"His values are very, very different from Fred's values."

Let's see if Needy Amin has the sand to get into it with Mrs. Rogers.

In 1969, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood had been on PBS for a year, Sesame Street was starting and we landed on the moon. As a young child in that era, the future seemed far brighter than it has become.

The trailer made my heart swell but Mister Rogers was tremendously important to me when I was young and I miss the real one. But if Mrs. Joanne is happy, I’m happy.

You all saw it. The man beat the woman unconcious with a puppet. Oh the papers will say that Fred Rogers won, but in my opinion it's a dark day in Mr. Roger's neighborhood.
