Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood

*Raph's Girl* · 07-31-2011, 09:24 PM

Well now here's something I wasn't expecting. An animated spin-off of Mr. Roger's Neighborhood is coming in 2012!

Quote:

Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood will feature original Mister Rogers characters who still live in the Neighborhood of Make Believe, but have since grown up and now have children of their own, PBS announced Sunday at PBS' fall TV preview session. Daniel Tiger, the 4-year-old son of the original Tiger, will be the new series' star.

So it's basically Mr. Roger's Neighborhood: The Next Generation.

Not sure why they chose a Tiger, but it looks cute. I wonder if there'll still be puppet segments.

On an unrelated note, did anyone else know that Fred Rogers was friends with George Romero and quite enjoyed Night of the Living Dead?

It's animated and STARS the characters who WERE the puppets. There'll probably be human segments now. *lol*

Daniel Tiger was a favorite of Fred Rogers.. which is why it's his son (and not the prince) who's the lead character in the new show.
