It's a beautiful day in Twitch's neighborhood. The online streamer is launching an 18-day marathon of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, the classic PBS series, in an effort to raise funding for public broadcasting.
Beginning Monday, May 15th, at 12 p.m. PT/3 p.m. ET, Twitch will kick off their celebration of Fred Rogers, his friends and the Neighborhood of Make-Believe. It won't just be Mr. McFeely, King Friday XIII, Daniel Tiger and Henrietta Pussycat viewers will get reacquainted with, though. Throughout its 31 seasons, Mister Rogers Neighborhood welcomes a plethora of guests, ranging from musicians, to actors, to people from various communities helping to show Mister Rogers and his TV friends how to live better lives.
In case you are unable to watch all 18 days of the marathon in their entirety, IGN has you covered.

After all, he even visits the set of The Incredible Hulk to watch Lou Ferrigno get painted green. Who doesn't want to watch that?
Following the success of the Bob Ross’ The Joy of Painting marathon in 2015, Twitch is listening to the positive community feedback and is now looking to run more non-gaming content. All 886 episodes of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood will be streamed live at http://ift.tt/2pCYvcO. The marathon will feature episodes that only aired once and aren't available online anywhere else, with additional mini-marathons to follow.
