The Best of The Electric Company

For all you children of the 70s, this should bring back some memories. The Children's Television Workshop has just released a 4 disc DVD set of The Best of the Electric Company. The Electric Company was geared toward kids who had outgrown Sesame Street; 6 to 10 years old. It ran from 1971 to 1985. I remember watching this on back to back with 321 Contact. I liked 321 Contact a little more if I recall correctly. It ran from 1980 to 1992 and was more geared toward scientific principles. Anyone remember the Bloodhound Gang? No, not the band. I also remember first being exposed to rock'n'roll on 321 Contact when they went backstage at a Kiss concert. The Electric Company stared a young Morgan Freeman and even featured Spiderman cartoons.
