jeesh. we were babysitting my g/f's neice the other day and I watched it for the first time in like 20 years... was still the same. Hope he died in his sleep. :(

That sucks. I watched him every day when I was a kid. :(

im sure they have GFY in heaven so Mr. Rogers if you read this you should know you will be missed.

Admit it, you're pissed because someone else posted the news before you! :1orglaugh

I killed him.

Kinda

i'm from pittsburgh, i grew up on mr rogers. that's sad. he was a really good guy.

who names their kid joyce? :1orglaugh

You are without a doubt the biggest jerkoff on the board. I know you get off on irritating people, but it's getting old. I wonder if you will ever have the balls to make an appearance at a US convention?

Of course he's an American

That sucks. I grew up with the guy. He taught me how to make puppets out of empty water jugs!

I wonder if Mr. McFeeley is still around?

I'm sad, but glad that he was able to bring so much joy to so many lives. I grew up with him. He was like a friend.

Rest in peace, Fred Rogers - I'm glad I (kinda sorta) knew ya.

he's dead?

:eek7


i thought he was gay.....?

but i heard he used to molest kids n stuff.. was i misinformed?

me too.

no, that's Mr. Jackson.

It's sad to see Fred go. I was just thinking the other day about all those PBS shows I watched growing up. It's crazy how long ago some that was.

I think he is...

Rogers died at his Pittsburgh home, said family spokesman David Newell, who played Mr. McFeely on the show.

Mr. McFeeley- With a name like that... that's someone i wouldnt want around children

RIP

He was one of the good guys.

Yep he will be missed, a great fellow.

DH

too many good jokes could go here but Mr. Rogers was an icon so i'll pass.

the amazing thing about Mr. Rogers was that supposedly he was EXACTLY like that in real life, it wasn't an act.

sad, Charles Schultz gone, Mr. Rogers............. next thing you'll be telling me is that Jim Henson is dead!

If anybody has ever heard any of the National Lampoon comedy albums from the 70's there is a classic bit on one of them where Mr. Rogers gets a visit on his show by a stoned black jazz bass player. Real funny.

Maybe it's on Kazaa?

That's sad, he was a good man.
Oz

Umm.. Jim Henson has been dead for a while.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!


Mr. Greenjeans too? And the Captain? Bob from Sesame Street?
Black guy from Electric Company?

It's a friggin holocaust.

No, Jim Henson IS ALIVE!!!!!!

He died 13 years ago:

Whatever, I suppose you're going to try to tell me that Elvis is dead too?

lol. okay, I fell for it. :)

Heh, sarcasm is sometimes hard to detect. It's not easy being green. :winkwink:

That rumor was started by the christian right in the 80's because they thought he was evil.

I can't believe some of you ignorant
fools saying such stupid things about
the loss of a human life. You show us
all what losers you truly are. The world
is in such a mess, can't you please be
a bit more sensitive?

<B>We miss you Mr Rogers!</B>

Cherry

wha? what was said. lol.
this is gfy, of coures theres gonna be some sarcastic comments made.

your sig is absurd

At least he will live on in reruns :)

Rest In Peace Mr. Rogers, wonder if they let him wear his sneakers with his angel gown?

Yea same here use to watch him i wanna say he was on just before or after romper room, land of the lost, flipper and gentle ben....
\


I wonder if i can get the train set now?

Not to be rude, but are you a real person or some male user's fake account that he uses to cause trouble on GFY?

R.I.P. Mr. Rogers.

can you say dead?

sure you can...dead

that really is so sad..I'll actually shed a small tear over that one. Atleast his battle was brief. No one over here has a clue who he is...so when I looked all shocked and went 'Mr Roger's died' they all had a blank look. Heathens.

he taught many of us to use our imaginations.

Mr Rodgers was Boneprone Approved.
Kinda sad.

But his shows will run forever.
Something I hope my children watch when they grow up as I did.

He was a strange fellow.
But a good guy none the less. Im sure he had my sites bookmarked.

The people at the SuperBowl must have known he was dying.
I thought it was strange to see him as the honorary host of the super bowl last month doing the coin toss.

FUCK, MR ROGERS WAS CHILL.

Watched that every day. I agree w/ bone, he was a strange man, any man with such a facination for children kinda freaks me out.

But just the same, when i was young and innocent, he was the BEST

That sucks :(

btw, Jim Henson died on the same day as Sammy Davis jr. I remember because by some strange conincidence my piano lesson that week was 'rainbow connection'

well he was a pastor and the show was his congregation. So, he was talking to kids the way a preacher would.

R.I.P.

That show drove me to the isane asylum.

sad :(

As someone else said hopefully his death was sudden and painless.

Poor guy died from stomach cancer. I named my fish after him :( he'll surely be missed but not forgotten
