I couldn’t even watch Mr. Rogers, though the kids loved it, and palmed that atrocity off to my wife Melissa. Pictued is a young @nickyotissmith; I also hated "Sesame Street." @EminaMelonic, @MoustacheClubUS, @K1NSS.https://www.splicetoday.com/writing/pictures-of-you-117#.XOqqaQu0TRI.twitter …

Even as a kid, I never cared much for "Mr. Rogers." "Sesame Street" was good when it was about Muppets, not so good otherwise. The PBS show I loved was "The Electric Company."

I thought Mr. Rogers was scary because the world he inhabited was so clearly phony. At least the world of Captain Kangaroo admitted the possibility of inexplicable and irrational hostility--all those ping-pong balls.

I loved the Captain. You couldn't beat an exasperated, "Bunny Rabbit, you leave those carrots alone."
