That guy always made my skin crawl as a kid. Maybe he was as nice as everyone claims, but when I was a kid, you'd have had to strap me down like Clockwork Orange to get me to watch that show.

Now i need to assure I watch the movie. Usually I am decades behind others watching movies already.

I didn't watch the video but I hope her comments were mostly harmless. Fred Rogers means a great deal to those of us who watched his program as children. He provided a great and valuable service for the benefit of an entire generation. Not sure if children today still enjoy his content but their parents would fo well to share it with them.

Joanne?? You mean Sarah?

Tom badly needs Jesus.

I own a whale tooth that was in mr rodgers collection

Does the movie show when he was a sniper?

That Emmy Awards Speech, where he asked everyone to think about for the moment, who all got them there. Still makes me tear up with the profundity of that gesture.

Is your name, Sarah or is it Joanne?

I can relate. I put Apollo 13 on repeat and watch it (sort of) days on end.

Lot of very "odd " stories about Hanks.... just saying.

Mr Rogers loves to rob casinos and get into kung-fu fights in back alleys just for kicks. He was the original inspiration for Charles Bronson in Death Wish. True story! It’s on the internet now, it’s now a fact!

What great interview questions ! Respectful, but engaging - allowing a unique perspective instead of the generic pablum so common these days.

Thank you public television for Mr. Rogers, The Electric Company, Sesame Street, and Zoom. ❤

You know Mr. Rogers did Forest gump impersonations?!

THis video is inproperly panned

Together in heaven

Look at that Dark hair and the Skin Irresistible looking

God he's Sexy @ Perfect @ A Plus.... yummy

flip your audio channels

My favorite anecdotes from her about Fred were two things: 1. He thought farts were hilarious and would bust ass by her at public functions to mess with her. Which just makes me like the guy even more 2. When he was dying, his last words were to ask if he was a ‘sheep’ (meaning was he a good Christian and going to heaven). She responded ‘if anyone is, it’s you’ 😢

I thought that movie was terrible. The documentary on Mr Rogers was much better.

Good interviewer. Mrs. Rogers was accomplished in her own right as a pianist.

Values are not defined by religion. Humans are born pure and religion screws everything up.

After he came back from his back to back scout sniper tours with the Marines in Vietnam, he always had a dark side that would creep out when you least expected it…..

Mr. Rogers actually was a wonderful human being !!!!

Religious values like believing someone will burn in hell for all eternity if they don’t believe what you believe. 🙄

Lol reminds of the phrase, "Don't call me sir, I work for a living!"

the only part she got wrong, was there was religious values religious values would be preaching hate, women as property, slavery is ok, murder, rape etc

RIP Heather's mom

Buttered the audio, way to go

fire the audio engineer.

lovely lady, she reminds me of him quite a bit.

Mr. Rogers was a Marxist agitprop

If Fred Rogers wasn't a saint, 1+1=8

Fred just did his best to be good. We can do that, too!

This is where Mr. Rogers and I would have disagreed. Tom Hanks always pretty much plays Tom Hanks. He is not the kind of actor skilled enough to remove all "self" and become almost completely the character. We always are aware it's Tom. Also, as his career progressed, along with accolades, you could sense a puffing up--although false humility seemed ever present--like it does with so many of these modern Hollywood movie stars. The story of Forrest Gump was a pretty good one, but Tom Hanks and Sally Field both couldn't completely let go of themselves to blind us to the production of it. That's what is so great about books! We don't have to "see" the split personalities. Mr. Rogers was a wonderful man and human being. He was not perfect. He wasn't always right, but was very good at understanding children. He is sorely missed in this world!

He may not have been a saint, but he was a great man

Forest Gump def wasn't that great What a nut

Years ago, I lived in Pittsburgh where I attended school. And the WNED network was just down the street, on Forbes Avenue. And I volunteered on the Mr. Rogers Neighbourhood show. The room was huge with a vast number of staff working on the program, even though the overall feeling of the space was intimate and cozy. And Mr. Rohers was always smiling, calm, collected and, above all, warm-hearted.

Tom Hanks is Hollyweird

May you rest together eternally

Joanne Rogers. A little known wonderful person. Happy to hear her and see her smile.

I love the little snort laugh she did

Don't you badmouth Mr Rogers! I'll frown at you.

He waa human! It was mostly a act...he was just another man

I really enjoyed that interview, what a lovely lady.❤

Too bad Tom hanks is a very disgusting human and I have no doubt this will be proven. Mr. Roger’s was someone I grew up watching thru the early and mid eighties and I’m very thankful for.

He was a Green Beret Snipe

I now want to write a short skit depicted a "BIG FIGHT" at the Rogers household and have it be the most civil, measured, wholesome, adult conversation about feelings possible. Like, I want "shucks" and "golly" to be the harshest words.
