I grew up watching "Mister Roger's Neighborhood" and I know without a doubt that the show shaped me as a person. Probably more so than any other show on TV. I still remember all the songs and lyrics, over twenty years later. I watched this documentary and cried multiple times. Because no one cares in the same way Fred Rogers did. What an amazing human being--so brave and determined to help children and our world. It is deeply moving to hear the words he said and sang.

1950s, Mystery, Religion, Complex Relationships

What a brilliant show--Robson Green and James Norton have perfect chemistry and both create memorable and lovable characters. If you like shows with tension and inner conflict, this is definitely the one for you. Each mystery/case ties together perfectly with whatever drama/turmoil the townsfolk and their vicar are dealing with. Excellent writing. Can't wait to see the fourth season.
