"It's such a good feeling to know your alive". Does that line ring a bell? If you watched Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood as a kid, you are probably singing the song right now. I had forgotten about Mr. Rogers until the other day when that song popped into my head.
I don't remember if I really liked the show that much, but I do know that I watched it a lot. Looking back on it now, I'm glad I did. Mr. Rogers was a great influence on generations of kids, including myself. He made 895 episodes of that show to provide kids with something educational and entertaining to watch. He also composed the famous songs you know from the show such as "Won't You Be My Neighbor".
Reflecting on myself after looking back on the show as an adult, I can see how it has had an influence on my character. Even certain phrases I like came from that show. I don't know if PBS is still airing the show, but if not, they should really bring it back, or use it as a model for new kids shows these days.
Thank you for all that you have done Mr. Rogers. You will always be remembered.
