PBS meets The Avengers in this funny trailer! [video]
The folks over at Gritty Reboots have created a really funny trailer that is a parody of The Avengers and features the heroes of PBS that dared to teach the youth of the world and the views of PBS the importance of learning. The heroes in this trailer are Carl Sagan, Mr. Rogers, Bob Ross, and Bill Nye.

"WHY DID WE MAKE THIS?
To be blunt: Science, technology, and education are important to us. But we live in a world where the little news we hear of schools, research, and the arts is when they're laying their heads on the chopping block. We live in a world where celebrity and "reality" entertainment is winning the war for our attention. Though this may just seem like it's playing off a funny trope, we do need superheroes in our world. Super men, women (and puppets), like those actualized by PBS, who inspire young generations to be scientists, teachers, and artists. But those heroes will not appear unless we create them."
