One response to “Reading Rainbow”
Reading Rainbow must hold the record for current series airing the oldest repeats - if that's such a thing. I caught one last year from 1984, and they still show the "behind the scenes from Star Trek: The Next Generation" episode (which was from the late '80s) in regular rotation.
