Finally, there's a new Mr. Rogers in town -- and he's a tiger

9/2/2012

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood again. After a long search – marked by unsatisfying try-outs and characters that weren't quite right -- "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" has finally found a new host. He comes in the form of "Daniel Striped Tiger," a cuddly, animated wildcat who, like his beloved predecessor, wears cardigan sweaters and will teach kids about honesty. Daniel's debut Monday on PBS will mark the return of the show after 12 years of reruns, sending the Internet abuzz with anticipation of O the Owl, Katerina Kittycat and their upcoming adventures in the Neighborhood of Make-Believe.
