Yep, the kids and I watch it. Every time he starts to put a large tree right up front we laugh and say noooo! Always turns out looking good in the end.
Am I the only one that's completely happy seeing our own Indiana Bob Ross on Netflix?? I remember watching his new episodes on PBS all the time after school, and knowing it was filmed in Muncie blew my mind then! Always was a fan of him and his paintings and positivity.
I never really got into him, hard to take that hair seriously.
The show was produced/filmed in Muncie from '84-94.
Bob wasn't an Indiana native. Not even sure he lived in IN for those 10 years when the show was filming. I'd venture to guess that he didn't - but that's just conjecture.
He didn't. He stayed at a hotel here. He lived in FL. But hey, at least Funcie has something going for it. Here, in our tcom building there is an office with 4 of his paintings and the iconic photo.
Minnestrata (community center?) is the only place that he ever allowed an exhibit of his work, too. That's kind of cool.
I almost always get drowsy watching him paint, don't get me wrong, he's fascinating to watch work, but man, I can watch the show, and the second it ends, I'm out like a light!Indeed, thanks Netflix. I employed Bob Ross to put my niece to sleep this weekend.
