The low-key, low-tech "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" presented Rogers as one adult in a busy world who always had time to listen to children. Homage to Rogers is baked into "Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood," which features children of characters from "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood," including Prince Wednesday, the child of King Friday XIII, and Katerina Kittycat, the daughter of Henrietta Pussycat. PBS stations around the country still air "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" and some can be found on the PBS Kids video app. Postal Service will unveil a new stamp featuring Rogers on March 23 in the same Pittsburgh TV station where "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" was produced. Gicker was born the year the show went national and grew up watching "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood."
