Robby the robot was programmed to think it was Sherlock Holmes, and Jerry Mathers (as Darrel Walston) was the robot's caretaker. The robot is convinced that Walston is Dr. Watson, and in the first (and only) episode they set out to track and together they set out to track down an alien (whose robot is played by a Gort look-alike) who has come to Earth to steal power.

I love how the stupid thing lumbers around. It always looks like it's on the verge of waddling over and breaking it's stupid face. They just loved that robot (Robby, The) from the 50's (1956!) through the 70's.

I've got some more Sherlock Holmes and Robots content coming. But not necessarily Sherlock Holmes Robots. I mean, that's weirdly specific. I already found the one.
