    Did you ever watch Reading Rainbow? His videos were pretty good. If you didn't watch as a kid it is easy to cynical, but it is a good show.

    Yeah, I didn't remember him calling them that, I figured it was a new-age thing.

    But you don't have to take my word for it.

    I really think reading rainbow online videos could be great. They could finally go uncensored, I wanna see him read playboys online. That'd be great.

    Kind of sucks this show got canceled. I don't know what they put on PBS,but this shouldn't have been very expensive to make.
