I’m sad to report that today marked the last day that PBS would air episodes of Reading Rainbow, a television program for children that I watched fondly as a kid. For those who have never seen it, Reading Rainbow was a wonderful show that helped foster an interest in reading with young people. The show was hosted by LeVar Burton and is the 3rd longest running show to ever air on PBS (after Sesame Street and Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, two equally fantastic shows).

Part 1
Emily tells me that the 1966 Walt Disney featurette, Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree, is fully available for viewing online (via YouTube). If you haven’t seen it, you can check out the entire featurette here — it’s separated into 3 parts.

Bill O’Reilly hates David after the dentist
June 7, 2009 @ 5:33 am
This is incredible. How in the world did Bill O’Reilly find the viral video “David after the dentist” offensive enough to badmouth it on his show?
David after the dentist is probably one of the most innocent, wholesome, and genuinely funny videos on the internet and yet Bill O’Reilly found reason to hate it. That’s insane. Absolutely insane.
Saturday Morning Cartoons!

HAHA, right?
I feel like there should be a voice over saying “Coming up next…It’s Your The God Of This City at 8, followed by You’re The King Of These People at 9, and finally You’re The Lord Of This Nation at 10. And then stay tuned for the network premiere of You’re The Light In This Darkness after the 11 o’clock news!”
Nurse Jackie on Showtime
May 24, 2009 @ 11:15 pm
Edie Falco, the woman who played the wife of Tony Soprano on The Sopranos, is back with a brand-new television series on Showtime called Nurse Jackie which debuts on Monday, June 8, 2009 @ 10:30PM EST. In the show, Edie plays a Nurse named Jackie who dances around lots of red tape at a hospital she works at in New York City. It sounds pretty interesting and the preview above certainly makes me want to tune in to see what the show is about.
But a part of me is probably just excited for me to see Edie Falco back on TV again in a major role. She’s been on TV since The Sopranos, but I can’t remember any role she’s had since that was nearly as big. This should be good.
