The Neighborhood Archive has already covered the Celebrating Mister Rogers category from February 2018, but there have also been many individual clues over the years.   This is what I could find from J! Archive.   

Of note, there are two episodes that mention when the show debuted "on PBS".   One gives the date of 1970, which we know is not the show's actual premiere date, but it *is* technically when it would have first aired on PBS as opposed to NET.   Then a later episode gives the correct series premiere date of 1968, but still says it was on PBS.

Those nitpicks aside, I'm quite pleasantly surprised that there was a Donkey Hodie question.
