Episode Ident: Mr. Rogers Shows His 'House' Is Really TV Stage

Hello,

I wanted to find out the episode in which Mister Rogers explains that his "house" is really just a television show stage.

I remember the camera begins backing away from Mr. Rogers and his "house" and Mr. Rogers walks over to the left of the screen, past his door, towards the piano. He then walks down a couple of steps which lead off the set!

We are then given a tour of the stage and the people behind the scenes.

Anyone know the episode information on this?

Thanks!

It's actually shown twice. Once, during the Friday show of "Work" (#1530) and again in the Monday show of "Music" (#1546). And during the week of "Transformations", Wednesday or Thursday's show, we see a video on how the set is put together.

During the week of "Superheroes", Tuesday or Wednesday show, he shows us the full model layout for the model buildings we see at the beginning and end of each show.
