1976 ABC. "The Dental Dynamiter." John Schuck and Richard B. Shull robot cop sitcom. Android. Bruce Kirby, Andrea Howard. Guest stars Dick Yarmy, James T. Callahan, Lew Horn. John Astin and Jack Arnold directed several episodes. One I watched before had Jay Leno in it. Other android cops were seen on Future Cop and Mann & Machine. 

Dental offices are being bombed by a serial bomber. Holmes and Yoyo have to pound the pavement and try to track down leads and find some connection between all the dentists. Yoyo has a Polaroid camera built in that takes a picture when you press his nose and prints out the pic from his shirt pocket. Very handy here when a college tie-in is found. 

Holmes & Yoyo is not nearly as bad as its reputation suggests. It is pretty silly. A watchable 70s cop sitcom. Eleven episodes aired and there are three or four eps. on Youtube right now. I've watched two or three.
