Does anyone else not like Charlie Brown?

Kind of weird, I know. I loved the Peanuts as a kid. DS is 4.5 and I taped a bunch of Charlie Brown specials for him over the holidays. He loved them, so I put "A Boy Named Charlie Brown" from 1969 on our Netflix queue. The holiday specials are cute, but in this Peanuts movie, I'm noticing a lot of stuff I don't like from a parenting perspective. Charlie Brown saying he's a nothing and he's not good enough for the little red-haired girl. And a scene where Lucy, etc, are dancing around him singing, "You're impossibly dumb." 

Yeah, not liking that. WDYT?

It's boring.  I didn't think so as a kid (and my kids don't), but it is.

 Lucy's mean - and they call Charlie some pretty awful names.

I'm not going to ban my kids from watching it, but yes - I have noticed some things about it...

I DVR'd one of the Christmas ones.  It wasn't one of the originals from the 60s, it had a much more recent release date.  Anyway, I put it on for DD and wasn't really paying attention because I was making dinner, but after hearing the word "stupid" 3 times in about 2 minutes, I stopped and deleted it.  DD has enough of an attitude without learning it from Peanuts!

Can't get into it.
