Is this lame? two 25 year olds watching Charlie Brown?

A 25 year old co-worker of mine (female) asked if I watched Charlie Brown Christmas last night. I said of course. She said she and her 25 year old boyfriend didn't watch it. She went on to say that it would have been lame for two 25 year olds (no kids) to have watched it. I strongly disagree. My thought is you're never to young, old, hip etc... to watch Charlie Brown Christmas.

Do you remember lying in bed

I'm old enough to be the parent of a 25-year-old - and I watch A Charlie Brown Christmas, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer every year. shrug

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

I'm 49, and I watch Charlie Brown, Frosty, Rudolph, and the Grinch every year. Brings back fond memories.

Hell, I'm 43 and I recorded the damn show last year when it aired. lol

That reminds me, I need to pull that DVD out and watch it this year. Not only did I record "A Charlie Brown Christmas" last year, but I also recorded "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer" and "The Year Without A Santa Claus". lol

My husband and I watched it last night. He's 36 and I'm 32.

We have kids, but they were nowhere near us. lol

Charlie Brown is a holiday tradition! That's like saying it would be lame for two 25 year olds to eat turkey on Thanksgiving. Sounds like your coworker is just lame, period. talk to the hand

It's what you make it.

Tell your co-worker to go find some business . . . lol

I have a 22 year old daughter and we will watch Charlie Brown Christmas several times before the holiday. VainAndy and Genesia are mature enough to remember, "Frosty The Snowman", "Little Drummer Boy", "Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer", "Grinch That Stole Christmas (1960)", "Walton's Christmas", and one about Momma Clause, I forgot the title. These movies were shown every holiday unitll the late 70's. Now they only air, Charlie Brown Christmas. neutral

Hey, I watched Charlie Brown last night. biggrin And I watched Rudolph the week before that, too. And I'm in my 40's. On top of that, I watch Victorious on Nickelodeon and occasionally catch an iCarly episode as well. Frankly, as silly as those tween comedies are, they're better than Two and a Half Men and any of those Tyler Perry comedies on TBS.

I got you beat!! Not only do my brother and I watch it every year, but when we do, we break out the LP version of the special and play it along with what is going on, on the TV...and we are 43 and 37, respectively.....Not lame at all!!
