MR ROGERS IS THE SHIZ!

IT'S A HELL OF A DAY IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD,
IT'S A HELL OF A DAY TO BE A NEIGHBOUR!
AND TO BE WRATHFUL, EVEN CRANKY!

ONE OF MY FAVOURITE SHOWS GROWING UP (AND I STILL WATCH IT SPORADICALLY) IS MR. ROGER'S NEIGHBOURHOOD. I LOOKED FORWARD TO HEARING HIS CALM & REASSURING VOICE, AND THE NEAT THINGS WE WOULD LEARN EVERY DAY. I LEARNED TO PLAY AN INSTRUMENT OR 4 BECAUSE OF MY DAILY DOSE OF PBS. I ALSO DEVELOPED THE HABIT OF CHANGING MY SHOES & INTO COMFY CLOTHES WHEN I GET HOME.
THE SHOW WAS QUITE REVOLUTIONARY WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT IN THE EARLY 60'S, AND THE SAME THINGS THAT MAKE IT GREAT ARE WHAT KEEP IT ON IN SYNDICATION TO THIS DAY. KIDS NEED THAT SAFE & REASSURING PLACE. SADLY IN THIS HYPERACTIVE WORLD THAT IS RARE TO FIND AT HOME...BUT IT'S ALWAYS ON CHANNEL 13.

SO HERE'S TO YOU MR ROGERS...BEST...NEIGHBOUR...EVER!
