No see, what we needed was MORE like him. Bob Ross and Fred Rogers were two persons making a world more pleasant just by being generally nice, and we needed the ratio a little higher than what we've been getting.

[@andypetranek8877]

We did deserve him… that’s why he was here… to give us permission to love ourselves… which we could so easily do in his presence (even on tv)

[@fhetty]

I actually shed a few tears watching this. Growing up, no matter how rough or scared I got, I always felt safe with Mr. Rogers. I'm almost 40 now and will always consider this man as one of my heroes. How this world desperately needs a Fred Rogers today.

[@ColombianaMama]

I’ve been sitting here thinking about my childhood, and how much he really helped me get through things . It was such a comforting the show

[@marvinthemaniac7698]

I still feel safe with him at 26 years old.

[@Ready-ForTheEnd]

Alot of people don't even like kids anymore. Will be hard to be find someone as passionate as Fred Roger's.

[@siobhanmulvey]

Safe - yes that’s the feeling he so exudes and safety is what so many children (and adults!) need to feel. He helps my nervous system feel safe and therefore calm💚

I was born in 2004, but they still showed reruns of this show when I was growing up. I’ll always look back on it with immense nostalgia. Thank you, Mr. Rogers

[@Commander_Appo]

Exactly me. I wish I could’ve been born in time to have the chance of meeting him

[@Fogblitz]

Same. I remember that this was one of my favorite shows on PBS when they would show reruns, and I often think about it and wish they would show it again.

[@creeper_playz5169]

I was born in 2005 and grew up with reruns of Mr Rogers. Mr Rogers' tree, castle, part of his living room set, trolley, some of his puppets, his shoes, and some of the clothes worn on his show are in the Heinz History Center in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. I went there earlier and it was an amazing blast from the past seeing all of his stuff

[@andrewboguszracing]

Same! I was born in 2006. Every day when I was little I watched PBS kids and they rarely ever played this as I aged. But once you saw that red house in the intro, you knew today was going to be a good day.

[@FajreroCintilo]

So happy they do reruns sometimes But they retired his page on the PBS website, so you have to pay to see certain episodes:(

[@westernmasspokemon]

I’m 33 years old and every time I hear this it brings me to tears

[@Pistol213rd]

20 years ago today we lost this wonderful man . R.I.P. Mr Rogers . We love you

[@JohnSulu14]

I'm sure Joe Negri will see him in a bit as he is turning 98 this year. However, I am hoping that David Newell and Betty Aberlin both live for a while making it to their 90s and even into the 2030s decade to keep the legacy of this TV show alive.

For those curious, the primary instrument behind the song's beautiful, dreamy, soothing opening sequence from 0:00-0:18 is a celesta. It's played with a piano keyboard but has metal bars over wooden resonators instead of strings. It's actually the same instrument heard in the Nutcracker's Sugar Plum Fairy. It has to be one of the most beautiful sounding instruments ever, and yes, that was Johnny Costa playing a real celesta live in the studio as was the rest of the music

Exactly. Until 1996, almost none of the background instrumentals were unedited. Johnny Costa and his trio played live and unedited in the studio as each episode was taped. Definitely a special aspect that makes a musician like myself only appreciate the show even deeper
