Inspired by the "Sesame Street" and "Schoolhouse Rock" threads.
I loved and watched SS, Zoom, and Mr. Rogers like everyone else. But for my money there was no better kids program in the 70s than "The Electric Company." It was WAY ahead of its time and the special effects were groundbreaking for its day. And let us not forget that one of today's greatest actors, Morgan Freeman, got his start on this show.
EASY READER, THAT'S MY NAME...MMM, MMM, MMM
READIN' READIN' THAT'S MY GAME
TOP TO BOTTOM, LEFT TO RIGHT
THAT READIN' STUFF IS....OUTTA SIGHT!
In addition to "Easy Reader" I also loved "Letter Man" and, of course, the "Spiderman" bits.
If you go to Wikipedia and type in "The Electric Company" you can see a whole list of all the regular Electric Company sketches. Sorry, I can't link to it yet (not enough posts).
