“Reading Rainbow” is back, yo! But sadly, LeVar Burton is not.
They’re going with a new, younger host by the name of Mychel Threets. . . although he’s going by his TikTok handle, Mychal the Librarian. He’s the resident librarian for PBS Kids . . . and yes, the show will air on PBS.
(For as long as PBS exists, anyway.)
And there will be celebrity guests, including Gabrielle Union, Adam DeVine, Chrissy Teigen, and John Legend.
There’s no word on an airdate. (Check out a preview clip here.)
The original “Reading Rainbow” ran from 1983 to 2006, with reruns airing through 2009.
