Celebrate Fred Rogers’ 90th birthday on Twitch

Bust out your cardigans, grab your trolley ticket, and fire up your imagination, because Twitch is heading back to the land of make believe.

To celebrate Mister Rogers’ 90th birthday and the 50th anniversary of the debut of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, we’re streaming a very special Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood marathon, and we’ve invited a bunch of Partners to co-stream the celebration with us. On March 20th at 10am PT, join us on /misterrogers, or your favorite streamer’s co-stream, as we watch 90 of the most popular episodes of the show followed by a complete run through the show’s entire history…all 856 episodes. For several weeks we’ll make the journey from black and white to color, we’ll laugh, we’ll cry, and we’ll learn to love each other and ourselves. Mister Rogers would want it that way.

A marathon of this magnitude requires a host of similarly epic proportions, so none-other than Futuremangaming will be your emcee throughout the run. He’ll be dropping in at various times so share his Mister Rogers memories. Co-streaming is also enabled for everyone, so all you streamers out there should feel free to co-stream from your neighborhoods. Here’s how you do it: Once the marathon kicks off, all you have to do is set your game to “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” capture the stream on twitch.tv/misterrogers, and you’re good to go.

Here’s a list of Partners who will be co-streaming and when:

Tuesday, March 20

Wednesday, March 21

Thursday, March 22

The celebration begins on March 20 at 10am PT. We can’t wait to cozy up with everyone in chat.
