Normaal's posted five episodes in the form Boomerang is probably going to air on its web site--you can make up your own mind:
http://normaal.fr/filmography/peanuts-de-schulz/?lang=en Positive was the animation and design being very faithful to Schulz and that their English-language voice caster (who does voices on a lot of their other shows) was able to find American-sounding kids in Paris, not to mention that Normaal doesn't farm out anything to Asia, including doing their own sound production. The negative is that the music is very synthy and they didn't even try to do something that sounded like Vince Guaraldi (and the Boomerang promo includes "Linus and Lucy," which I assume Turner had to pay to use). Normaal's only other series with an American pickup is something called "Tangerine and Cow," which looks like it was sold to CN in the U.S. I have the feeling that Turner will force them to redub the use of "sucks" (as in "that sucks") in the episodes (which pops up in another of their kids series).
