After the show's cancellation, [=LeVar=] Burton attempted to revive the Reading Rainbow as an internet-based outreach project in 2012 through a mobile app. As a testament to how popular and beloved the property is, the Website/{{Kickstarter}} [[https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/readingrainbow/bring-reading-rainbow-back-for-every-child-everywh campaign]] for the project was started, and it reached its $1,000,000 goal ''[[SugarWiki/AwesomeMoments before the first day was finished]]''. It eventually received over $5.4 million in donations, setting a record for [[http://www.latimes.com/books/jacketcopy/la-et-jc-reading-rainbow-the-most-popular-kickstarter-ever-20140702-story.html most individual backers]] for a Kickstarter campaign.
As you can imagine, [[https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/readingrainbow/bring-reading-rainbow-back-for-every-child-everywh/posts/858121 Burton was overwhelmed by this support]].
Unfortunately, the project quickly got mired in lawsuits after WNED (the PBS station that produced the original show) [[http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/reading-rainbow-owner-accuses-levar-burton-theft-extortion-lawsuit-1027372 sued]] Burton, alleging that Burton was didn't actually own the rights to the Reading Rainbow IP ([=LeVar=] had thought that he had bought out the entire franchise, which turned out to be incorrect).

In 2018, Burton started a podcast entitled simply ''[=LeVar=] Burton Reads''. The podcast is very similar in format, except that it's audio-only and features more mature stories rather than children's literature. It also came under fire in the lawsuit for Burton describing it as "Reading Rainbow for adults" (he no longer does, but fans do with impunity) and because WNED claimed copyright infringement over the phrases "you don't have to take my word for it" and "I'll see you next time" (unsurprisingly, they lost that one).

The show was critically acclaimed for its promotion of literacy and for never talking down to its target audience of elementary school-aged children. For all the episodes that covered fun and whimsical topics, there were plenty that dealt unflinchingly with challenging and delicate subject matter, such as love, loss, death, and war.
