Before Jim Carrey shows us a sad Mister Rogers, here are the five best TV personalities who made our childhood awesome
Jim Carrey is back on TV with Showtime’s 'Kidding,' premiering on September 9. The legendary actor plays a man named Jeff who is better known as Mr. Pickles, and everybody knows the person he is portraying is 'Mister Rogers,' especially after the trailer aired. An official statement about the show reads that Mr. Pickles is “an icon of children’s television, a beacon of kindness and wisdom to America’s impressionable young minds and the parents who grew up with him — who also anchors a multimillion-dollar branding empire. But when Jeff’s family begins to implode, he finds no fairy tale or fable or puppet will guide him through the crisis, which advances faster than his means to cope.”
Here's a quick read on the five greatest children entertainers the world has ever witnessed, and we have to thank them for not only making us laugh and breed a sensible generation but also for aspiring to make the world a better place.
