother and I who were excited Peanuts fans. Great man.
NEVER interrupt a Genius like Charles M Schultz. What he is going to say in infinitely more interesting than what your question might be.
Right! I don't like the interview guy's vibe. He's just got a weird aura
rip, you're still one of my biggest inspiration
He not only created a group of wonderful and distinct and relatable characters ... but in addition he added all those clever and whimsical running gags that we loved so much: Linus writing to (and waiting for) the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown having trouble at summer camp each year, Snoopy versus the Cat Next Door, etc. To succeed in that field of comics was challenging enough--and then to do it for decades, wow. Remarkable.
As a child in the 1970's, I loved reading Peanuts in the funnies each day; back then you had fewer smiles and laughs to brighten each day ... today we have access to so much, it's very different. I cherish my bookshelf of his comic strip collections and treasuries. I read some every year.
Mr. Schulz will forever have my gratitude for bringing me joy and entertainment.
I envy you
@@orlandoalessandrini2505 Sometimes I forget how nice my childhood was. It's good to be reminded.
@@eduardo_corrochio I also think Schultz made the right decision of not letting anyone else continue Peanuts. As much as I would like to see new strips it wouldn’t be the same. He knew Charlie Brown and the kids better than anyone else and drew them better than anyone else. Of course more people watch the Peanuts specials than read the comics nowadays. Do you agree Schultz made the right decision not to let the strip be taken over by a different cartoonist?
@@huntercoleman460 Oh, yes. 100% yes. I could not agree *more* about Schulz's choice to not let anyone else create strips after he stopped making them. I still remember the announcement when he retired, and I had such respect for the decision. Then, for him to die the day before his final Sunday strip hit the presses, that was so strange. For me it seemed like the cosmos had said, "His work is done, he can relax now, and have some fun". And today when I see artists on RUclips drawing images from Peanuts I get cranky because it's sacrilege to me. I understand they are not creating new strips and they are copying existing work, but they shouldn't. Even something like this video below skeeves me out, and I feel like snapping "You _shouldn't_ be drawing those characters, they're his--- not yours! Leave 'em alone!". :D

I discovered that there is an animated web/TV series from France based on Peanuts comics. They have a watercolory look to them and they use his comedy situations. I suppose it's considered an affectionate homage or tribute to Schulz. But it's annoying because since these are geared to kids they decided to pepper in the sound of children gleefully shouting the word "PEANUTS!!!" every time you watch an episode. It's distracting and completely unnecessary.
The recent CGI cartoon film from 2015 was cute but I have no desire to watch it a second time. It tried to capture the spirit of the original material, and I believe Schulz's son was at the helm or at least supervising production in some way. But it's not "my Peanuts", what I grew up with ... it's someone trying to recreate that. If I do need a good feature film of the Peanuts gang I will watch the marvelous musical/drama/comedy movie A Boy Named Charlie Brown, from 1969. What a great film; it's sweet, funny, touching, and entertaining.
I was in 5th grade when he passed away and I remember feeling so devastated when it happened. The visions still come to mind from the archives of People magazine: You were a good man, Charles Schulz!
He is too inspiring. I read his biography of 600 pages in a couple of months and I understand more about him.
@Pyro Head did anyone ask tho
I love hearing what Sparky has to say, but I just cannot bear having to listen to Charlie Rose interrupt and simplify Schulz’s ideas.
Rights? I 100% don't dig
Besides being a womanizer, anogg try her reason I’m glad Rose was taken off the air. Every interview was more about his take on what the guest says, instead of the guest’s words just standing on their own. Very frustrating.
* another
I can watch this a lot and not get tired of it.
I started watching charlie brown in 2019. This mans work has clearly made it to the next generation.
I started watching when I was 4
I was born 2007
You are still with us which is what I feel. Not only a gifted person, a precious soul. Thanks for that wonderful interview...
An absolute legend of the format.... Wish he lived forever
It was fitting that Charles Schulz died on the day his final Peanuts comic strip was published.
Schulz was an oustandingly gifted artist, not 'just' a comics genius. His skill in drawing the human emotions, his taste for narrative pace, his simple yet highly stylish craftsmanship put him at an Old Master level. Thank you for what you gave to humankind, Sparky.
Charles Schulz how can I forget you? You have been a great artist, creative, sweet, sensitive and intelligent. I think of you with respect and love. Fabio from Italy.
13:25 He was so right....I remember getting rejected once by a girl (& it was like the 3rd in a row or something) and just retreating to my room or whatever and replaying her 'no' in my head and thinking all this, all I am, all I've become (and having sort of a slide show of my childhood all the way up to that moment playing) isn't good enough for her. The things I've learned, the things I've accomplished, the improvements in my character and appearance - all that wasn't enough to make her want me. And I thought of the Rock Biter in The Neverending Story after the Nothing had taken his friends and he sadly looked into his giant rock hands and slowly said "They look like such strong hands..." This melancholy was the underlying drive in Schultz's life and I wonder if it is the same thing that in some way made me want to be a cartoonist too.
