Mister Rogers Remixed


I'm still not quite sure what to make of this.  I loved watching Mister Rogers' Neighborhood while growing up, and it's great that his legacy is being kept alive.  But I have to admit, I find this new video a little creepy.  I can't quite put my finger on it, it just seems weird - not to mention a little trippy.

I feel bad for the kids today growing up without Fred Rogers.  Sure, maybe some PBS still show the reruns - although I don't think it's on here anymore.  Luckily, the Fred Rogers Company is still watching over the neighborhood online.  The show's site lets children watch full episodes, and features games and coloring pages as well.  The company also offers resources for parents on its website, offering advice on helping children through various situations - topics like losing a loved one, dealing with divorce, or learning about disabilities.
