There's a couple of things about it, I was reading Levars AMA yesterday.I'm surprised people still care this much about Reading Rainbow, I mean it's neat and all but doesn't the novelty of a black person who can read eventually wear off
It's not nostalgia they just don't make shows like that anymore. All these care bear shows today can't compare with Geordi's visionThere's a couple of things about it, I was reading Levars AMA yesterday.
That program does serve a function. I have the feeling that he's getting significant contribution from 20-somethings nostalgia (at 1-20 bucks a pop -- which is great and he's doing it exactly right in that regard... "even a dollar is enough") and he's also getting solid interest from professional education.
He also dodged most of the business model specific questions and stuck to broad subjects. Which I don't blame him for a great deal actually. I doubt he has total control over those aspects. It would be dishonest of him to promise specifics.
Trolling his kickstarter is amazingly scumfucky. He's trying to do a good thing. Stop being shitheads, Bradco. It's all good fun when you do it on your own board and hobby boards. Leave it there.
I think you missed the joke. That, or you continued it and I missed that.I think there's definitely a big enough market for reading rainbow. Don't tell me what I do and do not like thanks la.
That's what I get for reading from the bottom up.I think you missed me continuing the joke. Well played :-/
Oh I agree. It's just a lot of those reddit posts were almost word for word, "I loved Reading Rainbow! Have ten bucks! I wish I had more!" And there were a lot of childhood testimonials. It is quite possible that I misinterpret that. But I mean it's not always bad to tap into that.It's not nostalgia they just don't make shows like that anymore. All these care bear shows today can't compare with Geordi's vision
This has become an unofficial 'Hey, this other Kickstarter looks interesting... compared to BRAD WHO IS THE DEVIL" thread.What the fuck is going on in this thread still?
lol...well doneAs fast as that Reading Rainbow fund total is moving you would think they were selling spaceships.
"Let's raise a happy little zombie over here.... and so he isnt lonely, let's raise another one right next to him...."I'd pledge to return Bob Ross as a lich
If Geordi's vision is *so* great, how come he needed a visor???It's not nostalgia they just don't make shows like that anymore. All these care bear shows today can't compare with Geordi's vision
