Reading Rainbow: Bored: Nothing to Do!

Focusing on planes in this episode, LeVar takes a flying lesson and flies a plane himself. Also included: the activities of a top-notch airline in flight, as well as a look at the people who made the dream of flying come true, like Amelia Earhart and Charles Lindburgh. Alex Borg and David Hyman read the story of two boys who decide to build their own airplane, using household items, after their mother sends them outside to play when they complain of being bored.

I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS IN KINDERGARTEN it also scared me a little sometimes

The ending would've been better if the boys' mom (or dad) said something like, "Building an airplane--that is _not_ what I meant, boys."

One Funny Book!

@KodyBoy555 I know. It's just that they redubbed it WAY too early in this episode. They should have waited for LeVar to say his closing speech, THEN redub the new theme over the old one.

I always loved the music playing from 11:19-14:48

Ugh! Such awful editing at 26:11! Because this show originally only had one audio track (sound effects, dialogue, and music all married to each other), they had to mute LeVar's closing speech with this awful new theme!
