Fred Rogers Productions' 'Donkey Hodie' renewed for second season on PBS Kids

PITTSBURGH — Kids are going to have more hee-hawesome adventures coming their way this time next year.

"Donkey Hodie," a children's show developed by Pittsburgh-based Fred Rogers Productions that premiered in May 2021, was officially renewed for a second season on PBS Kids, according to an FRP news release. The series chronicles the kid-friendly exploits of the titular yellow donkey, who is the granddaughter of original "Mister Rogers Neighborhood" character Donkey Hodie.

The show is a collaboration between Fred Rogers Productions and Spiffy Pictures, which was co-founded by brothers Adam and David Rudman. It takes place in the land of Someplace Else — part of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood of Make-Believe — and features a cast of colorful puppets that includes Donkey, Purple Panda, Duck Duck, Bob Dog and Clyde the Cloud.
