A clip from the pilot where The Electric company show described their super powers to newest member Keith. Notice that The Prankster's leader Francine is lurking and spying in on the gang in the background. Mwuhahaaaaaaa!

It varies from PBS to PBS, but I know it's on Fridays. In my area, it's where the Ruff Ruffman episode would usually air... 5:30. Also in my area, it runs sometime Saturday Morning. But I can't remember what time.

I was thinking of The Pranksters had an evil plan to kidnap the Electric Company gang! In the second season!

You know, after watching the show, I don't think that's really their style. The Pranksters seem more like the Gangreen Gan on the Powerpuff Girls... a general nusance. not so much evil, but nasty, cheating, lying... basically they wouldn't want to do anything horribly illegal...

That's what I think makes them work, and makes the show all the more realistic and believable. I don't think it would have that feeling if they went up against a real evil.

That was pretty good, very in tune with what Electric Company always tried to accomplish. I didn't always understand what he was saying though, they'd need to show it a few times to get the point across.
