Misterogers
The Wonder of It All -- a 2008 essay written by Kimmel and Collins and published by the Fred Rogers Center -- clearly details the years between the Children's Corner and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood:
When Rogers was about to graduate from the Seminary with a specific charge to minister to children and their families through television, the plan was to produce a television program for the Presbyterian Church, but money to support it wasn't available. And just at that moment Fred Rainsberry, head of children's programming for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, invited Rogers to Toronto to do a children's program -- 15 minutes with puppets and music. There was one stipulation, however: Rogers had to come out in front of the camera, talking directly to children. The first year the family was in Canada was for planning and preparation. In the second year in Canada, Misterogers began a year-long run with Rogers talking to viewers as well as the puppets.
Although the program was very successful in Canada, Rogers had to make a decision about staying in Canada or returning to the States. Joanne Rogers recalls that the decision also involved their visitor status -- to apply for citizenship or extend the visa -- and both decided to return to Pittsburgh. They wanted to be close to family, especially because their two sons were very young at the time.
Although he had no specific job, Rogers returned to Pittsburgh, continuing his lifelong dedication to child development studies. He worked with children at the Bellefield Presbyterian Church while waiting for WQED to secure funding for a children's program. By 1965, Rogers was planning and preparing for a Sunday afternoon program for WTAE, a commercial Pittsburgh television station, that ran from October through December 1965. It was also during this time that he began to identify people who ultimately would form the cast and crew of the Neighbohrood.
Eventually funding did become available and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood began its first run -- from October 1966 to May 1967 -- in the Pittsburgh area. In a second year, the Eastern Educational Network offered the Neighborhood a chance to broadcast in Boston, Washington, D.C., Chicago, New York, Miami, and San Francisco. But funding was still a problem and there were very real fears that the program would be cancelled. As part of its publicity efforts to boost the program, WGBH in Boston decided to hold an open house and prepared for some 500 guests -- a number they thought they would be fortunate to have. On the appointed day, WGBH was overwhelmed with more than 10,000 people -- more than attended the Red Sox game that same day. Shortly after that reception the Sears-Roebuck Foundation agreed to underwrite the Neighborhood.
On February 19, 1968, the first national broadcast of Mister Rogers' Neighbohrood -- funded by Sears -- went on national television.
