  5. I am surprised how sad I am considering that I thought Reading rainbow had been cancelled years ago.

  7. Shit, I had no idea Reading Rainbow was even still on the air! Just like the song says, you don’t know what you’ve got ’til it’s gone. I’ll miss you, LeVar, but…don’t take MY word for it!
