I remember Electric Company followed Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers when I was wee. It was my favourite of the three. I still get one of their funky counting songs stuck in my head sometimes.
Electric Company shaped my childhood moreso than any of the other PBS shows. I'm sure that's why my earliest memories of falling in love with reading comics all point back to the Spider-Man segments on this show.

Jim Henson trained him to be a puppeteer, and he also worked on ‘Sesame Street’ and appeared as Big Bird on ‘The Ed Sullivan Show.’

FWIW, I too think fruit pies suck. 😂 But I'm Canadian, so I don't think my opinion matters in this instance.
Apparently, not everyone agreed with my correct assertion recently that apple pie is bad. After Kyle Brandt's poll, we delved deeply into the issue.
