The trailer for the upcoming “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” documentary “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” has just been released.
This documentary will include interviews of the people who were involved in the making of Mr Rogers Neighborhood. This show was different from any other show as it contained elements that most TV shows don’t even consider, Like child education and companionship, equality, and way of life.If you ask anyone today to make a TV show with these things the answer will be a hard no. But it worked at that time. Not only because Times were different but because of the overall soothing and easy personality of Mr Rogers who explained things and situations very clearly.
Most of the topics covered in the show were very serious of nature like death, divorce, and racism. Mr Rogers tried to educate people of all ages but especially children about these serious matters and told them that no matter what happens there is someone who cares. This little feeling helped so many children in the USA develop relationships in life who were otherwise lost or depressed.
Some people even say Mr Rogers is the one who laid the bedrock of today’s children mental care system. Mr Rogers understood that children just like grownups can go through trauma too. And he made this the aim of his life through his TV show that children everywhere accept themselves, with all their flaws and rise up in the world.
