I never thought I’d ever see Electric Company again, let alone video/audio files floating around on the net! Is the show still being broadcast on Noggin? I’ve been trying to keep an eye out for it, but I never was able to find out just when. I miss that ‘ol show, but these video files are quite a nice flashback to the days of old. Will there be any more? Now that I found these ones, I’ll most likely be cryin’ for more craziness with the croonin’ crew of the most creative show in the crowning days of my youth.

…tune in next time, when SonicBlu buys a new *waaahmp*

My Dear
You out did yourself with this website!!! Tomorrow (Feb 25th) is me birthday and I got this in a e-greeting card… needless to say when I opened it at work… a FLOOD of 30 something people poured in my office… and begin to sing the “Sign Song” (along with me)… then at our Fat Tueday luncheon we all started “Silhouette Syllables.” It’s amazing how different people from different walks of life have on common connection… THE ELECTRIC COMPANY… honey thanx so much…you site is almost better than Tiffany’s & CO!!!! Hug and Kisses from Los Angeles, CA

Regards
DEMI X

The short animated man who says “Who’s the Dummy Writing This Show?” was voiced by Mel Brooks. ;)

Glad you enjoy the archive! The files come from the original Electric Company MP3/Video archive by Joe Renzetti, who captured most of the video and audio from The Electric Company’s brief rebroadcast on Noggin, the childrens’ cable channel formerly partially owned by CTW.

Man, this show brings back so many memories! How did you manage to get all those songs and videos, since the show is no longer airing? They just don’t make shows like this anymore.
Upon looking at the photos of the original cast, I thought that Jennifer of the Jungle looked a liitle like Gilda Radner.
She was a very funny comediene, and she looked good to. The show was very entertaining, and fun to watch and something to look forward to seeing on TV. I had somehow managed to find and purchase a used record of the Electric Company at an outdoor flea market. And the funniest thing is that after the opening theme song is sung, the short animated man from the series says his famous funny line “Who’s the Dummy Writing This Show?” Very Funny.

This was mentioned earlier, but I would like to add that Hilarious House of Frightenstein is the best children’s show ever. You wouldn’t happen to have any tapes of that kicking around, would you?

nah, I liked it. it just surprised me how deep the wiring went. if the sequence had ended with someone biting the head off a chicken, and someone handed me a chicken, y’know.. I can’t tell how far it would have gone.
