_LeVarBurton

I’ve been waiting for them to ask!

I need to say here just how impressed I was with the level of commitment Donald Glover brought to those moments between Troy and LeVar. For instance, I wasn’t present for the bathroom scene where he sings RR and delivers the line, “Set phasers to stun!”, but when I saw the finished episode I was floored. Arguably one of the best lines in TV history.

I SING IT ALL THE TIME. IT MY RINGTONE.

Someone named /u/YaytheRedHead shared a very touching story about not being able to do their book report for Reading Rainbow, but deleted their comment, so here's my reply:

Oh my god, what a beautiful story!

Yes.

This is really touching. Anybody who wants something that badly, I won't stand in their way. We'll figure it out. PM my reddit account for more information and we'll figure it out.

Wow, God bless your dad. That's the extraordinary thing about my life, really, is my life on the street you know? Because when people approach me, I never know where it's from. These days, I have sort of become pretty good at doing a quick read - is this a ROOTS fan, a Star Trek fan, a Reading Rainbow fan. So when somebody comes up to me and says something like "My father is a huge fan" and I have the space and the grace to really engage, I have the greatest job in the world, really. Because I have found that simply by saying hello or smiling at somebody, it can literally make their day.
