I love watching the Electric Company before bedtime with my 4 year old son. We were starting to get bored with Volume 1 when Amazon helpfully let us know that Volume 2 was available. Now we are enjoying further episodes of LetterMan and brilliant skits that encourage reading. There are very few repeats within the selected episodes from Volume 1.

This show was AWESOME! I haven't even seen all the episodes on here yet, but when I saw the "Here's Cooking at You" segment with Julia Grownup, I nearly fell on the floor laughing! The recipe (to teach kids the middle ll sound) was for "Grilled Dill Pickles With Chilled Vanilla Filling". Judy Graubart winds up ad-libbing a lot in this sketch, which makes it even funnier. I won't ruin it for you if you haven't seen it, but if you like the Muppets' Swedish Chef, you'll like this sketch, too. Judy, you made my day. I haven't laughed so hard in days.
The rest of the shows on these discs are just as funny, witty, innovative, and educational as they were all those years ago. I hope the staff in charge of TEC know that they have made a great difference in a lot of kids' lives as they learn to read. The cast gets to talk some about their experiences as well. They also introduce the episodes, too! Too much, man!
I love to read to this day, and I know that the Electric Company was a big influence on that! ;) At one part, Skip Hinnant (Fargo North Decoder) said that people come up to him and say "You know, you taught me to read." Well, he taught me, too.
So, HEY YOU GUUUUUYS! Buy these sets for yourself or for your kids. You'll love 'em!

I requested this set based on the listing of features given before release. Be warned, the "LY" song on disc 2 is not the Tom Lehrer "L-Y" song. I wish I had waited until all the reviews were in, since that was the only thing I really wanted.

I was so excited when I heard this was coming out, I just had to have it, so I told my husband to get it for me for an early Christmas present!
It's so great, I really like "Whimper and Whine" and "Sweet, Sweet, Sway", but the whole set is incredible!
I really wish "T-I-O-N" and "L-Y song" were on here too, but oh well, I sure hope they put out another box set, that would be nice!
It's a must have, it certainly helped me, I only hope it'll help my son someday too!
The in between commentaries with the former stars is GREAT, they look so different, but sound the same especially Skip, and Jim!
Buy it today, you'll be glad you did!(I know I was) :-)!!!!!
