'We're gonna turn it on...'
Here's an alert for my fellow post-boomers: "The Electric Company" is back!
Sesame Workshop is revamping the early '70s children's educational show, which boasted a cast that included Bill Cosby, Rita Moreno and a then-unknown Morgan Freeman and a funky theme song ("We're gonna turn it on/we're gonna bring you the power") - all aimed at teaching basic reading to kids who have outgrown "Sesame Street" -
Here's a clip from the new rendition:
The new version of "The Electric Company" debuts Monday, Jan. 19, with four back-to-back episodes. (The two-hour block starts at 3:30 Mountain time on Salt Lake City's KUED, Ch. 7.)
