Electric Company = Best educational show ever!

Aug 30, 2006 19:10

I've never watched an episode of Electric Company since it was before my time, but hearing a lot of good things about it, I decided to check it out and maybe pick up some more ideas for teaching ESL. I was surprised at how great it was!! For example . .

What, you left out Spiderman???

It is a great series. My now grown kids grew up on it, and I bought the DVDs for Mike, who loves them, and also the Schoolhouse Rock set.

Sadly, I couldn't find the Spiderman clip on Youtube. I might get the DVD set one day . . is it on there?

You know what? I don't know! I haven't watched the whole disk through with Mike, although he has. I'm not sure where it is at the moment or I would go look to see if it's mentioned....

Ah! The Amazon review says yes, Spiderman skits are on it!

I think I watched a few episodes of this on repeats, but by the time I was a kid, CTW (I think) was doing "3...2...1...Contact!" (totally 80s, with neon lights and everything). I also watched the Edison Twins.

You are good at introducing an interesting movie.
How do you find it?

I read many websites, so I always find many interesting things on-line. ;) I know there are some Japanese blogs that look for funny and strange stuff on YOUTUBE . . you need to read these blogs more often. ;)
