    Anybody else remember this forgotten 70s show

    I seem to remember watching this show way back in 74 or 75
    Was wondering if anyone else remembers this show that didn't last long

              Interestingly enough, Holmes & Yo-Yo, a comedy, and the other show Futurecop, a drama, were both plagiarised from Harlan Ellison's & Ben Bova's teleplay: Brillo. He sued ABC, both shows were on ABC, and won.

                  I never knew that ashame they didn't get him to write the scripts i bet if he had these two shows would be more remembered, i drew a blank on Futurecop so i went to youtube and found the intro and i still don't remember it but here's the link if anyone is interested

                        I watched it when it was new.

                        Even as a kid I realized it was basically a ripoff of Get Smart's Hymie character.

                          Don't remember the show, but when I viewed the clip I recognized the actor that played Hymie in the Get Smart Series.
