"Reading Rainbow" is in financial trouble, apparently.

<a href="http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=s ... ow_2">Read it</a>.

I'll be damn sad if it goes off the air. "Reading Rainbow" was one of the bright spots in life, growing up, and do think it had a valuable impact on me.

Hopefully there'll be some way to donate, as was suggested in a Fark thread about the article I linked.
I'm out...

Think about what it would be like if those shows were never created.

...scary...

Despite how cheezy and happy-go-lucky all of those shows seem to us now, we all pretty much loved them when we were younger. Shows like those encourage children to develop a healthy childhood. I don't want to know what it'd be like if the children were to grow up watching ANIME of all things...such a horrid, horrid form of entertainment... :P

Oh yeah...and I'm deeply hurt by this bit of news.

Reading Rainbow was pretty cool. I was a bit old to be within its "target audience" range when it first came on TV, but I still remember watching it. It had some funny stuff on it. :wink:
