Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - not what I expected
Not only is the return policy terrible, this movie has too many adult interviews to entertain little kids.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Blast from the Past!
This past summer (2009), Electric Company came back on TV - - once a week on Fridays. I was so excited to watch it with my three kids (ages 4, 4 and 6) because I grew up watching it. I was so disappointed because, while the new episodes tried to teach reading, the show is so modernized with things like rap and kids are now the "stars" of the show.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Turn on the Power!
This dvd set brings back wonderful childhood memories of watching television and learning with a smile. I really never thought I would see any of this stuff ever again and would like to thank Shout! for making this dvd set possible.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - still the best!
My son lived for the Electric Company every day when he was a child, so now that his daughter is 5, he suggested that us grandparents get this set of DVD's for her. She too, has watched them and already memorized so many of the familiar songs we all knew from 35 years ago. It is just as educational as it was then and the skits just as entertaining.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Even better than I remember
I bought this for my infant son who shows a somewhat dismaying interest in television even at 7 months. So, I figured, why not get him started on something educational? He'll roll around on the floor and pay fairly frequent attention to this video. I think it's great, even better than I remember, because it provides visual and aural cues about word phonics. The skits are short, good for a kid's attention span, and interspersed with cartoon shorts. If you didn't watch this as a kid in the '70s and ... Read More
