Former teen actor and anti-LGBTQ+ Christian author Kirk Cameron has announced a new biblically-centered children’s show to combat “woke” Hollywood programming.

Adventures of Iggy and Mr. Kirk is being billed by conservatives as a modern-day Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood with a Christian twist. Cameron has claimed parents are desperate for something that teaches “wholesome values and morals,” which apparently means denigrating LGBTQ+ people.

“If you watch many of Hollywood’s kids shows, you would think that parents want woke instructions for their kids,” Cameron told Fox News Digital at the Green Carpet Premiere of the show. “But the reality is they don’t. They’re not looking for gay dinosaurs and trans ducks to teach their children morality.”

Cameron also added his belief that the results of the 2024 presidential election signal that the American people want to end “wokeness.”

“There was this wonderful aspect of the last four years, brought to attention where we go when we abandon good, wholesome, American constitutional values,” he said. “And this has served as a wake-up call for parents and families all over the nation who not only voted, but they’re also looking for an opportunity to lean in to a solution and actually participate by training their kids, and raising them up in the way they should go.”

Cameron has long positioned himself as an anti-LGBTQ+ activist. He made headlines in 2012 for anti-LGBTQ+ comments he made on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight. “I think that it’s unnatural,” he said. “I think that it’s detrimental and ultimately destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization.”

He has also published multiple children’s books with Brave Books, a publisher of “conservative children’s books” which has described itself as “the antidote to woke culture lies.”

In 2022, Cameron spoke out against public libraries for hosting LGBTQ+ programs but not his events after claiming that more than 50 rejected his offer to host children’s story time.

“Publicly funded libraries are green-lighting ‘gender marker and name change clinics’ while denying a story time that would involve the reading of a book that teaches biblical wisdom. How much more clear can it get?” he said. “We have to start fighting back, or we will lose our kids and this country.”

He also raged that “Bibles are literally being removed from schools and libraries” while being “replaced with toxic ideas like transgenderism, CRT [Critical Race Theory], and the 1619 Project.”
