title: The Beastly Banana

overview: Aired during the sixth season of The Electric Company, it only included one skit.

overview:
A live-action, recurring skit on the PBS children's television series The Electric Company. Episodes featured the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man, provided to the Children's Television Workshop free of charge, and was played by puppeteer and dancer Danny Seagren.

Stories involved the masked superhero foiling mischievous characters who were involved in petty criminal activities. The cast of The Electric Company played the roles of the various characters in each story, with another serving as narrator. In many of these sketches, viewers were addressed as "true believers."

Unlike other live-action and cartoon productions of Spider-Man, this version of the web-slinging hero did not speak out loud, instead communicating only with word balloons, in order to encourage young viewers to practice their reading skills because he was drawn without a mouth. He also never appeared out of his costume as Peter Parker and, given the series' budget limitations, used his web-shooters sparingly.

title: Super Histórias do Spidey

overview:
Esquete ao vivo da série infantil The Electric Company, exibida pela PBS, com o Homem-Aranha da Marvel Comics. Os episódios eram cedidos gratuitamente ao Children's Television Workshop e interpretados por Danny Seagren.

As histórias mostravam o herói frustrando personagens travessos envolvidos em pequenos crimes. O elenco de The Electric Company desempenhava os papéis dos outros personagens, com um narrador. Em muitos esquetes, os telespectadores eram chamados de "verdadeiros crentes".

Diferente de outras versões do Homem-Aranha, ele não falava, apenas usava balões de fala, incentivando a leitura. Também nunca aparecia como Peter Parker e usava seus lançadores de teias com moderação devido ao orçamento limitado da série.

Mark Horton explores the cutting edge of Victorian information technology in a celebration of one of Britain's most audacious engineering achievements.

Mark and the team rebuild the ingenious invention which, in 1865, finally made the transatlantic cable a glorious reality after ten years of tragic failure.

And, on the dramatic rocky edge of St David's Head in South Wales, Hermione Cockburn explores the very limits of life on the planet to reveal the astonishing fossil of a large sea creature - one which lived 300 million years before the dinosaurs.

title: Surprise Chef

overview:
Surprise Chef was an Australian cooking television show that was broadcast on the Seven Network from 2001 to 2003. It was repeated on Seven HD.

The show revolved around the chef Aristos Papandroulakis, who would surprise an unwitting Coles supermarket shopper with an offer to cook dinner for them in their own home. If taken up on the offer, Papandroulakis then set himself to cook a filling meal using only the ingredients available to him from their pantry, fridge or what groceries they had bought. He also set himself a "challenge ingredient"; in one episode this involved using a bottle of Coca Cola as a marinade.

In bookending segments, Papandroulakis was also joined by co-presenters Ian "Herbie" Hemphill and Flip Shelton, who gave tips on food preparation and meal ideas. Later, Greg Duncan Powell and Ben Canaider joined the cast, giving advice on choosing wines, while Cindy Sargon replaced Shelton in 2003.
