Mr. Rogers Movie.

Hey there, Bill.

I'm writing to you here from Minneapolis and very much looking forward to your upcoming show here.

You know, back when I was a kid, you know, getting treated like shit motivated you to get a better job.

Not demand that you fucking be treated with respect at the low level that you had attained in the job world.

Anyway, I was wondering if you heard about the movie being made about Mr. Rogers starring Tom Hanks as Fred Rogers.

Coincidentally, a movie trailer was also just released for a new documentary about Fred Rogers that just premiered at Sundance, and it looks awesome.

I grew up watching Mr. Rogers as a kid, and it's really refreshing to look back at some of the clips that show what a great, one-of-a-kind person he was.

Did you grow up watching Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood?

Yes, I did, Mr. McFeely.

Speedy delivery.

And if so, what were your thoughts about them making a movie about him?

Maybe you have a different perspective now that you have a kid because it seems like there's so much awful shit that kids are exposed to on TV and the Internet.

And Mr. Rogers was a rare TV show which actually helps kids to become better human beings.

Last but not least, would you consider auditioning for the show's longtime guest guest?

Mr. McFeely, I think you'd look hilarious in that mailman hat with the spectacles and the mustache.

Thanks for being a great neighbor and go fuck yourself.

I absolutely would play Mr. McFeely.

I loved Mr. Rogers when I was a kid.

I liked Sesame Street better.
