I think the original electric company is way better than the new one. THe new one doesn't have the charm, and feels too much like "Between the lions."
lol I like this version, and I agree with StuntmanJackR about the live version wih Morgan Freeman, I enjoyed that one too with "ham and eggs". Do you have that one too?
I never forgot the Electric Company, but OMG...I totally spaced the sweet roll cartoon, LOL!! It's so cool to know that there're others out there that cherish the memories of this show. I Love it!!!!! To everyone that recalls this show with equal fondness....you all rock! XOXO
This reminds me of what happened to a guy I know. He overheard a woman order a soft serve cone at Mc Donald's, and the girl at the counter told her that the soft serve machine wasn't working. So the woman said, "Okay, then can I have a milk shake?"
Having since grown up working with the public, more than once I've wished I could openly vent the way the waitress did. I know exactly how she feels!LOL
Let me guess...someone stole your sweet roll??

Why do women get so emotional? All the guy wanted was a sweet roll.

I remember the live action version. I think it replaced eggs. After the waitress stormed out, Morgan Freeman then says, "How about a sweet roll?"
StuntmanJackR 3 years ago
Yeah, I remember this one. Oh man, we watched this sketch in my 1st grade class. It was so funny.

Classic. If it was done today Estelle Harris and Jerry Stiller would do it.

there was a live segment of this with Morgan Freeman as the customer and Hattie Winston as the waitress. Only he was asking for eggs.

That is another classic worth looking for. Comedy and education that helps people to read is a great combination!
