Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood (lost pitch pilot of PBS Kids animated musical series; 2006-2008)
Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood is a children's animated series on PBS. It is produced by Fred Rogers Productions and is based on characters from the original Mister Rogers' Neighborhood series. A pilot for the series was created around 2006-2008 and was pitched to PBS to major success. [1]
Development and Pilot
According to the creator of the series (Angela Santomero), Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood was first conceived in a meeting during 2006 by The Fred Rogers Company about making a show to continue the legacy of Fred Rogers. [2] Daniel Tiger was chosen as the main character without much question, as it was the first puppet created for the original show. A pilot animatic was soon completed and shown to PBS to be greenlit. [3]
Availability
As of now, the pilot is lost and not much from it has been released to the public.
