Travel back in time to the 1950's and forward with amazing memories of Robby the Robot and his wild TV and Movie appearances, guest spots, and cameos. Robby the Robot made his debut in the 1956 sci-fi big budget movie, "The Forbidden Planet". From there he starred in the B-movie the "Invisible Boy". Robby was no stranger to TV even during his early film career making an appearance on the Perry Como show to promote "The Forbidden Planet".
He did appearances on a ton of TV shows throughout the decades including Lost in Space, Wonder Woman, Mork and Mindy, Ark II, Hazel, The Addams Family and more. Robby has been known as the hardest working robot in Hollywood. He's even made an appearance with Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck on 2003 film "Looney Tunes Back in Action".
No other robot has been on television as long and on such a big variety of shows as Robby.

I recall the line about the person in the Robby suit being a 'lush', but at that age, I had no idea what that term meant. I remember being perplexed by the line, but I'd forgotten what show it was in. This video filled in the memory gap - it was on an episode of Wonder Woman.

Robbie's voice in Forbidden Planet was that of Marvin Mueller, Michael Anthony, the man who passed out a weekly check on the TV series The Millionaire.

@granvillesimmons6033 7 месяцев назад

I'm a HUGE Robby fan. I've always enjoyed his TV and movie appearances. The same man who designed Robby designed the Lost In Space robot. Kinoshita, I believe his name was.

@tomboughan2718 5 месяцев назад

Robby also appeared with the Byrds when they sang Mr. Spaceman on TV.

@MayanFrighter100000 2 дня назад

Robby the robot was a mechanize suit, that was the first time I heard about this.

@kennethwilson9970 7 месяцев назад

I remember the Mork and Mindy episode that was my favorite episode of that show. Also, I think the Pink Lady is referring to the Japanese singing group Pink Lady and Jeff.

@tvcrazyman 7 месяцев назад

Yeah, I think so, but I hadn't ever heard of them before I was researching for this video.

@kennethwilson9970 7 месяцев назад

@tvcrazyman Yeah, they were a singing group that was popular in the 70s. I first heard about them when reading the autobiography. The Life of Jim Varney a.k.a Ernest and Jim Clampit.

Great video. He was also in the 1988 movie, The Phantom Empire with the cyclops head.

There was only one Robby costume produced for Forbidden Planet, so all his appearances prior to the 1970s are the actual Forbidden Planet prop. Starting in the early 1970s replicas were made and I believe all his film appearances from that point (around the time of the Columbo episode) on are replica costumes.

I met Robbie the Robot back in the ‘60s at Harry’s Ace Hardware on Magazine Street in New Orleans. I was around four or five years old at the time. He scared the hell out of me and everyone else, as the man in the robot suit was obviously drunk. Robbie was rude and crass, much to the audience’s surprise. He made a little girl blow up a balloon until it popped in her face, the entire time yelling at her to, “BLOW!!! BLOOOW!!!!! BLOOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!” The children were terrified and the adults were mortified! Then, at the end of the event, Robbie gave everyone ‘autographed’ black and white 8” X 10” photographs of himself that came out of the horizontal slats in his ‘neck’. I remember crying a lot, and the evening was most traumatic for all who attended.

@tvcrazyman 2 месяца назад

Wow! That sounds terrible. That would be very interesting to see if someone could have taped it back then.

Robby also did a Commercial for Starlog Magazine.

@tvcrazyman 7 месяцев назад

I think I saw that somewhere on youtube. There's probably a lot more commercials he did that have been lost to time.

His best acting effort was in Forbidden Planet and Mork and Mindy.

@tvcrazyman 7 месяцев назад

I think his appearance on the Addams Family was funny too and the one on Dobie Gillis really stands out in my mind and Lost in Space, of course, but the Mork and Mindy episode was hilarious and nothing can beat his first appearance on Forbidden Planet.

@mackermaldrill2656 7 месяцев назад

You should do a video on Pink Lady and Jeff. It only lasted a few episodes, but it's worth it.

"Mildred looked like Robby... had lost his head and gone to a junkyard on Sesame Street to replace it." A better comment might have been to say that they slapped a wig on the Uncle Simon head from the Twilight Zone episode mentioned earlier at 4:59.

@thefantasticretroreviewer3941 7 месяцев назад

10:01, I'm not gonna lie, I never knew that this thing was somewhat suppose to be Robbie the Robot in Looney Tunes Back in Action (which the Film turned 20 Years Old last week), or at least resembled him, since I wasn't fully familiar with the Character until I started watching this video right now.

@gregcloninger5120 7 месяцев назад

Wow, this video is GREAT! I remember most of these appearances...although I think I had missed The Love Boat and Mork & Mindy, somehow... The only nit I found was regarding Space Academy: The title of that episode should be pronounced as if it were spelled "My Favorite Marsha" (a reference to the old sci-fi comedy "My Favorite Martian" (and not "mar-SEE-uh"!) I really enjoy your videos...thanks for all you hard work!

@tonyleyden2066 6 месяцев назад

With robby doing so many tv appearances did the lost in space robot do any other appoearances in other shows

@legiontheatregroup 7 месяцев назад

If you like thoughtful science fiction you should try to catch Forbidden Planet. There are very good reasons it is considered a classic film. Unusual story - a cautionary tale with a lot of relevance today. And Anne Francis is very easy on the eyes.

@cindydott452 7 месяцев назад

There is no scene in Forbidden Planet where Robby carried Anne Francis. I always hated that lying movie poster!

Poor Robby, the Krell created him before their great disaster, gets brought back to Earth, stars in one B grade movie, then reduced to silly bit parts in crappy shows. (except Twilight Zone) Then the indignity of being cast into the stupidest show of the sixties, Banana Splits.
