      Teddy B No matter how hard the makers of this special try, this just feels emotionally and comically incomplete through its generalisation of touching themes and its absence of that integral cynical humour that Charles Schulz so effortlessly excelled at. The special is very competent but seems to lean way too much into the heart which reaches levels of almost schmaltzy territory. The worst thing about these new specials is that they just aren't funny, nor do they attempt to be funny. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/24 Full Review Spencer P Apple continues its visually gorgeous resurgence of Peanuts holiday specials with a totally respectful Mother's Day celebration that teaches kids to open up about those with less than ideal families, even if the emotional payoff isn't the strongest. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/07/23 Full Review mike v Snoopy Presents: To Mom (and Dad), With Love, l is a 2022 Peanuts animated special ❤️ It's good 🙂 I'd recommend it if you like this genre 👍🏼 FOR THE ONES THAT HOLD IT ALL TOGETHER Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review ranny l To Mom (and Dad), with Love is a funny and heartwarming animated film about different types of families and how not every family is the same. This 40-minute story featuring the much-loved Peanuts gang appeals to all ages -- old and new fans alike – and will pull you in with its bright colors and sweet storyline. The film has an original point of view on Mother's Day because the main protagonist, Peppermint Patty, doesn't have a mom, though the reason isn't specified. Audiences can only tell that she has a dad, who is very special to her. The story of To Mom (and Dad), with Love jumps from character to character as each does something original for Mother's Day. The main character, Peppermint Patty (voiced by Lexi Perri), has to find her own way to celebrate a holiday that has always been hard for her. By the end, Patty figures out how to celebrate her own unique family. This film shows almost every character celebrating Mother's Day. Lucy (Isabella Leo) tries to make an art project; Charlie Brown (Tyler Nathan) and his sister, Sally (Hattie Kragten), experiment with a lot of ideas; and other characters, including Snoopy (Terry Mcgurrin) and Woodstock (Rob Tinkler) do something creative and unique for their families, too! To Mom (and Dad), with Love has a theme of embracing differences and being yourself, as well as celebrating moms (and dads) and caretakers in whatever form they take. I give To Mom (and Dad), with Love 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 6 to 14, plus adults. It releases on Apple TV May 6, 2022, just ahead of Mother's Day! By Samantha P., KIDS FIRST!
