The Reading Club (lost WHUT talk show; 1999-2001)

Status: Lost

Reading Club was a public TV show that was made by Dunbar Productions and WHUT. 13 episodes were known to have been made, each being 30-minutes long.

Premise

The series focused on African American authors. Each episode had different "club members". Said "club members" were usually people of color. Each of these people was selected from actual book clubs across the US. Usually, the books reviewed would talk about themes such as self-discovery and love.

Availability

Very little is known about it. No episodes can be found online. No clips can be found online. No pictures can be found online. The only main things validating the show's existence is an archived schedule page for Vermont Public Television from 6/18/2000 and TV Guide page for it. The lack of info, pictures, or video of the show is due to the fact that it only aired episodes from 5/15/2000 to 6/19/2000. Reruns probably aired until 9/30/2000 when the PBS Kids Bookworm Bunch block came out, kicking the show to obscurity.
