I'm glad Bob Ross is still popular. He was always my go-to in the early morning after a night of partying, and his skills were even more impressive when I was sitting on the couch, dazed and confused, with the loot from the fridge spread out in front of me.

Bob Ross was always on at 2:00 on PBS, which lined up perfectly for me finishing college classes and getting home. It was always such a nice way to de-stress after school.

Years later when I would babysit my 2 year old nephew, I found that it was actually a good show for kids to watch and calm down. Something about his whole demeanor is just magical.

I'd say Bob Ross is always a good choice – in any context and for all age groups.

I would download a bunch a watch them when I would fly. Makes the stress of traveling a lot easier.
