I Love The 70s - Shields & Yarnell

This has been airing on VH1 for awhile now, but I only recently caught most of it. On one of the episodes (they do one hour for each year, for those who haven't seen it or are unfamiliar with the premise), they have a small bit concerning Shields & Yarnell. They show them doing some mime improv (the cannonball shot was very well done), and they do an all-too-brief shot of them doing their robot characters. For someone who wasn't alive in the 70s, and had always heard about this, it was nice to get at least a momentary glimpse of their act. It makes me want to see more ^_^;; They were good! I, err, unfortunately forget which year, but I think it was in the middle somewhere...

1977, about 5 or 35 minutes into it. I just caught it. Not really worth going out of your way for, unless a few seconds of mime is really your thing, but there it is.

Yeah, unfortunately, it's not much...but since I believe they haven't been on TV for such a long time, you've gotta take what you can get! ^_^ Better to be aware of it than not, I suppose.

Maybe you weren't aware their shows are (or at least, were) available on VHS sometime ago...

Keep an eye on eBay...they just might resurface
