It’s the 50th episode of “From Pencils to Pixels!” To commemorate the occasion, Scott and Michael look back 50 years ago, at animation from 1976. From that year, they discuss the Peanuts TV special “It’s Arbor Day, Charlie Brown,” the Italian feature film “Allegro non troppo,” the debut of such Saturday morning cartoons as “Jabberjaw,” animation created to celebrate the Bicentennial, and more.
They also discuss animation they’ve been catching up on, such as the Disney+ series “Maul: Shadow Lord,” and the Netflix film, “Swapped.”
