I wonder if "The Electric Company" from the 1970s will ever see the light of day on HBO Max?
I wish it would (I really do), but I don't think it's likely because of Bill Cosby's role on the show. Even after he stopped making new appearances, his name was still listed on the Friday credits. And seeing that his appearances were cut from various SS episodes, they'll have to spend a lot more time going through his TEC appearances since he was technically a regular.
I kind of hoped they would have removed the stupid SS Classics log , and restored the Joe Raposo songs that they once had issues getting the rights to, but I guess not.
I'd still like to know how the "stupid" SS classics logo is any different from the Noggin, Sprout, SS.org, PBS, or any TV station logos, period. And considering that a lot of the episodes added to HBO Max were already edited, it's not surprising that those ones are still edited.
I was even hoping they would be adding more classic episodes, but I kind of figured they wouldn’t. Bummer. I guess we just have to stick with what we have.
We'll just have to wait and see what the future has in store. It's likely that they will, but until then, yes, we do have to stick with what's already available...and it all goes back to what we've talked about hundreds of times with us being grateful for what's currently in our reach.
