United Federation of Planets / Books / TV Happy Burtday, LeVar!
Posted by Erik Henriksen on Thu, Feb 16, 2012 at 12:14 PM
LeVar Burton—the hero responsible for keeping the Enterprise shipshape and teaching countless kids that reading is the best thing ever—turns a sprightly 55 years young today! In celebration of this momentous occasion, I present to you the greatest thing that has ever been shown on public television.
(Sorry, Bionic Bunny. You kind of get the shaft in that YouTube. Worf sure does know how to exit a makeup trailer, though! Also, MYSTERIES: Who is this mysterious "Fannypack Man"... and what is Counselor Troi taking from his fannypack?)
Bonus LeVar! Here is the greatest thing that has ever been shown on regular television.
Pierce is a dick.
