Love of Chair was a recurring sketch on the television program The Electric Company. It was seen primarily during the 1971–1972 season. The sketch was a parody of classic soap operas, and spoofed numerous aspects of these shows:
- The name of the sketch was based on the long-running TV soap opera Love of Life.
- The unseen announcer for the sketch was Ken Roberts, who at one time had been the announcer for Love of Life.
- The sketch featured background organ music similar in style to that of classic radio soap operas, including the use of dramatic strings during a key portion of the sketch.
