Reading Rainbow R.I.P. featuring Run DMC

August 28th, 2009

It’s official kids, after 26 years on the air, Reading Rainbow is being canceled due to a “shift in the philosophy of educational television programming.” Aparently, while the show got me stoked to hit the book-mobile every week it did not each me when to use “its” versus “it’s” (a skill I, sadly, still have not mastered.) There’s more on that here but the news reminded me of this fond childhood memory of Run DMC kickin’ rhymes about getting to sleep on time and reading books… a perfect example of why this was an awesome show.
