Character Profile: Peppermint Patty

In my previous video I mentioned that my favorite peanut

character

, other than Snoopy, is Peppermint Pattie. Since she was introduced in 1966, she has been a unique entry in the Peanuts canon and, aside from Charlie Brown, she seems to be the

character

that many people identify with the most. It was established that Peppermint Patty is not the brightest character nor the most academically skilled. She constantly showed me that she was falling asleep and that I wasn't doing well in school. Shaul Schultz got a lot of comedic mileage out of this, though thankfully not at his expense. I see her struggle throughout the school year and she really does her best.

The key to her time at school is a close relationship with Marcy, who sits behind her despite Marcy's best efforts. Her intelligence doesn't seem to rub off on Peppermint Patty, who is so absent and full of personality. The two are the perfect couple and Marcy at least tries to keep Peppermint Patty at bay. An element that is not often mentioned is home life, which plays a large role in her tomboyish attitude, her dress sense, and her academic performance. Since she does not have a mother, either because she passed away or left Peppermint Patty, she has a close relationship with his father.

Part of the reason she tends to sleep during school is that she actually always waits for her father to come home late from work. The reason she always wears her famous sandals is also because her father bought them specifically for her, which creates a story arc where the school implements a dress code and forces her to wear shoes that are actually quite heartbreaking. One of Peppermint Patty's defining traits is her frequent interest in children and, interestingly, Snoopy since when you first met Snoopy, she saw him as the funny kid with the big nose and for some reason she doesn't realize that he is a dog in Snoopy.

When she returns home, she even goes to the beach with Snoopy and feels that she came. her too strong and she feels partly responsible for driving him away. She has also shown to have a crush on Charlie Brown and, in fact, feels self-conscious upon discovering that she is much more interested in the little redhead, as I mentioned in my previous video. a story arc in which Pepper Patty went on a blind date, then fell in love with him, and also fell in love with him in the vaudeville feature ARS Charlie Brown and Don't Come Back Peppermint Patty, also things that new friend Pierre is in love with refer to screw it up and Marcy clearly has something, of course, we all know that many years later she broke up with Marcy anyway and they happily married this year, oh that's not canon.

Peppermint Patty was the subject of some of the funniest story arcs in comics. She actually lives in a nearby neighborhood with Franklin and Marcy, so they go to a different school than the other kids when the school collapsed. Charlie Brown and the rest of the gang had to go to Peppermint Patty's school and she and Chuck sit together, this led to an Alerus exchange when they both shared the same desk and Peppermint. Patty's constant pestering of Charlie Brown led to them getting into trouble. This part was so good. Schultz and Bill Melendez adapted it twice for animation, first partially recreated in Bombay.

Arts Charlie Brown when they participate in a currency exchange show and then again in an episode of the Charlie Brown and Snoopy show which was exactly word for word, although I think the voices in Bombay about Charlie Brown are a little better, sorry ma'am , my desk. buddy here is a very coordinated don't breathe through your mouth Chuck don't lick your fingers when you turn the pages Chuck and don't scratch your feet on the desk stop criticizing me another good mess you've gotten me into Chuck

Patty has some arches too fun storylines with Snoopy, as said before she thought Snoopy was a boy for many years until in one arc he decides he doesn't want to go to school anymore and prefers to stay on top of Snoopy's doghouse, I mean to Chuck's boarding house in the end everything falls apart due to Snoopy's annoyance and Marcie finally reveals that Snoopy is a beagle too mint.

Patty's Endless Confusion Even though Peppermint Patty now has knowledge of Snoopy's species, she still follows her advice to go to an obedient school because she wants to. to a cheap private school and of course hilarity ensues, even leading to a fight with a vicious cat next door. There is also a comic series where Peppermint Pattie tries to find some missing school gold stars and she uses Snoopy as her decoy and meanwhile Marcie gets confused. At the sudden silence and doglike tendencies of her best friend, even if she wasn't the brightest girl in the neighborhood, she outperformed the other girls and even some boys on the sports field.

One of the few times she voluntarily wore something other than her sandals was when she joined a figure skating competition, Peppermint Patty even had her own song on her flash poster, Charlie Brown, which she sings about for her fellow jocks and tires to the other kids and yeah, this whole special was really inspired by Charles being a huge Flashdance fan in conclusion. While Peppermint Pattie may not appear on the marquee like Charlie Brown or receive the most marketing attention like Snoopy, she has proven to be a standout and has gotten some of the funniest comic arcs in Peanuts history and certainly I hope to see you.

How the team behind the Misery movie wrote it. I have a feeling that everything else in the film will have done it justice. See you next time.
