the electric company
Easy Reader says -- The Electric Company is on DVD, man
If you were a kid during the early 1970s, those were your
salad days for children's programming. If you weren't getting up before your parents on Saturday mornings to watch
Scooby-Doo or Superfriends, you were up before your parents on weekday mornings to watch Captain
Kangaroo or your local kid's show.
Also likely, since you only had about four channels to choose from back then, you were spending some time watching your local public television station. If you were really little, you would probably be watching Sesame Street, which was just hitting its stride with all of the preschool set (we called it nursery school back then, dangnabit!). If you had already learned all of your letters and numbers, and Susan was losing some of her allure, you were probably watching Sesame Street's older brother -- The Electric Company.
