I wanna see Bill Nye kickstarter up some new episodes now.

Hell, I'd like to see more programming like Newton's Apple and Square One Television pop up

Fuck yes. Square One was the single reason I didn't fucking hate math growing up. I also love Bill Nye as well for that matter.

Man if a couple parents got together and pooled some cash, $10k for a school assembly would rock so hard. This is exciting news and the overwhelming response to the kickstarter is mindboggling.

[Ksandra]

You can wear the Visor for $10,000. Incredible.

I admit, I laughed a little when I saw that no one has purchased this yet. I am sure every trekkie wants to, yet sadly none can afford it lol

[Silenka]

Yes, that goal is going to be reached in a matter of minutes, now. I remember watching RR in school. Fond memories. Good on people for funding educational stuff like this.

[Cantih]

And funded!

[Silenka]

Looks like it'll reach 2m before the day is out, if it keeps going like this @_@

[Cantih]

There's generally a slowdown until stretch goals are announced.

[6souls]

It's rising by a thousand dollars every 30 seconds.

[bori]

Goal already reached. <3

[arus2001]

Yeah, I figured it'd make it a little before 9pm EST at the rate it was climbing. Curious to see how much it'll make by the time the 34 days are up.

This and Magic Schoolbus back as a TV series.

Also holy hell at how much this raised within 24 hours. This has to be a record...

[Cantih]

Nope, Veronica Mars did it in four.

[Boyiee]

I can't believe how fast that went, and here I am debating if I want a bumper sticker or not!

BUTTERFLY IN THE SKYYYYYYY

I CAN FLY TWICE AS HIIIIIIIIIIGH

edit: pitched in 10 bucks cos i can spare it (canceling my cable in a bit, so that should be an extra ~110 bucks a month) this month and cos FUCK YEAH READING RAINBOW

i used to love this show because Geordi and Data were my favorite characters on TNG, and this was on right after TNG (and maybe DS9 and Voyager, too) aired, so I literally got to watch Levar be awesome for like 2 hours straight.

I will have this song in my head for hours now lol.









Take a-look in a-book
The reading rain-booooow
IIIIII CAAAN DO ANY-THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING

DAMNYOU!

It's about to hit 1.5 Mil right about now, in around SIXTEEN HOURS. AMAZE.

The best part is, if you look under the updates, they recorded an iPhone video right when they reached the goal. LeVar is all emotional and they're all excited. Feels good man.

Here's the direct link to the video:

Edit: like 10 mins later and another 6k~ and this is at 11PST,2AMEST.

Was kind of vague on Twitter, but Brent Spiner made it sound like he'll add 9% of whatever they raise in finale. Only way I could interpret him bumping down from 10%, anyway.

Hey, Veronica Mars is not bad.

Honestly, the only thing I can think of that could break 1m faster would be Firefly.

YOU MEAN TO TELL ME DATA AND GEORDI ARE IN ON THIS TOGETHER!?

Firefly would be terrifying to watch on kickstarter
