Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood: “Conflict” In November 1983—right smack in the middle of that whole Cold War thing—the show aired a weeklong arc in which, through a series of misunderstandings, King Friday and Corny the Beaver stockpile enough nuclear weapons to ensure their mutual destruction. These episodes haven’t been aired since 1996. It’s to Mister Rogers’ credit that he intended this storyline as a sobering life lesson for the little world leaders of tomorrow, but still: too real.

Wait, what?

The only thing I hate about being born in the late 80's is that I missed out on watching all the great movies and tv programs when the Cold War threat was real. Watching Red Dawn must have been badass.
