Blondine au pays de l'arc-en-ciel

I loved "Rainbow Brite" when I was a little girl! Though it was short lived (only 13 television episodes, one movie, and one live action video), it grew so many fans. As the episodes went on, new characters were introduced and the old ones were never lost. The show even had characters cross over from the movie. The tales of friendship and colors, fun and adventure carried on through many books and toys. It's too bad it didn't last longer or that it's so hard to find anything Rainbow Brite anymore. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves the 80s or someone who has a little one they would like to introduce a wonderful cartoon character to.

In this age of "Barney", "Teletubbies", and "Pokemon" ulgfh I can't stand pokemon. One wonders just what happened to good ol Rainbow Brite. I mean think about for a minute. She was the only childrens hero that kids could look up to, and not have parents complain about her being "homosexual" or, "too violent" for kids. Though I wonder why some one doesn't try to revive RB for Y2k? It might not be such a bad idea!

I loved Rainbow Brite all through childhood, I loved the colours, the characters and the music. I wish it hadn't died away, and that it was easier to find now-a-days.

Rainbow Bright may be widely ridiculed and joked about these days, but it was, and remains one of the best children's show of the 80's.

I may be one of 4 guys who will openly admit to liking this show, and I take no shame in that. Rainbow Bright had something magical about it that captured my imagination as a kid. The plot, music, and production may seem very laughable by today's standards, but for those of us that remember this time period, it brings back very special memories. The things I always loved about the show (and still do) was it's sense of adventure and fun, and Murky & Lurky's oddball attempts to try and outsmart Rainbow and the Kids. All of the episodes had something fun and creative to them, and to a young kid it was gateway to a world of adventure. Call me crazy, but I just love everything about this show, the music, the animation, the girlish plots, you name it!

I had one friend who liked this and a little sister that loved it...so I won't give it 1 Star on the belief that they saw something in it that I didn't at that age.

However, I will use the same argument now, to trash it, that I did when I was a little kid in the 80s.

"She's a color protector! She protects color! That is the stupidest thing on earth! Mom and Dad used to be in black and white and they're fine!"

OK, maybe I wasn't the absolute brightest kid in the world but...I still think i had a valid point.
