Default Mr. Rogers scandal (spoiler: no scandal)

I never watched this show in New Zealand, but he seems like a great guy. Does that probably mean that we're going to find out that he is a monster?

I cry every time...just that last line, I don't know what it is about it. "and a boy may someday become a man". Like he has faith that is a good thing. Because he's a man, and he is a good thing. I dunno. I tear up.

Honestly, that's what he would always rant and rave about. My mom would always be like "now how could you possibly know that?" and my dad would be all "LOOK AT HIM! WHAT KIND OF MAN WOULD WANNA ACT LIKE THIS"

In hindsight, watching clips now, the guy does seem like a pretty big weirdo. Of course that would have nothing to do with being gay or not being gay, but he seems like a pretty creepy man.

no he doesn't. he just spends 90% of his time talking to children and has adapted mannerisms to not intimidate them

Morgan Freeman actually harassing people is almost as disappointing as if this were true.

Quote:
In one incident, she said, Freeman "kept trying to lift up my skirt and asking if I was wearing underwear." He never successfully lifted her skirt, she said
Homegirls so prepared for Freeman's creepin' that they wearing lead skirts.
