Mister Rogers Daniel Tiger Episodes on PBS
PBS Is Airing Back-to-Back Episodes of Mister Rogers and Daniel Tiger in an Attempt to Blow Our Minds
If it's been a while since you've paid a visit to Mister Rogers's neighborhood, you're in luck. Starting today, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the show's premiere, PBS Kids has scheduled a week-long programming event featuring back-to-back episodes of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. But that's not all: each nostalgic episode will be accompanied by a brand-new episode of the award-winning animated spinoff, Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood.
Did you read that clearly, parents? Not only do your kiddos get a never-before-seen adventure with Daniel and friends, but each will be paired with the Mister Rogers episodes that inspired them, with "complementary themes" of childhood experiences, such as dealing with loss and coping with angry feelings. (Dealing with uncontrollable euphoria is something you'll have to learn on your own time.)
Here's what you have to look forward to:
- Feb. 26: Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood "Daniel's Fish Dies/Daniel's Strawberry Seeds" and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood "Death of a Goldfish"
- Feb. 27: Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood "The Tiger Family Grows/Daniel Learns About Being a Big Brother" and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood "Families"
- Feb. 28: Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood "Visiting Grandpere/The Tiger Family Goes Home" and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood "Grandparents"
- March 1: Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood "Friends Help Each Other/Daniel Helps O Tell a Story" and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood "Friends"
- March 2: Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood "Daniel Gets Mad/Katerina Gets Mad" and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood "Mad Feelings"
Be sure to check your local PBS station listings for exact airtimes. You (we mean your kids) won't want to miss a single one.
