A tribute to Mr. Rogers

[Brave Volunteer]

When I first saw this, I thought it was going to be a joke. However I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this is a very nice tribute from PBS Digital to the late great Fred Rogers.

For those of you who may not be old enough to remember, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood was a children's show that ran on PBS from 1968 -2001. Fred Rogers was beloved by millions of children worldwide. He was a very kind and gentle soul that cared about nothing but helping children. On his TV show he encouraged children to discover and always use their imaginations. His "Neighborhood of Make Believe" characters became icons to many and his lessons still ring true to this day. Enjoy this amazing tribute to one our most beloved national treasures!

Lose Mr. Rodgers and add Jonathan Winters.......

I never, for whatever reason liked "the neighborhood". Now Eddie Murphy playing Mr. Rodgers on the other hand.

His show ran until 1971. I'm not yet 50 but knocking on the door.

"It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood"

I remember watching the show and I always wanted him to pick the green sweater at the beginning of each show.

I miss watching his show. Brings back good memories.

Agreed... I had an opportunity to study under him for a whole summer for an open school summer program at a very small school in earlyish 70's.

Flip Wilson was pretty funny too. (at least as far as I can remember )

 

[volinbham]

Flip Wilson was awesome but Geraldine wasn't exactly the same as Mr Rogers
