Bob Ross And The Joy of Painting

hmccabe writes "'The Joy of Painting', the PBS show that taught many of us how to paint 'happy little trees,' is being made into a videogame. Apparently Nintendo's DS and Revolution systems, and PC computers will be seeing the title, which has been confirmed as not-an-april-fools-joke." From the article: "Hatcher himself admits to being a big Ross fan, which is partly why he wants to make games based on his work. 'I personally loved watching Bob Ross growing up and I enjoyed watching how easily he created his paintings. We want to translate that same feeling of watching the TV show into playing a Bob Ross game," he said. "Whether you are an eight-year-old child, or a 65-year-old grandma, we want anyone to be able to pick up the game to create and play to your heart's content.'" "

And now we paint a happy little tree over here. ... And let's paint another one next to it so it doesn't feel so alone.

I loved Bob's shows.

After 20 years (1961-1981) in the USAF, maybe Bob painted happy little trees because all his animosity had been used up in helping blow stuff up?
