UPDATE: Kickstarter Campaign To Revive "Reading Rainbow" Hits $1M Goal Within Hours of Launch
by LISA DE MORAES, TV Columnist May 28, 2014 Hours after its launch this morning, a Kickstarter campaign launched by LeVar Burton to bring back "Reading Rainbow" as a web series hit its goal of raising $1 million dollars. The campaign had set a deadline of Wednesday, July 2 to raise the cash, using incentives that range from offers of "Reading Rainbow" mugs and calendars, to passes to the Star Trek Convention in Las Vegas in July, to (for $10K) a private dinner with Burton at which you could wear the “one-and-only original visor” he wore when he played Geordi La Forge on "Star Trek: The Next Generation". “Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that we would reach our goal on the very first day,” Burton told Deadline. “People are getting involved — it’s been pretty overwhelming.” http://www.deadline.com/2014/05/kick...-launch-video/ |
