    I'm not opposed to weird at all. It's great that he shows glass blowers and so on. I have fond memories of that. I'm more specifically talking about stuff that can't happen, like the fairy muppet casting magic spells in modern Sesame Street. There's nothing a kid can relate to there, it's just in there because kids like magic. Better would be a muppet master of illusion, since stage magician is something a kid could actually one day do.

    The thing about the lesson to not be bad and be good or a lesson to improve yourself is it works at every age level. Thing is, there's lots of kids out there in bad situations, and Mr. Rogers did speak to them. Rogers did seem to try to be teaching kids not to pick on their peers just because they were different. That's good, and I like that. It's just that, well, you know, inconsistent rules can come back to bite you. We've got a LOT of adults today who don't care who they hurt because that's just who they are and we should just totally accept that. I'm not really "blaming" Rogers here, but frankly that lesson really is flawed, and it really should be refined.

    Edit: Do you think they'll put Twitch on the Switch?
