 The voice of a cast member would say a variant of, "Today on "The Electric Company," the so-and so says, '(bleep),'" and the action would freeze as the graphic of the word of the day (or a card with the word of the day printed on it) became visible to viewers.The redacted words were replaced by a series of Minimoog sounds roughly mimicking the modulation of the word or phrase in question so children could guess them.The still action would linger on the screen for several seconds, then fade to black, where the show number would become visible in a Scanimate animation in a random color.
