I've heard of a lot of Electric Company fans looking for a stop-motion animated skit about food called "Peanut Butter and Jelly" sung to the tune of "Pomp and Circumstance". Well, you will never guess what I just found...

If anyone wonders where I got the "Pomp and Circumfood" skit, here's the site where I found it.


This is the website of the song's original animator, Edward Bakst. Some other words he animated for The Electric Company were BLOCKS, BUTTONS, CANDY, CARS, CLOCK, NAILS, PEANUTS, PIE, SANDWICH, STAMPS, WORMS, and YARN.

I noticed something about one of the Electric Company segments in which June Angela blows bubbles and the word "bubbles" appears on screen. I don't know if this is worth pointing out, but... the lowercase U in the word is facing backwards!
