Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood [0] is directly based on the character by the same name from Mister Rogers' Neighborhood.'
Daniel Tiger is one of the very, very few TV shows we let our daughter watch, and it teaches emotional regulation so incredibly well and has plenty of tunes that I've caught her singing to herself, such as "it's okay to feel sad sometimes, little by little, you'll feel better again"
I'm in Australia and never grew up watching Mr Rogers, but after seeing the "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood" movie I recognised the tunes and then spent an inordinate amount of time looking into the origins.
I had a similar revelation after watching a few episodes with my daughter! Wait a minute, that intro song sounds familiar... and the names of the characters sound kind of familiar...
