I have a playlist of Fred Rogers videos including an AMAZING 4.5 hour interview that covers everything you could ever want to know about him: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1eNhoNMQfyH0OCAwcixA...


Hey, thanks a ton. I'm only on the second video, and it already blows my mind how the man is even more the character than the character.


There’s a great clip out there of Levar Burton describing being invited to Roger’s set for the first time. He says he was impressed by the character, then by how Rogers stayed in character between takes, then he saw Fred speak with his wife and realized it wasn’t a character.


Part 4 of the interview is my favorite, but the entire thing is wonderful!
