EndedVariety showComedy, Children
One of public television's most popular children's programs gets a facelift for today's media-driven kids, boosting the interactive content, but the commendable goal of the program remains the same as it was in the '70s: reducing the literacy gap between low- and middle-income families and promoting the idea that "reading is cool."
