  • Trivia

    • In this episode, Fred Rogers introduces his viewers to his "Mister Rogers Neighborhood" web site, which is still active and looks much the same more than a decade later.

    • In all past programs, the song for Henrietta Pussycat opened with the lyrics "You are pretty/You are black" (See Quotes). But in this, the last time anyone performs the song, Mayor Maggie tried to be more politically correct. She told Henrietta, "You are gray."

  • Quotes

    • The original lyrics of the song for Henrietta Pussycat are as follows:
      You are pretty
      You are black
      You are beautifully dressed
      In lovely fur
      Finely curled
      Perfectly, you are pretty
      Elegant, you are black.

  • Notes

    • This was the only time in the modern series that Fred Rogers ran a "Funny Fast Film" on Picture-Picture. Of course, this sped-up film of Mr. McFeely mowing a lawn, was shot a long time ago.
