There Goes the Neighborhood!

“you can dis him all you want (not that you were Violin), but, as one time watcher (back in the beginning) and the father of a 3 yr old and a 6 yr old . . .Rogers is the best thing on TV for kids.

Barney, teletbubbies, dragontales, arthur et al suck. They are to good educational TV what MacDonald's is to food. ANd i have strong feelings about parent who allow their children too much of either (crap TV or crap food).”

“newgirl's back, what?

ooooohhhh!

*the statement above does not represent or imply any opinions held by lyra. however, somebody had to say it. kekekekeke!”

“but seriously now folks, Mr. Rogers rocked! he was a close second, behind Sesame Street, with Lily Tomlin in the big rocking chair. i wish they'd play the old classic Sesame Streets, i do, i do!”

“lyra -

Though I wanted to pay tribute to someone who contributed greatly to society (I really mean it) you correctly divined my double entendre.”

“Job opening fer ya, bacpac. Put them cardigans to good use.”

“aww, shucks...”

“As a matter of fact, newgirl is back.”

“And Fred Rogers is quitting.”

“Coincidence?”

“LMFAO”

“What I want to know is... Who played that kick-a$$ jazz piano?

Kids need more jazz!

Thanks for the fish quote, V. I'll put it to good use.”

“Mr.Rogers' rocked!

I always say "Speedy Delivery Speedy Delivery", like the postman Mr.McFeeley, when giving someone their mail at work.”

“Did ya know Fred did all the puppets' voices too? How could anyone ever replace him? PBS will still play reruns.”

“Never could watch mr. Rogers, but I do watch "Arnold", "The Wild Thornberry's" and "Rocket Power" on Nick with my 6 y/o.”

“It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day in the neighborhood.
Would you be mine? Could you be mine?
I have always wanted to have a neighbor, just like you. A friend to live in the neighborhood, soooo...
Let's make the most of this beautiful day.
As long as we're here, we might as well say,
Would be mine?
Could you be mine?
Won't you be my neighbor. Pleeeease won't you be my neighbor.





Hi, neighbor.”

“"I believe that those of us who are the producers and purveyors of television -- or video games or newspapers or any mass media -- I believe that we are the servants of this nation,"

"I got into television because I hated it so, and I thought there was some way of using this fabulous instrument to be of nurture to those who would watch and listen."

-Mr. Rogers”

“Come on you guys . . . I posted about this very subject (after watching his interview on Nightline) and shared the exact thoughts on it quite some time ago. Search the threads.”

“Now don't be a whiner like Stevehiker.”

“aaaahhh...irony so thick, you could cut it with a knife...”

“But newgirl. Yours was a little different.”

“Did I say welcome back yet?

No? - I was making sure you were really hanging around.

Well, I'm glad to hear from you, dude.

























Just kidding!

Welcome back!!!”

“By the way, today is the day that the last new 'Mr. Roger's Neighborhood' aired.”

“OMG!! Kleety did kick sand in my face and I missed it!

I guess it pays to read all the threads.

Welcome back, Kleety!”

“I agree with Pathman. My kids and I enjoy The Wild Thornberries, Arthur and As Told By Ginger. Some Rocket Power. My kids never enjoyed Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. I hated those castle puppets!”

“Mr. Rogers. the last male TV role model for America.

Where do we go from here?”

“It's such a good feeling to know you're alive,

It's such a happy feeling to know you're alive,”

“Nigal is alive?

Who knew?”

“Wow,..where`ve you been hiding Nigal?”

“OHIO! Geez, doesn't anyone read what I post?!”

“OHIO! Geez, doesn't anyone read what I post?!”

“I was hanging out on the D!CK thread . Or was that the other way around...my d!ck was hanging out on the thread? Who can tell?”
