Talk:Mr. Hooper

McCarthy Era?
McCarthy had nothing to do with Hollywood blacklisting. That was tied in with the HUAC - House Un-American Activities Committee. McCarthy was a Senator. The Hollywood blacklisting was a reaction to Soviet operatives blackmailing people in Hollywood to make pro Soviet movies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.206.54.18 (talk) 10:19, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Spoiler
A spoiler warning? For Mr Hooper's death?
 * Y'know what, I was thinking the same thing. We all know he died. I'm gonna go ahead and remove it and see if anyone objects. 12.72.242.252 10:05, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
 * That is, I'm gonna go ahead and remove it. Cernen Xanthine Katrena 10:07, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I thought the idea was pretty funny :)

Can someone come up with a better picture? It's bad enough that, almost a quarter of a century later, I still miss the guy. But the picture currently on the site looks like it was taken from a blooper reel. Yes, I meant "blooper," not "Hooper"! -- Pacholeknbnj, 2:04 AM EDT, 19 April 2006

What happened do Damon, the "heir" of Mr. Hooper's Store from "I'll Miss You, Mr. Hooper"? And how is the present character, Allen, the owner?
 * That's David, and he was played by Northern Calloway, who left the show in 1989, a year before his death at age 41. He was diabetic, drug-addicted and bipolar. PatrickLMT 18:25, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

This article quotes a Mr. Roger's episode from the day after JFK's assassination, however, Mr. Rogers did not debut until 1970... There is NO way this is true. First, as pointed out, the show was not running in America until 1968, on NET. Second, more importantly, this was not a live broadcast, and there is no way they could have taped a show to air the next day after the assassination and got it out to every station. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.171.223.53 (talk) 14:57, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

maybe instead of JFK i needs to be RFK. I'm sure its probably in reference to MLK also. here's a least one reference i've found: http://www.writing.com/main/view_item/item_id/640812 Jcsavestheday (talk) 02:38, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

here is a reference that confirms that Mr. Rogers did deal with the aswsassination of Robert Kennedy in 1968. http://pbskids.org/rogers/parentsteachers/special/scarynews-thoughts.html Jcsavestheday (talk) 03:03, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

RIP Mr Looper, no wait, it's Cooper, oh, it's Hooper! -- S.C.Ruffey fan  18:06, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

from Germany?
I faintly remember a scene where people were saying where they had come from, and Mr Hooper said that he came to Germany from a boat. Anybody recall this? Kransky (talk) 12:57, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Repetitive
It seems to be that the entire introduction is basically repeated later in the article. Should we fix this? EdittingPrincess (talk) 18:16, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
