'Electric' Is Rewired For the '00s

The thing about the original 'Electric Company' was that if you squinted just right, it looked less like a reading show and more like a special that the cable company would yank if they knew you were getting it for free. Where else could you see Bill Cosby -- already a star from 'I Spy' -- box it out with Morgan Freeman? (Or, in another scene, smoke an evil cigar?) Why else would Rita Moreno -- already an Oscar winner when the show began taping in 1971 -- donate her lung power and freakishly fabulous legs?
