The creators of the new RB know something about astronomy, and I'm impressed. There are 10 rings around Rainbowland, tilted at 45° from the ecliptic so the shadows from them never appear on the surface of the planet. This is good for plants, but makes the rings hard to observe from the surface. The ...

Speaking of fanfiction, I anticipate new stories on fanfiction.net, so I contacted the admins and got the character filter activated.

A few more things... The blue and indigo keeps don't have a path to the red brick road. Looking at the overall pattern, it makes for an odd symmetry. Of the four bridges, the one by the red keep does not have a path on the other side. I suspect the one behind the violet keep leads to the Color Cave....

Oh Robert, I've missed this :D :D :D Me too, a lot more than I realized! With the old series, we developed a history, a geography, a mnerology, and a cosmology. With the new series, we'll have to start over. I look forward to it! And thanks for posting the picture! I didn't think of it that way at ...

I made some screencaps from the trailer and promo, and have learned some more about the changes made. I would have posted them here, but I got an error message that the alloted space for attachments is full. There might be some spoilers here, but anyone can freeze frame the trailer and see the same ...

Hi, Robbie! Nice to meet you! By coincidence, I was called Robbie when I was young. I never answered to Bob or Bobby. I was 29 in 1984, so I was never part of the show's target audience. I've thought about it over the years since, and have come to a few conclusions about why RB appealed to me so muc...

Hey, Katy! I think your replies were posted while I was still writing mine. Maybe we should revive the old Rainbowland Science Team! :lol: At the time of the old series, only Saturn was known to have rings. Now we know all four gas giants do. There's no particular reason for an earthlike planet not ...

Well... she was antagonistic to Rainbow in the series, and there is the new picture of her with Murky and Lurky. I've decided I like the music playing in the trailers. Fits the new cartoon very well. Those here who know me know I was never part of the show's target audience; I was 29 in 1984. (Yes, ...

Hi, all! I'm not a new member here, but it's been years since I posted. I've never liked the forum format, but even with the new series announcement, the mailing list is still inactive. So if I want to talk about RB, I have to come here. I'm very much liking what I see! The original cast is back, up...

I had joined the mail list for a while and came to teh boards when they were introduced. I also joined your rpg that was on Yahoo much at the latter end when it died down. My character was Cloud Nine. Screen names as bhtandfriends I used. I would beg to differ since Krys has similar physical appear...