What a blessing and a gift this man was. He means so incredibly much to me and Charlie Brown has made a wonderful impact in my life since I was 9. My mother had the opportunity to meet him back in 1968.
Is this really charlles schluz I'm a big fan of his work im a big peanuts fan
Wow, I've know n about Sparky for 10 years (I'm 15) and never realized he had such a Minnesotan accent! That's super cool!
neros1234 you’re right.
Still an inspiration. What a great man. I hope he knew that.
What a lovely man and arguably the greatest cartoonist of all time. An absolute legend. The peanuts are still amazingly funny and entertaining. I do think more than almost any cartoonist his work has reached multiple generations.
What's amazing about Shultz's drawing is the great range of facial expressions from a few basic lines.
was planning on watching about 5 mins of this for a school assignment, ended up staying till the end. such a great interview and man
I learned english with the first Peanuts books in english I bought at around 12. Now I'm 67 and I have his complete works, and have gone through them at least 4 times. They are still up to date, what a wonderful body of work and a great man he was. By pure chance just yesterday I read the strip where Charley Brown is afraid of being happy and then falls of his chair, and laughed out loud!
Rest In Peace Charles. You’re the best
Reminds me a lot of my father. I love both of them!
I don't watch this interview a lot, but sometimes when I'm feeling low, I do watch it. ♥
What a sweet fantastic person.
and a womanizer, kid beater.
What the fuck are you saying
@@listenhealthily Excuse me?
A cartoon legend of major proportions peanuts was so revaloutionary because of how much we related to the characters how alike we were the amazing humor it had and of course the popularity of the phenomenal mischavious snoopy and Woodstock Rip sparky we will never forget you
Should there be a movie about Mr. Schulz's life, who should play him
Justin Long
Gene Wilder if he were still alive
Tom Hanks !
Tom Hanks
Pierce Brosman
He made my childhood ,it was my favorite cartoon for me & my best friend who died recently , whenever i feel insecure about her death i watch Peanuts & smurfs ,it is like a therapy . Rip Mr Shulz
Good ol' Charlie Schulz!
Oh to be the one who could spend a day talking with Sparky would totally be a dream come true!
My favorite comic strip growing up. I think what I loved about it as a kid is Schulz never 'talked down' or tried to make a kiddie strip, it was always talking to you like a reasonable, capable person. If you didn't know what a word meant, you'd go look it up.
Wisdom is priceless. Just be able recognize it. RIP kind soul
Thank you. Wonderful ❤️ still now 2020.
I remember when the final Peanuts comic strip was published. It was also the day that Charles Schulz died.
Just loved this man . He always brought us smiles and laughs every day !, He was a nice person too !
Do you agree he made the right decision not to let anyone else continue the strip?
So true about not making a spin off. Thanks to both of you. Great work
Miss you Charles
SnoopyDoo his ungrateful gold digging ex wife I’m thinking
Ew. Stop. That's the mother of his children. She divorced him because he cheated on her. Don't demonize her.
Good Charles Schulz, a great man...
The appreciation I have for Peanuts is because of the love I have for the characters, as they are archetypal, I can see people I have met reflected in those characters.
In my opinion there is no better. Charlie Brown will live forever!
Thank you Mr Charles Schulz for giving us the peanut gang!
Hey boss man u an ur staff change th world 🌍🌎. around many times we all Thnk u from great fans here in Columbia SC in United States
Wish I could talk with Sparky for a day and shoot the shit about life! He is one of my top inspirations!
GoodxJ maybe in heaven we can meet him
You meet him through his work all the time. I do. And I loved being with him too. www.linkedin.com/pulse/peanuts-do-i-hear-345-million-vivian-greene/
Same here
The irony of Charles pointing out the death of a friend from cancer. He died just 3 years later after this interview of colon cancer.
he was so nice
Wow I didn't know that Charles Schulz sometimes looked up to Walt disney
I hate it when people say that Walt Disney was an animator he was for a short time he just came up with ideas and gave them out to artists so they can create his idea
And interestingly enough, those men are two of my most favorite people ever.
12:22 The secret to every great artist. Turning pain into joy. “Happiness is not funny” LOL
Schulz has an excellent sense of humor as he describes his career, skills and cartooning.
Wonderful interview!
love you charles you were a big part of my childhood...
Hai fondato un impero su un ragazzino con un cagnolino. Riposa in pace Charles, non ti dimenticheremo mai. Con i tuoi personaggi hai fatto divertire generazioni di ragazzini, onore alla più grande leggenda dei fumetti di tutti i tempi
Great interview.
What a wonderful, wonderful person!
Great interview
FANTASTIC TALENT, WONDERFUL HUMORIST, GREAT MAN , LOVE!!!!!!
So modest!
