Editorial Review:
When "The Electric Company" made its television debut in October 1971 it was instantly clear that it would fulfill its mission of helping struggling and reluctant readers. With a ground-breaking and diverse cast clever writing innovative direction and an original visual and musical style the show was so effective that by the end of its first season nearly a quarter of all US schools were using the show in the classroom. Generations of young people learned to read from the series making it one of the most important and enduring shows in American television history. "The Electric Company's Greatest Hits and Bits" is a clip-filled celebration featuring many of the series' most popular segments (with Bill Cosby Morgan Freeman Rita Moreno and the rest of the multi-talented Electric Company cast) and includes new interviews with cast members Jim Boyd Judy Graubart Skip Hinnant Tom Lehrer Rita Moreno and Joan Rivers as well as with series creator Joan Ganz Cooney.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Lots of fun with an old favorite
This video is full of old, funny routines and cartoons from Electric Company. It also includes more recent interviews with the actors from the series. It's more of a reminiscence than an episode from the actual show.
