Take a Look, It's in a Book
Sadly, news has come down that Reading Rainbows has been taken off the air. While new shows hadn't been developed in years, it's continued to run and entertained millions of kids. Unfortunately, a new corporate sponsor could not be found to pay for its renewal.LeVar Burton was Kunta Kinte and Mr. LaForge on Star Trek but every time I see him, I always think of Reading Rainbows and how we got to watch the show once a week in library class, then we got to go pick out books.
In a similar childhood remembrance, also sad to note was the death of Les Lye from You Can't Do That on Television. I can completely hear his voice saying "D'IIII heard that!"
