Fade into Charlie Brown in a medical office, lying on a table draped in gown looking seriously at the camera.
CB – “I hope he doesn’t loose his ring.”
DR (off camera) – “Nurse, did I leave my wedding ring in the scrub room?”

Wipe to Pig-Pen standing next to a piano playing Schroeder

Flash to Title Shot with a brown streaked Woodstock fluttering across the title.
Unseen Announcer – “That’s It’s the Great Charlie Brown Proctologist Special, tune in to see the world premier, this Saturday at seven, eight Central. Fun for the whole family!.”

I can’t imagine why CBS rejected it. It’s got great cross generational demographic appeal and an obvious targeted ad base to boot!
Oh well, I’m liking the Lucy as a homeland security agent, very contemporary should play well with a modern audience. Maybe I’ll ask my backers to sit in on @thorninmud‘s pitch!
