I would figure that with so many classic SESAME fans, there'd have to be ELECTRIC COMPANY fans that go hand in hand?

Am I right?

And is it just me, or does your memory sometimes blur which cartoons or skits were on SESAME or TEC?

Yeah, I do, I have to be honest. I was more a SS fan though. But I had a crush on that blonde from the Short Circut LOL!

I loved The Electric Company.I think my favourite characters would be Janet Of The Jungle and her companion Paul The Gorilla.I still have a book called"The Electric Company Nitty Gritty Rhyming Riddle Book"from 1973.I also liked how the show included a live action version of Spider Man,and occasionally showed it's own Road Runner cartoons.Speaking of which,there is a special Electric Company website where you can view the actual openning and closing credit scenes from the show's first five seasons.You can also view some old cartoon segments from the show,including four Road Runner cartoons.Just type"The Electric Company CTW",and then click onto"The Electric Company".

If you're talking about the website with the Digital Archive of THE ELECTRIC COMPANY, it's no longer there....Sesame Workshop forced them to take it down with a cease and desist letter.

I liked the electric company. The Spiderman skits were cool. It sucks that Sesame Workshop did that.
How sad. The devil really does rule this world.
I don't remember Wonderworks.

I wasn't allowed to watch Electric Company. Guess it was too freaky deaky for my parents or something. :shrugs: The only eps I've seen were on Noggin.
