Any word on "Riffed" Peanuts specials?

Did anything ever come out of that plan to riff the Peanuts holiday specials (or any other holiday specials)? If that one small segment is any indication, I think those Rifftrax would be a real moneymaker for both Legend Films and Iconix. Though I have to admit that after seeing what Iconix did to the people who ran Peanutweeter, they may be a bunch of sourpusses who don't want their property to be satirized.

I really like the Cinester Theater riffs of the Christmas and Halloween specials. I wish they would do more.

I'd love to see a riff for Snoopy Come home or What a Nightmare, Charlie Brown.

My personal wish is for a riff of It's Magic, Charlie Brown.

That would be cool. I always had a soft spot for that one because it was the ONLY time Charlie Brown kicked the football.

It's been a while since I saw it, but I remember him deliberately kicking Lucy. Now THAT was satisfying! Plus the special has a mixture of magic that works and magic that doesn't.

It's been a few years since I saw it too. I don't remember him kicking her. I love whenever the main character is invisible in animation, you can really save a few bucks on not having to animate.

But I always found it to be an immensely satisfying little special, I found myself wanting to see what else Snoopy could do with magic.
