This. Is. Awesome.

From PBS:

Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood debuted in 1968 and aired on PBS for decades. Grounded in an innovative social-emotional curriculum, the show starred the legendary Fred Rogers, who spoke directly to viewers, performed songs, created arts and crafts for viewers, and took them on tours of real-life locations. Each episode ended with the same positive message for viewers: because we are all unique, we make each day special by being ourselves, and people can like us just the way we are.

Every episode, dating from the show’s premiere, will stream consecutively throughout the month of the marathon. There will be additional mini-marathons in the following weeks, giving viewers the opportunity to enjoy their favorite episodes once again.
