HOLMES AND YOYO tv series

[retrotoyboy]

Does any one remember this US TV show,

(No nothing to do with the late porn star JOHN HOLMES)

It was shown here in UK in the mid 1970s, I loved it !

The guy had some doors on his chest which opened , and had some gadgets inside him,

Any one know if it is out on DVD ?

Thanks

You can read about it on Wikipedia:

but there seems no mention of it on this site and they're pretty good:

I watched that show at the time.
Something tells me it won't have aged well.

John Holmes' work, however, still holds up very well...

I was mesmerized by this show as a kid. I even remember using construction paper and crayons to create the opening chest controls for myself!

It was a fun comedy, John Shuck was good after Macmillan and Wife.
Of course the idea didn't die it became Mann and Machine with Yancy Butler and now it's called ... oh i can't remember the current versions name.

Don't forget Future Cop which also aired on ABC, around the same time as Holmes and YoYo.
