Who hosted the 50th-anniversary tribute Mister Rogers: It's You I Like?

Michael Keaton hosted the 50th-anniversary tribute special Mister Rogers: It's You I Like. The PBS program celebrated the national debut of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood five decades earlier and brought together celebrities, musicians, colleagues, and family members to remember Fred Rogers.

The special premiered nationally on PBS stations on March 6, 2018. It included archival clips and interviews with figures such as Yo-Yo Ma, Whoopi Goldberg, John Lithgow, Judd Apatow, Sarah Silverman, and Joanne Rogers. The program was both a retrospective and a personal tribute to the values of Rogers' television work.

Keaton was a particularly fitting host because his connection to the show went beyond celebrity. Before becoming a major film star, he worked behind the scenes on Mister Rogers' Neighborhood as a stagehand. He also appeared on the program in the 1970s, including a comic appearance as one of the Flying Zookeeni Brothers.

The title comes from “It's You I Like,” one of Rogers' best-known songs. The song originally appeared in the television series and became closely associated with its message of unconditional self-worth.
