Rogers' show had its earliest incarnation in 1954 as ''The Children's Corner'', a local program airing on station WQED in his native Pittsburgh. Rogers then took his talents to Canada in 1963 with a [[CBC]] TV program called ''Mister Rogers'', with Ernie Coombs as Rogers' understudy. After three years, Rogers decided to return to the U.S. while Coombs stayed to eventually became his boss' Canadian TV icon counterpart, ''[[Mr. Dressup (TV)|Mr. Dressup]]''. ''Mister Rogers' Neighborhood'' debuted on National Educational Television (NET) in 1968; two years later, NET became [[PBS]] and Rogers' show continued through 2001. The show would inspire an entire generation of children, and, alongside ''[[Sesame Street]]'' and ''[[Reading Rainbow]]'', anchored PBS' children's programming throughout the '80s and '90s. Reruns of the show are still broadcast occasionally, even after Rogers' death in 2003. |
