Premise[link]

The series will center around a four-year-old Daniel Tiger, son of the original "Daniel Striped Tiger" on Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. The series will also feature other children of the (now grown-up) characters from the Neighborhood of Make-Believe. Two 11-minute episodes are linked by a common socio-emotional theme (such as disappointment or anger). The series will be co-produced by The Fred Rogers Company (formerly Family Communications) and Out of the Blue Enterprises, with animation produced in Canada by 9 Story Entertainment.^[2][3]
