This wasn't a mime show. It was a variety show, with musical numbers and comedy...old-style physical comedy.
Robert Shields & Lorene Yarnell did guest-spots on "The Sonny & Cher Show" and "The Muppet Show", which earned them their own weekly variety series. Although itonly lasted a year, it was nominated for an Emmy.
Their "Clinkers" robot characters became instant classics, and inspired the "Robot" and "Moonwalk" dance moves.
Today, Robert Shields sells his artwork and sculptures (plus a DVD of Shields & Yarnell material) in his Ebay Store. Although divorced, he and Lorene still perform together, and are launching a nationwide tour of their live show, starting in December of 2006.
