Tom Lehrer is awesome! My wife hates it when I break into a rousing chorus of "Lobachevsky"
As for the new Electric Company, I think it has maximum suckage potential. The original series was one of the pioneers of edutainment. I find it highly unlikely that they will come close to being able to replicate the talent of the likes of Morgan Freeman, Bill Cosby, Rita Moreno, Gene Wlider, Mel Brooks, etc. More than likely it will a group sanitized Benetton teens, who will be able to go "on tour"
. And I'm going to lay money now that the theme song "a brand new funky-fresh rap/hip-hop joint".
