Well, in 1976, when this show premiered, I was eight
years old. I was quiet the budding geek at the time, and I sought after any
vaguely sci-fi show.
The episode that I remember most clearly was one
where Yoyo was overheating/breaking down. He was "sweating", though it wa more
acurately steam. Holmes handed him a hanky with which to mom his brow. When Yoyo
placed it to his head, it made a sound like an iron hitting a wet shirt. He
handed it back and Holmes asked how much he charged for a pair of pants. At the
end of the show, Yoyo was funning down (very slow speech was the indicator of
this) because his power core was failing. Holmes pulls up behind him in his car
and pushes him (with Yoyou standing stiffly strait up in front) to a power relay
station, positions Yoyo's hands up above his head, and pushes him into some
exposed leads which charges him up. Yoyo is so charged up that he dances back to
town, telling Holmes he'll meet him there.
I think of this show (which
ran less than a season) every time I see John Schuck; I even saw him as villian
of the week on one of the Law and Order shows last week, and the first thing I
thought about was Holmes and Yoyo.
