AMEN!!!! Our local PBS station GPB in Atlanta went to one day a week about 6-7 years ago. Several years ago they discontinued even the weekly airing of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. At that time it was airing daily on PBSkids on Direct TV. About 3-4 years ago PBSKids became Sprout and Mister Rogers was gone forever from the homes in the Atlanta area. My children are 13, 10 and 17 mos. As I am writing this all three of them are watching one of Mister Rogers DVD's. They will never outgrow Mister Rogers Neighborhood (and neither will I). It was the only show they wanted to watch everyday! My older children and I watched this show faithfully when it aired. I grew up watching this show everyday (Mister Rogers was a father figure to me). His kind and loving personality gave me stability that every child needs. I contacted my local GPB PBS station several years ago and never received a response. I contacted head of programming a year ago by phone and was told viewer ratings were not good for the show. I was told to contact a local school teacher and ask them to record it for me. Are you kidding me? I am feeling saddened by the actions of these politically correct people. I am even somewhat angry! PBS can thank Mister Rogers I was a regular viewer of the show before they denied us the privilege of viewing one of the most influential programs of all time. How else would I know what to do with the mad that I feel? "What do you do with the mad that you feel When you feel so mad you could bite? When the whole wide world seems oh, so wrong..." Without Mister Rogers on daily PBS Mon- Fri. the whole wide world will be wrong! I am so thankful to find other likeminded people who see the value in Mister Rogers and his timeless message for all children and even adults! What will I do with the mad that I feel at this injustice? I will write another letter to my local PBS station and to my elected officials. Let us all take action!
