          There are some clips on Hulu.
          "Do you believe, you believe in magic?
          'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
          Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
          If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

            And yes, the new Electric Company sucks so bad it needs a Crazy Straw, but that clip was funny.

              The Simpsons did an Electric Company parody this year, even Spidey made a cameo.

                When I was a kid I loved the EC, didn't Morgan Freeman play on it? I also remember a short bald dude with a moustache that played a small roll in stir crazy, he grabbed a guy's junk with some plyers, awesome!

                    The Electric Company is certainly a mainstay in our household. Our 10 and 3 year girls love it.
                    One of my daughters took it upon herself to watch the new one and was really let down.
                    She prefers the old one with the catchy songs and the skits.

                    "And what about Namoi" line from Boy in Chair skit rules.

                    Here are some of our favorite songs:

                    The Short Circus - "Sweet Sweet Sway"

                    Tom Lehrer - "Silent E"

                    Tom Lehrer - "S-N (Snore, Sniff, And Sneeze)"


                    Tom Lehrer - "L-Y"

                    Tom Lehrer - "O-U (The Hound Song)"

                      OMG! I start looking at those clips and I'm five years old again, singing along.

                      "Outta-sighteous!"
                      "Do you believe, you believe in magic?
                      'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
                      Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
                      If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

                        Watching the old Electric Company instantly takes me back to the 70s.

                        Few other shows do that...I will always love the original Electric Company.

                          Man, I couldn't find that episode...sigh.

                          But I found the very funny electric shock aversion therapy scene...

                            My daughter actually likes both version of the show the new one and the old one (we rented the DVD from the library). New one isn't that bad once you get past the fact that it doesn't really have anything to do with the 70's version.
                            It's all good!

                              Loved the original Electric Company. I used to occasionally pick up Electric Company Magazines too!
