Revealing mistake: At the Halloween Party, a girl with a green dress says to Charlie Brown, "Charlie Brown, you'll have to model for us." When she says this, she suddenly grows a third hand, then she has two hands again a little later.
It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966)
1 revealing mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Bill Melendez
Starring: Peter Robbins, Sally Dryer, Cathy Steinberg, Christopher Shea, Kathy Steinberg
Continuity mistake: When Linus mails his letter to the Great Pumpkin, it can be seen that the mailbox has no writing on it. On close-ups, "U.S. MAIL" is written on the side of the box. (00:07:20)
Sally Brown: If you try to hold my hand, I'll slug you.
Trivia: Kathy Steinberg, the actress who voiced Sally, almost had to be replaced. Just as they were approaching the end of her recording sessions, Steinberg's mother rang executive producer Lee Mendelson one night in a panic because Kathy had a loose tooth and the gap in her teeth could cause a lisp in her voice that would sound different from the dialogue they had already recorded. The crew had to rush Steinberg into the recording studio as soon as it opened in order to get the rest of her lines on tape. Mendelson said that Steinberg's tooth dropped out as she spoke her last line.
Question: There is something I don't understand about Linus in this special. He is flattered when Sally flirts with him by saying he says the cutest things, and that he's so intelligent. Linus usually rejects Sally's feelings whenever she flirts him. Why should this be any different?

Answer: From what I've seen, usually Sally is often annoying Linus with her flirting when he has nothing in common with her, or he's just trying to do something to help her and she tries to make it into more. Here, Sally's comments make Linus think she believes in the Great Pumpkin too, or is at least interested in hearing more about it. It's more that he's excited she likes the same thing as he does. Later in the pumpkin patch, he's happy she's there because he wants to share the experience with someone, not because he has any feeling towards Sally.
