    The kings of PBS are calling for your support. Who will reign supreme? Everyone's neighbor versus the connoisseur of happy little accidents. Two men enter, one man leaves.

    I enjoyed the hell out of Bob Ross and his relaxed on screen persona, but he was mainly a dude trying to sell art supplies.

    Mr. Rogers was 100% that guy and believed he was doing something important.

    Wasn’t Mr Rogers an ex-green beret with full sleeved tattoos?

    I read/heard somewhere that Bob Ross was kind of a dick in real life.

    Easy Reader.

    I think Bob Ross was a drill inatructor and was never deployed overseas.

    However you want to judge it. Celebrity deathmatch. Who would you want to have a beer/smoke a joint with? Better show? Could be anything.

    I'm pretty sure the whole green beret Mr. Rogers thing was internet hogwash. But the guy was an amazing in front of the cameras and behind. That documentary on him a couple years ago was amazing and made me really respect the guy on a whole new level.

    Bob Ross was relaxing and he helped me put my kid to sleep a few times, but he will never be on the level of Mr. Rogers.
