Wissenswertes
The calendars through which the time machine falls into the various holidays are all correct for the year the film was released, 1971 ... including New Year's Day and the holidays following, in which (if the holidays were visited in sequence) the calendars should have rolled over to the next year.

Patzer
Antoine asks "in the rules of April Valley, does it say that the eggs must be given on Easter?" to which Peter replies no. Peter then eventually gives away eggs on St. Patrick's Day. But Colonel Bunny said earlier that whoever delivers the most eggs on Easter becomes the new ruler of April Valley and Chief Easter Bunny. Thus, Peter shouldn't have won at the end.

Zitate
Seymour S. Sassafras: Now of course it's all very nice here, thanks to Peter Cottontail and... hmm? You've never heard of Peter Cottontail? Great chattering chick-chicks!

Seymour S. Sassafras: They've never heard of Peter Cottontail!
Sassafras's Hat: They've never heard of Peter Cottontail?

Alternative Versionen
The Blu-ray release from Classic Media/Universal has most of the songs shortened or removed in their entirety, due to an edited-for-TV print being used.

Woefully forgotten special

Unlike Christmas, Easter doesn't really get that many TV specials made in its honor. It really is a shame, since Here Comes Peter Cottontail is every bit as worthy of TV airtime as the beloved Christmas Rankin-Bass specials.

The music is all memorable, my personal favorites being "Be Mine Today," "Hope is There," and most of all, the wistful "If I Could Only Get Back to Yesterday" sung by the multi-talented Danny Kaye, who narrates the story. The characters are fun, save for Bonnie the Bonnet, whose voice is a bit grating. Vincent Price steals the show as the malicious Irontail, out to revenge his maimed tail by ruining Easter for the kids. Casey Kasem is appealing and tons of fun as Peter.

The special is great for kids, but its charm and messages about responsibility and hope will appeal to older folks as well. It's good viewing, whether it's Easter or not!