A NATIONAL TREASURE…actually one of the World’s Special Treasures! He captured the universal challenges and personality we all encounter…while laughing. GREAT MUSIC, God Bless Vince! But what was so special about the Peanuts specials is the timing and space of silence between dialogues and the calmness of the voices, even when they shouted, the soundtrack was always pleasing. Brilliant! Genius! What a humble, great Christian man! What a gift from God!
Who the heck disliked this?
Exacly
Garfield fans
Lucy van pelt
@@pop4komet 😂
@@pop4komet a bunch of block heads lol
28:12 Well considering people still know about Snoopy and Charlie Brown I'd say Sparky's comics are art according to him
I really wish I could’ve met the great Charles Schulz
Happy birthday Sparky!
What a legend he was. RIP. I love peanuts😊
Watching this reminds me of how much we have lost since Charles Schulz's heyday. Or Charlie Rose's, for that matter.
4 feature films? since 2015 its now been 5
Such an interesting man. Somewhat sad, somewhat happy... self-deprecating but also with self-worth. He was the walking embodiment of melancholy.
His art definitely belongs in art galleries
Thank you got to see and hear an a elevated human being.
THE GOAT
You hear the word "gentleman" all the time. Charles Schulz is truly a gentle man.
Charles was a gift to humanity
This was a great interview, of a surprisingly complex man, a mix of humility and pride of accomplishment. A friend of mine, a fellow comics fan, was always convinced that Schulz at bottom had a streak of cruelty, that drove him to never let Charlie Brown kick the football, not once, not even at the end of the strip. I don't know that Sparky had meanness in him, but I think he did carry some resentments, disappointments and perhaps a grudge against all who doubted or rejected him, that expressed themselves in these kinds of plot lines. Anyway, he was certainly an absolute giant in our culture, and I think time has already proven that he achieved his own definition of real art.
I’m proud to say we share the same birthday!
I remember the newspaper article Mr. Schulz mentioned that said it was time to retire the strip. I'm surprised it would have bothered him. It was obviously written by an unknown newspaper journalist who was desperately trying to come up with an idea for an article. Gee, what was the name of the guy who wrote the article and what had he accomplished in his life at the time, or since that time? Probably very little compared to what Charles Schultz accomplished.
Another level.
My young nephews love the Charlie Brown comic strips, as did I as a child. The Charlie Brown comics is art.
I grew up with Charlie Brown and all the characters. I looked forward to reading the strip everyday, and Charles Schulz was a hero. The world needs more Sparkys.
"When nobody loves you, you have to pretend everybody loves you." -???
Charles Schulz would be proud to know that comic artists are given beautiful exhibitions nowadays.
He lives forever
"You're wonderful." Wonderful indeed.
Thank you so much Charles Schulz for saving our world with your philosophy, art, human understanding, your unique sense of humor, resilience, positivity, You are an awesome Treasure 💐🪴🍀
Snoopy lives with me everywhere and every day.
Of course, Lucy keeps me grounded 🦥🐿🦩🍄
Be happy in your Galaxy 🦚🐳🦋🦄🦅
legend.
life is unfair , cause he didn't see the best movie of Charlie Brown , probably he would cry a lot seeing it
El Jay I agree he would not like the fact that the little red haired girl is seen or the fact that he gets to talk to her.He would be really unhappy with that but I think he would like the rest of film .
@@nightisright1873 I think the movie was sent as a love letter to the father from the sons of Charles Schulz (they executive produced the film and oversaw every detail). The little redhead girl always represented the one great dream Charlie could never obtain and never thought he was worthy of- In the movie well - he finally got to see her and talk and wow she said how wonderful Charlie Brown really was. What a twist. Also having Charlie Brown be validated as a winner at the end and carried away by his friends, I think it brought closure to his comic series and is like a "rest in peace" to their dad who admitted he shared Charlie Brown's insecurities about his own worth.
@@jlgmail1580 While it's so nice that Schulz's son and grandkid wanted to bring a Peanuts movie to today's kids and to honor their dad's massive legacy of humor, there are some important and unspoken rules they should have stuck by when they wrote the film. Charlie Brown must not succeed in baseball, nor talk to the little red haired girl, or kick the football. That changes everything, if these things are altered. Now, I understand that a lot of kids and families today crave happy endings and need the underdog to overcome challenges, but this particular type of comedy that Mr. Schulz made hinged on failure ... because everyone fails, and everyone can relate to it. And failure is *funny* (as Schulz says himself in this interview above). The 2015 movie, Peanuts, was cute and visually striking, but for me it didn't capture what the comic strip was all about. And that's just _odd_ to me-- since his own son and grandson wrote it.
*Happy 💯 years Mr.Schulz !;)*
Big hearted man!
A great talented man indeed
Nobody can draw Charlie Brown's head with a shaky crowquill. Not even Sparky sometimes. Charlie Brown has a misshapen head and the thing is all the features are lined up. The ears eyes and nose are on the same line and we're used to drawing them on three different lines.
