It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown is one of many prime-time animated TV specials based upon the popular comic strip Peanuts, by Charles M. Schulz. It was originally aired on the CBS network in 1974. It was released to DVD on March 4, 2003.

The characters prepare for Easter morning, when, according to Linus, the "Easter Beagle" will arrive and hand out Easter eggs to everybody, in a scenario similar to that of the Great Pumpkin. Nobody believes him, and they all go on their way. Lucy schemes to find all the eggs in the annual Easter Egg Hunt by planting all the eggs and recording their positions; Snoopy and Woodstock search for a birdhouse for Woodstock; and Peppermint Patty and Marcie try to make Easter eggs, but Marcie instead fries, roasts, toasts, waffles, and finally makes soup from them. Fortunately for everybody (except Charlie Brown and Lucy), the Easter Beagle (played by Snoopy) arrives and hands out eggs (the ones Lucy planted for the egg hunt) to everyone. He runs out of eggs, so he gives Charlie Brown the basket.
