Question:I prefer "snoopy" the musical, which is apparently a sequel to you're a good man, charlie brown, but both musicals have really annoying breaks with the laws of the Peanuts universe. Anyone else wish someone would make a Peanuts musical that used more of the music from the shows and stuck closer to the story-lines originally written?

First off, "Snoopy" is not a sequal. It's a British version of the Peanuts comics.
Secondly, I'm ok with the versions. "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown" is more like the comics. Considering it's pretty much a bunch of shorts (like a revue) with the plots of the original comics. Snoopy has more along the plot line of "Snoopy, Come Home".
However, when turning shorts into a full length Broadway/White Way performance, people need to add to make it longer. It happens all the time in movies. Sometimes you just need to suck it up and realize that's the way it's gotta be. I hate it sometimes, but I got used to it after a while.
